Description Latanoprost (Xalatan) is a prostaglandin F2alpha analogue and a prostanoid selective FP receptor agonist with an ocular hypertensive effect.
In vitro Latanoprost functioned as both an indirect activator of AMP-activated protein kinase and a selective retinoid X receptor α (RXRα) antagonist able to selectively antagonise the transcription of a RXRα/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ heterodimer[2]. Latanoprost induced morphological abnormality and viability decline of HCS cells in vitro. It induces cell cycle arrest of HCS cells. Latanoprost induces abnormal changes of plasma membrane, DNA fragmentation and ultrastructural abnormality of HCS cells. Caspase activation in HCS cells is also activated by Latanoprost treatment. Latanoprost induces MTP disruption and quantitative changes of mitochondrion-associated pro-apoptotic regulators in HCS cells[1]. Latanoprost is effective in inhibiting adipogenesis, reducing lipogenesis, promoting fatty acid oxidation and enhancing GLUT4 translocation and glucose uptake both in adipocytes and myotubes[2].
In vivo Latanoprost, a clinical drug for treating primary open-angle glaucoma and intraocular hypertension, effectively ameliorates glucose and lipid disorders in two mouse models of type 2 diabetes. Its treatment improves glucose tolerance. Chronic administration of latanoprost decreases serum lipids and enhances insulin signalling in white adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. It effectually activates AMPK and regulates glucose and lipid metabolism-relevant genes in diabetic mice[2].
Cell Research HCS cells were inoculated into a 24-well culture plate (Nunc) and cultured in 10% FBS-DMEM/F12 medium at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 incubator. After the cells grew into logarithmic phase, the culture medium of each culture plate well was replaced entirely with the medium containing latanoprost at concentrations varying from 50 mg/l to 0.78125 mg/l, respectively. The cells were cultured under the same condition as described earlier, and their morphology and growth status were monitored every 4 h under an Eclipse TS100 inverted microscope.(Only for Reference)

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

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed n the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
