Description Aloxistatin (E64d) is an inhibitor of cysteine protease with blood platelet aggregation inhibiting activity. Aloxistatin is an irreversible, membrane-permeable inhibitor of lysosomal and cytosolic cysteine proteases with the ability to inhibit calpain activity in intact platelets.
In vitro Aloxistatin can enter the intact platelet and inhibit proteolysis by inhibiting calpain. [2] Aloxistatin blunts Parathyroid hormone (PTH)-induced cell proliferation and inhibits differentiation osteoblasts in vitro. [3]
In vivo Aloxistatin (100 mg/kg, p.o.) strongly inhibits the cathepsin B&L activities in the skeletal muscle, heart and liver of hamsters. [1] In spinal cord injury (SCI) rats, Aloxistatin provides neuroprotection in SCI lesion and penumbra. [4] Aloxistatin reduces brain amyloid-β and improves memory deficits in Alzheimer's disease animal models by inhibiting cathepsin B activity. [5]
Kinase Assay The CTLs and NK cells (0.8×106/mL) are treated with the inhibitors L1 (10-20 μM) or Aloxistatin (20-30 μM) for 24 hr at 37°C in 24-well plates. Cells are then used in 51Cr-release assays or are lysed to examine perforin in Western blots. The inhibitor is also added at the same concentration during the 4 hr reactions in some 51Cr-release assays, as indicated. Cell lysates are prepared using NP-40 lysis buffer (25 mM HEPES, 250 mM NaCl, 2.5 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, 0.1% volume/volume Nonidet P-40) and total protein concentration is determined using the Bradford assay. Equal amounts of protein are loaded and resolved on 8% SDS-PAGE gels. Human or mouse perforin is detected using the appropriate antibodies as indicated. Anti-actin antibody is used as a loading control[2].
Cell Research Aloxistatin (E64d) is dissolved in DMSO and stored, and then diluted with appropriate medium (final DMSO 0.1 %) before use[3]. Cell proliferation and apoptosis are assessed by staining for a proliferation marker, Ki67, or an apoptotic marker, cleaved caspase 3, following the protocol described above for the polarity markers. MCF10 variants are grown in 3D rBM overlay cultures for 4 days and are treated with 0.1 % DMSO, 5 μM CA074Me or 5 μM Aloxistatin. The percentage of structures that are positive for Ki67 or cleaved caspase 3 is determined by counting a total of 100 structures on two separate coverslips with a Zeiss Axiophot epifluorescent microscope. Structures are considered Ki67 positive if they contained at least one cell staining for Ki67. Structures are considered to be caspase 3 positive if they contained at least one cell that is positive for cleaved caspase 3 and the positive cell(s) is not localized in the center of a developing lumen[3].

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box
