Levosimendan (OR1259) is a calcium sensitizer used in the management of acutely decompensated congestive heart failure. It increases the sensitivity of the heart to calcium, thus increasing cardiac contractility without a rise in intracellular calcium. Levosimendan exerts its effect by increasing calcium sensitivity of myocytes by binding to cardiac troponin C in a calcium-dependent manner.

Product Introduction

Levosimendan AI Summary
Levosimendan exhibits multiple pharmacological activities. It shows calcium sensitizing activity with an EC50 value exceeding 100,000.0 nM and an inhibitory effect on phosphodiesterase 3 with an IC50 of 8.0 nM. In terms of pharmacokinetics, it has a high level of plasma protein binding (Fu = 0.02), a small volume of distribution at steady state (Vdss = 0.24 L/kg), a short mean residence time (1.1 hr), a short half-life (1.1 hr), and a moderate clearance rate (3.8 mL/min/kg). These properties suggest rapid clearance and limited distribution in the body. The compound demonstrates anticongestive activity by affecting blood pressure in rats at a dose of 50 mg/kg and displays inhibitory activity against human tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) and the entry of Ebola virus in various screening assays. Additionally, it shows modest antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2, including inhibition of viral-induced cytotoxicity in Caco-2 and VERO-6 cells. However, the inhibition rates vary and are generally low, such as 2.45% cytotoxicity inhibition in Caco-2 cells at 10 uM and 2.206% inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 3CL-Pro protease at 20 µM. In assays targeting human HDAC6, Levosimendan exhibits varied inhibition levels, achieving -74.4% inhibition with commercial peptide substrates. It also aids in the prevention of doxorubicin-induced mortality in Zebrafish, showing a dose-dependent increase in survival rate, with the highest activity observed at 40 uM (74.0%). Overall, Levosimendan shows promise in several therapeutic areas including heart failure, viral infections, and cancer treatment..

Bioactivity
Description
Levosimendan (OR1259) is a calcium sensitizer used in the management of acutely decompensated congestive heart failure. It increases the sensitivity of the heart to calcium, thus increasing cardiac contractility without a rise in intracellular calcium. Levosimendan exerts its effect by increasing calcium sensitivity of myocytes by binding to cardiac troponin C in a calcium-dependent manner.
In vitro
Levosimendan caused contraction and relaxation of failing human cardiomyocytes, with a mean maximum increase in twitch tension of 47% at 0.8 μM Levosimendan.Levosimendan induced a rapid dose-dependent increase in hemodynamic functions in patients with compensated heart failure.Levosimendan caused a significant hyperpolarization (EPS) of resting potential (EPS) in rat mesenteric artery myocytes. The resting potential of rat mesenteric artery myocytes was markedly hyperpolarized by Levosimendan (EC50: 2.9 μM), with a maximal effect at 10 μM (19.5 mV), which may be produced by activation of glibenclamide-sensitive K+ channels.Levosimendan (3 μM) reduced the Ca50 from 2.73 μM to 1.19 μM.

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.
