Description Nifuroxazide (Diarlidan) is an orally available and cell-permeable nitrofuran-based antidiarrheal agent. It has the inhibitory effect against the activation of cellular STAT1/3/5 transcription.
In vivo Nifuroxazide does not affect the phosphorylation of Akt or MAPK. It inhibits the survival of myeloma cells by reducing the autophosphorylation of Jak kinases, thereby blocking the constitutive phosphorylation of STAT3, but has no effect on normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Nifuroxazide decreases the tyrosine phosphorylation of TYK2 and Jak, demonstrating selectivity towards TYK2 and Jak2 without impacting the tyrosine kinases of the EGF receptor or Src kinase. This effect is achieved through the reduction of Jak kinases' autophosphorylation, leading to the inhibition of constitutive phosphorylation of STAT3 in MM (multiple myeloma) cells and the downregulation of the STAT3 target gene, Mcl-1. Consequently, Nifuroxazide reduces the viability of primary myeloma cells and cell lines with activated STAT3 but does not affect normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells. It also blocks the survival signals provided by bone marrow stromal cells to myeloma cells. Compared to interactions with other cellular pathways, Nifuroxazide shows increased cytotoxicity when combined with the histone deacetylase inhibitor Trichostatin or the MEK inhibitor UO126, targeting STAT3.

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
