Homogeneous suspension
CMC-NA
≥5mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 5 mg of this product to 1 ml of CMC-Na solution, mix evenly to obtain a homogeneous suspension with a final concentration of 5 mg/ml.
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Bosentan is an endothelin (ET) receptor antagonist for ET-A and ET-B with Ki of 4.7 nM and 95 nM, respectively.
Targets
ET-A ET-B
4.7 nM(Ki) 95 nM(Ki)
In vitro In vitro, bosentan has been shown to improve human endothelial cell and reduce neointimal and smooth muscle proliferation.
In Vivo In pigs in vivo, bosentan has been shown to partially restore hypoxia-induced reductions in nitric oxide.

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[4]

  • Cell Lines

    Human Hepatocytes

  • Concentrations

    1, 10 and 100 µM

  • Incubation Time

    24 h

  • Method

    Incubation solutions containing bosentan (1, 10 and 100 µM) are prepared in cell culture medium. On the sixth day of culturing of the sandwich-cultured hepatocytes, cell culture medium is removed from the wells and incubation solution containing bosentan is added to the cells. The cells were incubated with the solution for 24 h at 37°C. After the exposure, the incubation solution id removed and the cells are rinsed with Plus (+) or Minus (−) buffer. The buffer solution is then removed and the cells are incubated with fresh Plus (+) or Minus (−) buffer for 5 min at 37°C. Following this 5 minute incubation, the buffer solution is collected and any remaining buffer is removed. The cells are then washed three times with ice-cold Plus (+) buffer and the plates are frozen at −80°C until processed for bioanalysis.

Animal Study:

[2]

  • Animal Models

    DSS rats, Wistar rats

  • Dosages

    3 to 600 mg/kg

  • Administration

    oral administration

Customer Product Validation

Effects of TGF-β1, or ET-1, or TGF-β1 plus ET-1 on α-SMA protein levels and Acta2 gene expression in cultured murine lung microvascular endothelial cells(A). α-SMA protein levels. The upper panel shows a Western blot of cell lysates from the same samples shown in Fig 1B probed with α-SMA (upper bands). GAPDH was used as loading control (lower bands). The Bottom panel shows a quantitative densitometry of α-SMA analyzed using NIH Image J software. (B). Acta2 expression. Expression levels of Acta2 determined by semiquantitative RT-PCR. Values represent the mean (+/- standard deviation) expression levels of three replicates of three separate experiments. C(t) values were normalized with Gapdh. The saline control levels were arbitrarily set at 100% expression. Values for other samples are expressed relative to the saline control. Statistical significance was determined by Student
