Vecuronium (ORG NC 45) is a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent widely used as an adjunct to general anesthesia, to facilitate endotracheal intubation and to provide skeletal muscle relaxation during surgery or mechanical ventilation. . Vecuronium inhibits both forms of the muscle-type acetylcholine receptor with IC50 of 1-2 mM. Vecuronium combined with methylprednisolone shows additive effects on both receptor forms, which is best described by a two-site model, with each site independent. Vecuronium interferes with nicotinic processes in the carotid body and inhibits the chemoreceptor neural response to hypoxia. Vecuronium significantly attenuates the increase in CSNA (DeltaCSNA) in response to hypoxia in the carotid body.
ln Vitro |
In adrenal medullary cells, vecuronium bromide (0-100 μM, 15 min) decreases [3H] norepinephrine (NE) uptake to 65% at 100 μM[1]. In a concentration-dependent manner, vecuronium bromide (0-15 μM, 72 hours) suppresses the proliferation and migration of cancer cells[2]. When combined with cisplatin, vecuronium bromide (0–15 μM, 72 hours) can dramatically lower cell viability[2].

ln Vivo |
In Wister rats, vecuronium bromide (intravenous injection, 0–5 μM, every 30 min, 2 hours) suppresses the carotid body's neural response to acetylcholine (ACh) and attenuates the response of carotid sinus nerve activity (CSNA) to hypoxia in a dose-dependent manner[3].

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (3.26 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
