In Vitro

Lercanidipine (1, 10 μM, 24 h) exerts suppression of NO, ROS and TNF-a through down-regulation of iNOS, MMP-2/MMP-9, and HMGB1, as well as inhibition of MAPKs, Akt/IkB-a and NF-kB pathways in LPS/IFN-γ-induced VSMCs[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Western Blot Analysis[3]

Cell Line: LPS/IFN-γ-induced VSMC
Concentration: 1 and 10 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Down-regulated LPS/IFN-γ-induced iNOS, MMP-2/-9, NF-kB expression and IkB-a phosphorylation. Decreased cytosolic HMGB1 fraction and extracellular HMGB1 release while increasing nuclear HMGB1 fraction.
In Vivo

Lercanidipine (1, 0.5 and 0.25 mg/kg, i.p., acute administration) significantly reduces neurological deficit score, motor deficits and cerebral infarction volume in the MCAo model rats[3].
Lercanidipine (1.92-0.12 mg/kg, p.o., acute administration) lowers blood pressure effectively and dose-dependently in spontaneous hypertensive rats[4].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Albino male Wistar rats, middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) model[3]
Dosage: 1, 0.5 and 0.25 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.), acute administration
Result: Showed neuroprotective effect in focal cerebral ischemic-reperfusion injury model, most effective dose was found to be at 0.5 mg/kg.
Significantly attenuated percentage infarct volume, significantly improved the apparent diffusion coefficient.
Declined MMP-9 activity significantly in all Lercanidipine treated groups till 240 min post-reperfusion, while MMP-2 activity was inhibited only till 120 min post-reperfusion.
Decreased caspase-3 activity significantly in Lercanidipine 15 and 120 min post-reperfusion groups only. Exhibited significant reduction in caspase-9 activity in all groups except at 240 min post-reperfusion group.
Animal Model: Male SHRs [4]
Dosage: 1.92, 0.96, 0.48, 0.24 and 0.12 mg/kg
Administration: Oral gavage (p.o.), acute administration
Result: Increased the AOC values of mean arterial pressure in a dose-dependent manner (285.4 mmHg×hour for 1.92 mg) as well as decreased BP.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
