    Description

    Triamterene blocks epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) in a voltage-dependent manner, which used as a mild diuretic. Triamterene is an inhibitor of the TGR5 receptor[1][2].

    In Vitro

    Triamterene shows cytotoxicity against HCT116 and CT26 cells, with IC50 values of 31.30 and 24.45 μM[5].
    Triamterene (100 and 200 µM, 2 h) increases lysosomal rupture, decreases integrity of lysosomes, and activates lysophagy in HepG2 cells[6].
    Triamterene (10-100 µM) inhibits the delayed rectifier potassium current in guinea pig ventricular myocytes[7].

    Immunofluorescence[6]

    Cell Line: HepG2 cells
    Concentration: 100 and 200 µM
    Incubation Time: 2 h
    Result: Induced Gal3-puncta formation.
    Induced the translocation of TFEB to the nucleus from the cytosol.
    In Vivo

    Triamterene (10-40 mg/kg/day, p.o., 5 days) shows anticonvulsant effects in seizure models of mice induced by intravenous Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) (0.5%, 1 mL/min), intraperitoneal PTZ (85 mg/kg) and maximal electroshock seizure (MES)[3].
    Triamterene (25 mg/kg) reduces urinary magnesium excretion in conscious saline-loaded rats[4].

    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: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (6.59 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (16.7 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: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (6.59 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (16.7 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.
