In Vitro

Cilnidipine inhibits the L-type current with an IC50 of 100 nM in neurons pretreated with omegaCgTx plus omegaAgTx[1].
The IC50 for Cilnidipine in respect of the N-type current is 200 nM[1].
Cilnidipine dose- and time-dependently inhibits Ba2+ currents in A7r5 cells with the IC50 at 10 nM after 10 min[2].
Cilnidipine dose-dependently inhibits depolarization- and Ca2+-induced contractions of rat aortic rings, with an IC50 of 10 nM at 10 min[2].
The viability of nPC12 cells show no significant change up to 150?μM Cilnidipine, but it decreases slightly in the cells treated with greater than 200?μM Cilnidipine[3].
Cilnidipine (100 μM, 2 hours) treatment increases the expression of p85aPI3K p-Akt, p-GSK-3β, and heat shock transcription factor (HSTF-1), and decreases levels of cytosolic cytochrome c, activated caspase 3, and cleaved PARP[3].

Western Blot Analysis

Cell Line: nPC12 cells
Concentration: 100 μM
Incubation Time: 2 hours
Result: Increased the IRs of p58a PI3K, p-Akt, p-GSK-3β, and HSTF-1 and decreased the Immunoreactivities (IRs) of cytosolic cytochrome c, activated caspase 3 (17 kDa), and cleaved PARP (85 kDa).
In Vivo

Cilnidipine has potent inhibitory actions on N-type as well as L-type voltage-dependent Ca2+-channel in rat dorsal root ganglion neurons[1].
Administration of Cilnidipine (10 mg/kg) and Nimodipine (10 mg/kg) significantly attenuates the immobilized stress-induced behavioral changes and restored memory deficits along with normalization of the corticosterone levels[4].
Cilnidipine and Nimodipine produce comparable beneficial effects in restoring immobilization stress subjected mice[4].
Oral administration of Cilnidipine (3 mg/kg) markedly lowers both systolic and diastolic blood pressure 1 hr after administration in 2K1C renal hypertensive dogs[5].

Animal Model: Swiss albino mice weighing 25±5 g[4]
Dosage: 5 and 10 mg/kg
Administration: administered i.p. 30 min prior to immobilization stress
Result: Cilnidipine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) and nimodipine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) 30 min prior to subjecting immobilization stress resulted in significant attenuation of immobilization stress-induced decrease in locomotor activity.
Administration with Cilnidipine (5 mg/kg, i.p.) and Nimodipine (5 mg/kg, i.p.) did not show any significant effect on the stressed mice.
Administration of Cilnidipine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) and Nimodipine (10 mg/kg, i.p.) in the non-stressed mice, and vehicle in the stressed mice did not modulate locomotor activity in a significant manner.

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.08 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.08 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

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.
