Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
angiotensin II receptor
In vitro
Valsartan dose-dependently inhibits the vasoconstriction induced by angiotensin II and lowers blood pressure in renin-dependent models of hypertension. This compound is at least as effective as ACE inhibitors, diuretics, beta-blockers and calcium antagonists.
In vivo
Valsartan results in improved glucose tolerance, reduced fasting blood glucose levels, and reduced serum insulin levels in mice fed a Western diet. This compound treatment also blocks Western diet-induced increases in serum levels of the proinflammatory cytokines interferon-gamma and monocyte chemotactic protein 1. It enhances mitochondrial function and prevents Western diet-induced decreases in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in the pancreatic islets of mice. This treatment blocks or attenuates Western diet-induced changes in expression of several key inflammatory signals: interleukin 12p40, interleukin 12p35, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interferon-gamma, adiponectin, platelet 12-lipoxygenase, collagen 6, inducible NO synthase, and AT1R in isolated adipocytes. It significantly increases insulin-mediated 2-[3H]deoxy-d-glucose (2-[3H]DG) uptake into skeletal muscle and attenuates the increase in plasma glucose concentration after a glucose load and plasma concentrations of glucose and insulin. This chemical treatment exaggerates the insulin-induced phosphorylation of IRS-1, the association of IRS-1 with the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI 3-K), PI 3-K activity, and translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane. It also reduces tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) expression and superoxide production in skeletal muscle of KK-Ay mice.
