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
mineralocorticoid receptor [1]
In vivo
Eplerenone inhibits upregulated phosphorylation of PKCepsilon, MAP kinase, and p90RSK in Dahl salt-sensitive hypertensive (DS) rats. This compound increases downregulated endothelial nitric oxide synthase mRNA in Dahl salt-sensitive hypertensive (DS) rats. Its administration results in significant improvement in glomerulosclerosis and urinary protein in DS rats. [1] This compound (200 mg/kg/day) administration significantly decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure by 12% and 11%, respectively, compared with untreated mice. It increases serum susceptibility to lipid peroxidation decreased by as much as 26%, and serum paraoxonase activity in mice. This chemical significantly reduces the atherosclerotic lesion area in aortas of mice, and this effect is reversed by AT-II. [2] It 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] This compound significantly decreases LV end-diastolic wall stress in dogs. It 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] This chemical 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.
