Description

Alteplase (Actilyse; Activase), a tissue plasminogen activator prepared by recombination, is a thrombolytic agent that play important roles in acute ischemic stroke, pulmonary embolism, acute myocardial infarction, and occluded catheters[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Alteplase ( 8.3 and 250 μg/mL, 12 h) shows a signifcant reduction in viability of human fetal retinal pigment epithelial (hfRPE cells)[4].
Alteplase (8.3 and 250 μg/mL, 0-6 h) signifcantly decreases the transepithelial resistance in a time-dependent manner and induces cell death in hfRPE cells[4].
Product Information
This product contains L-arginine, phosphoric acid, polysorbate 80, etc. as auxiliary materials. It is suitable for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction, acute massive pulmonary embolism with unstable blood flow, and acute ischemic stroke.

Instructions
The solution can be prepared with sterile water or normal saline (1 mg/mL).

Cell Viability Assay[4]

Cell Line: hfRPE cells
Concentration: 8.3 and 250 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 12 h
Result: Decreased the number of cells that adhered to the cell culture dish, i.e., the number of living cells following treatment of hfRPE cells with 83 μg/ml alteplase for 12 h and 250 μg/ml alteplase for 6 and 12 h.

Immunofluorescence[4]

Cell Line: hfRPE cells
Concentration: 8.3 and 250 μg/mL
Incubation Time: 0-6 h
Result: Increased The number of positive hfRPE cells for both EthD-III and FITC-Annexin V staining.
In Vivo

Alteplase (0.9-10 mg/kg, i.v., 20 to 40 minutes post ictus or 180 and 240 minutes post ictus) is beneficial when given early after stroke onset (<3 hours) and not beneficial when the administration is delayed (≥3 hours) in mice model of thromboembolic stroke[3].

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

Animal Model: Mice model of thromboembolic stroke[3]
Dosage: 0.9-10 mg/kg
Administration: i.v., 20 to 40 minutes post ictus or 180 and 240 minutes post ictus
Result: Significantly reduced the final infarct volume in the early stage.

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.
