Product Description

Sinomenine, a naturally occuring alkaloid isolated from the root of the plant Sinomenium acutum, is a blocker of the NF-κB activation with anticancer and anti-inflammatory effects. Sinomenine also is an activator of μ-opioid receptor. It has been used in traditional medicine in China to treat rheumatic arthritis. Sinomenine has a wide spectrum of analgesic effect in rodent models of nociceptive, inflammatory and neuropathic pain.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
NF-κB; μ-opioid receptor
ln Vitro
As the concentration of Sinomenine rose, cell viability gradually declined. Treatment with 0, 0, and 1 mM of Sinomenine significantly reduces the ability of MDA-MB-231 cells to migrate. The wound-healing assay shows that 0.25 and 0.5 mM Sinomenine significantly inhibit wound healing. When the MDA-MB-231 cells are treated with 0.5 mM Sinomenine, the healing progress is approximately 50%, but in the group treated with 0.25 mM Sinomenine and the untreated control, the healing is approximately 80% and nearly 95%, respectively. Sinomenine treatment inhibits NF-κB binding to IB in a dose-dependent manner, as demonstrated by the IκB assay after inhibitor of NF-κB (IκB) antibody IP[1].
ln Vivo
In male rats, sinomenine (i.p.) at a dose of 40 mg/kg results in antinociception in the hot plate and tail flick tests, but not at lower doses (10 or 20 mg/kg). Sinomenine does not have any observable side effects, such as sedation, allergy, or motor impairments, at doses between 10 and 40 mg/kg. In the tail flick test, mice also exhibit antinociception 60 min after receiving 80 mg/kg of Sinomenine intravenously, but not at lower doses (20 or 40 mg/kg). Sinomenine does not cause any observable side effects in mice when administered intravenously at 80 mg/kg. p.o. or i.p. Sinomenine reduces mechanical hypersensitivity in mice with damaged nerves when administered at doses of 40 or 80 mg/kg. I.p. Sinomenine at 40 mg/kg significantly reduces mechanical and cold allodynia for up to 240 minutes without causing motor deficits or sedation, but not at lower doses or when administered as a vehicle[3]. Sinomenine increases the paw withdrawal threshold in a dose-dependent manner at doses of 10 to 40 mg/kg. Sinomenine does not alter the immobility behavior in the forced swimming test in healthy non-chronic constriction injury (CCI) rats at doses between 10 and 40 mg/kg[4].
Cell Assay
In this investigation, the MDA-MB-231 human triple-negative and 4T1 mouse breast cancer cell lines are employed. The cells are grown in 24-well plates at 3.5 104 cells per well for the experiments. According to the manufacturer's recommendations, cell proliferation is assessed after being incubated for 24 or 48 hours in medium containing various concentrations of Sinomenine[1].
Animal Protocol
In this experiment, male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing between 250 and 300 g are employed. Different doses of Sinomenine (10 to 40 mg/kg) are given 1 day after surgery, and the paw withdrawal threshold is then measured every 30 minutes for 4 hours to determine the duration of action of the acute Sinomenine study. Three hours after the daily drug treatment in the study involving Sinomenine, a mechanical hyperalgesia test is conducted. In studies involving antagonists, antagonists were administered 10 min before 40 mg/kg Sinomenine administration[3].

Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
