Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
Ammonium chloride is a compound commonly used in molecular biology research. As a dipolar compound that regulates pH, it can induce intracellular alkalinization and metabolic acidosis, thereby affecting enzyme activity and biological processes. Additionally, ammonium chloride acts as an inhibitor of autophagy and lysosomal function, and can be used to establish kidney stone models.
In vitro
Ammonium Chloride (NH4Cl) reduces the yield of reovirus during infection of mouse L cells.[2]
In vivo
Ammonium Chloride (0.28 M in drinking water; 8-9-week-old C57B/L6 mice) promotes the survival of myocardial cells in vivo by decreasing contractile dysfunction, cardiac hypertrophy, inflammation, apoptosis and autophagy. Ammonium Chloride effectively improved doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis and cardiac dysfunction in mice.[1]
Disease Modeling Protocol
Kidney stone model
  • Modeling Mechanism:

    Ammonium chloride, when used in combination with 1% ethylene glycol, induces metabolic acidosis, promoting increased renal oxalate excretion while simultaneously lowering urine pH, reducing the dissolution of calcium oxalate crystals, and promoting their deposition in renal tubules. It also synergistically triggers oxidative stress (increased ROS, decreased SOD and GSH-Px activity) and renal epithelial cell apoptosis (upregulation of cleaved caspase-3), ultimately leading to the formation of calcium oxalate kidney stones.

  • Related Products:

    Ammonium chloride (T64755)

  • Modeling Method:

    Experimental Subject:

    Rats, Sprague-Dawley, Male, 230±20g, 6-8 weeks old

    Dosage and Administration Route:

    1% ethylene glycol+2% ammonium chloride mixture, 2 mL/animal, Oral gavage

    Dosing Frequency and Duration Model:

    Once daily, for 28 consecutive days

  • Validation:

    1. Physiological indicators: Serum urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CR) levels were significantly elevated, indicating renal function impairment; 2. Pathological indicators: Von Kossa staining showed a large amount of black calcium oxalate crystal deposition in renal tubules; HE staining revealed inflammatory infiltration and structural damage in renal tissue; 3. Molecular and biochemical indicators: ROS and MDA content in renal tissue was elevated, while SOD and GSH-Px activities were decreased; Western blotting showed upregulated expression of NOX2, α-SMA, and cleaved caspase-3 proteins, and downregulated SOD2 expression; 4. Functional verification: RNA-seq detection showed that differentially expressed genes in the kidney were enriched in pathways related to glutathione metabolism and peroxidase, which are associated with stone formation.

*Precautions: After euthanizing the animal on day 28, the kidneys were quickly separated.

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the stock solution preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:
TargetMol | Animal experiments For example, if the intended dosage is 10 mg/kg for animals weighing 20 g , with a dosing volume of 100 μL per animal, TargetMol | Animal experiments and a total of 10 animals are to be administered, using a formulation of TargetMol | reagent 10% DMSO+ 40% PEG300+ 5% Tween 80+ 45% Saline/PBS/ddH2O , the resulting working solution concentration would be 2 mg/mL.
Stock Solution Preparation:

Dissolve 2 mg of the compound in 100 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent to obtain a stock solution at a concentration of 20 mg/mL . If the required concentration exceeds the compound's known solubility, please contact us for technical support before proceeding.

Preparation of the In Vivo Formulation:

1) Add 100 μL of the DMSOTargetMol | reagent stock solution to 400 μL PEG300TargetMol | reagent and mix thoroughly until the solution becomes clear.

2) Add 50 μL Tween 80 and mix well until fully clarified.

3) Add 450 μL Saline,PBS or ddH2OTargetMol | reagent and mix thoroughly until a homogeneous solution is obtained.
