Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
L-NAME hydrochloride is an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) with an IC₅₀ of 70 μM, and it can be used to induce hypertension and kidney injury models.
Targets&IC50
eNOS:39 nM(Ki), nNOS:15 nM(Ki)
In vivo
L-NAME (0.03-300 mg kg-1, i.v.) induces a dose-dependent increase in mean systemic arterial blood pressure accompanied by bradycardia. L-NAME (100 mg kg-1, i.v.) inhibits significantly the hypotensive responses to ACh and bradykinin. The increase in blood pressure and bradycardia produced by L-NAME is reversed by L-arginine (30-100 mg kg-1, i.v.) in a dose-dependent manner. [2]
Disease Modeling Protocol
Chronic kidney disease model;Hypertension model
  • Modeling Mechanism:

    L-NAME hydrochloride, as a specific inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), inhibits nitric oxide (NO) synthesis by blocking the activity of endothelial, inducible, and neuronal NOS. NO deficiency leads to vascular smooth muscle relaxation dysfunction and sympathetic nerve activation, resulting in vasoconstriction and increased peripheral resistance, ultimately leading to persistent hypertension. It is also accompanied by renal oxidative stress (glutathione metabolism disorder), renal tubular damage, and glomerular sclerosis.

  • Modeling Method:

    Experimental Subject:

    Rats, Sprague-Dawley (SD), Male, Body weight 330–390 g

    Dosage and Administration Route:

    ① Loading dose: 1.5 mg/100 g body weight L-NAME hydrochloride, Intravenous injection (i.v.), Single administration;
    ② Maintenance dose: 150 mg/L L-NAME hydrochloride solution, free access, replacing conventional drinking water;
    Control treatment: Control group administered equal volume saline solution via tail vein injection+conventional drinking water;

    Dosing Frequency and Duration Model:

    ① Loading dose: Single administration;
    ② Maintenance dose: Continuous free access for 21 consecutive days;

  • Validation:

    1. Blood pressure indicators: Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and mean arterial pressure were significantly elevated (p<0.05), while heart rate was significantly decreased. Blood pressure steadily increased from day 7 until the experimental endpoint. 2. Oxidative stress: Serum and renal tissue levels of reduced glutathione (GSH) were decreased, while serum levels of oxidized glutathione (Ox-GSH) were increased (p<0.05). 3. Pathological indicators: Renal tissue showed renal tubular damage, cast formation, glomerular sclerosis, and peritubular fibrosis (significantly elevated scores, p<0.05); Immunohistochemistry showed a significant upregulation of the immunoreactivity of endothelial NOS (eNOS) and inducible NOS (iNOS) in renal tissue (p<0.05). 4. Biochemical indicators: Serum sodium (Na⁺) levels were significantly decreased (p<0.05), while serum urea and creatinine levels showed no significant abnormalities, and creatinine clearance remained stable.

*Precautions: On day 21, after euthanizing the animals, the blood was centrifuged to separate serum (and stored at -80°C), and the kidneys were partially fixed in 10% formalin for pathological examination. A portion was flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen for the detection of oxidative stress indicators.

Kinase Assay
Enzyme Assay: The oxidation of L-arginine is monitored by the conversion of [3H]- or [14C]-arginine to L-citrulline which separates L-citrulline from L-arginine by Dowex 50x8-200 (Na) chromatography. Typical reaction mixtures (100 pL) contains 50 mM HEPES, pH 7.0, 8 pM tetrahydrobiopterin, 1 mM CaC12, 0.01 mg/mL calmodulin, 0.5 mM EDTA, 0.450 pM [14C]-arginine (30000 cpm), and 100-200 pM NADPH. The cNOS-catalyzed oxidation of NADPH to NADP+ is monitored by the reduction of absorbance at 340 nm with a Kontron 860 spectrophotometer in a volume of 300 pL. All reactions are at 30 ℃ unless otherwise indicated.
Cell Research
rMC-1 cells are incubated in 5 or 25 mM glucose, with or without l-NAME (1 mM). Media is changed every other day for up to 5 days. BREC cells are incubated in 5 or 25 mM glucose as well as inhibitor as described above for 5 days. Cell death is determined by light microscopy using a hemocytometer and a 0.4% trypan blue dye exclusion method. The number of cells that do not exclude the dye is expressed per 1,000 total cells. A minimum of 800 cells is counted per assay (8 dishes, >100 cells counted per dish), and the assay is replicated three times on different days. (Only for Reference)
