Description of Heptamidine

Heptamidine (SBi4211) is a potent Pentamidine-related inhibitor of the calcium-binding protein S100B (Kd=6.9 μM), selectively kills melanoma cells with S100B over those without S100B[1]. Heptamidine is a useful tool for the investigation of Myotonic dystrophy (DM)[2].

Heptamidine is a Pentamidine-S100B complex, two molecules of pentamidine bind per monomer of S100B, which performs to be an inhibitor for S100B[1].Heptamidine (20 μM) does not decrease CUG levels significantly when compares to Propamidine and Pentamidine, and exhibits cytotoxic at concentrations above 17.5 μM in HeLa cells expressing 960 CUG repeats[2].Heptamidine rescues mis-splicing of minigene reporters in a HeLa cell DM1 model with an EC50 value of 15 μM[2].

Heptamidine (intraperitoneal injection; 20 or 30 mg/kg; 7 days) causes a dose-dependent reduction of exon 7a inclusion in HSALR mice, returning to wild type levels (6±1%) when at 20 mg/kg dose, the myotonia is reduced from grade 3 to grade 1 (occasional myotonic discharge) or grade 0 at both 20 or 30 mg/kg[2]. Animal Model: Homozygous HSALR transgenic mice in line 20b (FVB inbred background) with a Myotonic dystrophy (DM) mouse model[2]

Solubility Storage
General tips Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time.
Shipping Condition Evaluation sample solution: shipped with blue ice. All other sizes available: with RT, or with Blue Ice upon request.

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
