Amlodipine Besylate

SKU: orb1226970

Description

Amlodipine Besylate is a long-acting calcium channel blocker.(In Vitro):Amlodipine besylate (20-40 μM; 48 h) reduces BrdU incorporation to 68.6% and 26.3% at concentrations of 20 and 30 μM in A431 cells, respectively.Amlodipine besylate (30 μM; pretreated for 1 h) significantly attenuates the uridine 5′-triphosphate (UTP)-induced increases of [Ca2+]i in A431 cells.Amlodipine besylate (30 μM) inhibits the store-operated Ca2+influx evoked by Thapsigargin in Fluo-3-loaded cells.(In Vivo):Amlodipine besylate (5 mg/kg/day; s.c. for 2 weeks) significantly decreases systolic blood pressure (SBP) in VSMC ATP2B1 KO mice.Amlodipine besylate (10 mg/kg; i.p. once daily for 20 days) causes a significant retardation of tumor growth and prolongs the survival of A431 tumor-bearing mice.

Bioactivity

• In Vivo:
  Amlodipine besylate (5 mg/kg/day; s. c. for 2 weeks) significantly decreases systolic blood pressure (SBP) in VSMC ATP2B1 KO mice. Amlodipine besylate (10 mg/kg; i.p. once daily for 20 days) causes a significant retardation of tumor growth and prolongs the survival of A431 tumor-bearing mice. Animal model: ATP2B1loxP/loxP mice. Dosage: 5 mg/kg/day. Administration: Subcutaneously implanted osmotic pump for 2 weeks. Result: Significantly decreased the blood pressure.
