Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
Evans blue (C.I. 23860) is an effective inhibitor of glutamate uptake by synaptic vesicles and also acts as an antagonist of AMPA/kainate receptors. As an azo dye, Evans blue binds to serum albumin, enabling detection of blood-brain barrier integrity and permeability.
Targets&IC50
AMPA:220 nM, kainate receptor:150 nM, Glutamate uptake (vesicular):87 nM, CaMK IIa:197.1 nM, AMPA receptor subtype:355 nM
In vitro
Evans Blue is found to be inhibiting DNA binding of NF-κB at a low concentration of 100 μM[1]. It has proven over the years to be a dependable stain for microscopic determination of cell death[2]. Evans Blue is also a known blocker of a subset of a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole/kainate receptors (IC50=355 nM) for the subunit combination GluR1,2[5]. Evans blue is the first known δ-subunit-specific antagonist of ENaC and activates large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels in sheep bladder myocytes and cultured endothelial cells of human umbilical veins[5].
In vivo
Evans blue pretreatment could inhibit the mast cells degranulation and that may be the main mechanism for prevent animals from C48/80-triggered anaphylaxis and systemic inflammation[4]. Evans blue modulates the non-N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor in rat thalamic neurons, blocks the P2X-purinergic receptor in rat vas deferens, and inhibits the glutamate transporter in rat brain synaptic vesicles[6].

In Vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution)

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.
