| In vivo | Eplerenone inhibits upregulated phosphorylation of PKCepsilon, MAP kinase, and p90RSK in Dahl salt-sensitive hypertensive (DS) rats. Eplerenone increases downregulated endothelial nitric oxide synthase mRNA in Dahl salt-sensitive hypertensive (DS) rats. Eplerenone administration results in significant improvement in glomerulosclerosis and urinary protein in DS rats. [1] Eplerenone (200 mg/kg/day) administration significantly decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 12% and 11%, respectively, compared with untreated mice. Eplerenone increases serum susceptibility to lipid peroxidation decreased by as much as 26%, and serum paraoxonase activity in mice. Eplerenone significantly reduces the atherosclerotic lesion area in aortas of mice, and this effect is reversed by AT-II. [2] Eplerenone increases total vessel area by 30% and luminal area by nearly 60% compared with the no-treatment group, without affecting neointima size in pigs. [3] Eplerenone significantly decreases LV end-diastolic wall stress in dogs. Eplerenone is associated with a 28% reduction in cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area, a 37% reduction of volume fraction of reactive interstitial fibrosis, and a 34% reduction of volume fraction of replacement fibrosis in dogs with heart failure. [4] Eplerenone blunts the increase in pulse pressure in Aldo rats and normalized Einc-wall stress curves, medial cross-sectional area (MCSA), and EIIIA fibronectin in aldosterone (Aldo)-salt hypertensive rats.

Bio Calculators
Molarity Calculator
Calculate the mass, volume or concentration required for a solution. The Selleck molarity calculator is based on the following equation:
Mass (g) = Concentration (mol/L) × Volume (L) × Molecular Weight (g/mol)
*When preparing stock solutions, please always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the via label and MSDS / COA (available on product pages).
Dilution Calculator
Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution. The Selleck dilution calculator is based on the following equation:
Concentration (start) x Volume (start) = Concentration (final) x Volume (final)
This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2 ( Input Output )
* When preparing stock solutions always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the vial label and MSDS / COA (available online).

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
