SDS COA Handling Instructions

Meclofenamic acid (Meclofenamate) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent. Meclofenamic acid is a highly selective FTO (fat mass and obesity-associated) enzyme inhibitor. Meclofenamic acid competes with FTO binding for the m(6)A-containing nucleic acid. Meclofenamic acid is a non-selective gap-junction blocker. Meclofenamic acid inhibits hKv2.1 and hKv1.1, with IC50 values of 56.0 and 155.9 μM, respectively.

    The effect of FTO inhibitor Meclofenamate sodium (MS) (80 μM and 120 μM) on ATF4 protein expression and mTORC1 activity during 968 treatment is detected by western blotting. MS efficiently reduces ATF4 expression and rescues the mTOR downregulation induced by compound 968.

    Description

    Meclofenamic acid (Meclofenamate) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent. Meclofenamic acid is a highly selective FTO (fat mass and obesity-associated) enzyme inhibitor. Meclofenamic acid competes with FTO binding for the m(6)A-containing nucleic acid. Meclofenamic acid is a non-selective gap-junction blocker. Meclofenamic acid inhibits hKv2.1 and hKv1.1, with IC50 values of 56.0 and 155.9 μM, respectively[1][2][3][4].

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 1 μM (cyclooxygenase), 56.0 μM (hKv2.1), 155.9 μM (hKv1.1)[3]

    In Vitro

    Meclofenamic acid (0-100 μM, 24 h) inhibits FTO demethylation in a dose-response manner[1].
    Meclofenamic acid inhibits enzyme cyclooxygenase, with an IC50 about 1 μM, thereby inhibiting the production of prostaglandins[2].
    Meclofenamic acid inhibits the release of 5-HETE and LTB4 from human neutrophils stimulated with calcium ionophore and antagonizes the response of tissues to certain prostaglandins[2].

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

    Western Blot Analysis[1]

    Cell Line: HeLa cells
    Concentration: 0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 μM
    Incubation Time: 24 h
    Result: Inhibited FTO demethylation in a dose-response manner, and elevates the levels of cellular m6A in mRNA by targeting FTO.

    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 (8.44 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% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.44 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 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

      Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

    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.
