Description

N-Nitrosomorpholine is a photosensitive nitrosamine that is carcinogenic and can be used to construct animal cancer models[1].

In Vivo

N-Nitrosomorpholine can be used in animal modeling to create tumor models.
Induction of liver disease[1][2]
Background
High doses of N-Nitrosomorpholine can cause livers to show significant cytoplasmic and nuclear changes, leading to toxic damage. N-Nitrosomorpholine toxicity causes single cell necrosis, loss of glycogen in the gland center; and induces giant cell production, bile duct proliferation and fibrosis. At the 4th week of N-Nitrosomorpholine treatment, cirrhosis will be obvious, accompanied by bile duct fibrosis, cholangiomas and multiple hepatocellular nodules. At weeks 15 and 20, cirrhosis worsens. At weeks 20 to 25, a large number of nodules continue to be induced. At weeks 30 to 40, metastatic liver cancer appears and causes death in animals[3].
Specific Modeling Methods
Mice[1]: B6C3FI hybrid • male • 11 weeks of age • average weight of 27 g
Administration: 160 mg/L • mixed in drinking water • daily for 80 weeks
Rat[2]: Sprague Dawley• male• weighing about 200 g
Administration: 200 mg/L• mixed in drinking water• daily for 80 weeks
Note
(1) Before the experiment, the rats were kept under constant conditions of 22°C, light-dark cycle for 12 hours and received Altromin granule diet and free tap water.
(2) After killing the rats with a rapid spinal dislocation, Livers were quickly extirpated and pieces of about 1 cm x 0.5 cm from the right and left liver lobe were frozen in liquid nitrogen-cooled isopentane and stored at -80 °C.
Modeling Indicators
Molecular changes: serum glutamate-oxaloacetate aminotransferase level ↑; focal glycogen hyperplasia ↑.
Histological analysis: liver damage with loss of lobular architecture and large necrotic areas. Necrotic areas are surrounded by "giant cells" (hepatocytes with irregular size and shape, enlarged nuclei and eosinophilic inclusions) and inflammatory cells. Regenerative nodules appear.
Pathological changes: G6P enzyme-negative and -positive lesions appear, and the average diameter of G6P enzyme-negative and -positive lesions increases.
Opposite Product(s): 3,4,3',4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl

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 (21.53 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 (21.53 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.
