Tat-Gap 19 TFA

Catalog No. T83682

Tat-Gap 19, a peptide inhibitor of connexin43 (Cx43) hemichannels, is derived from the HIV-1 Tat protein transduction domain fused with a nine-amino acid sequence from Cx43 residues 128-136. This compound, at a concentration of 10 µM, effectively suppresses glutamate-induced ATP release in primary rat hepatocytes, indicating inhibition of Cx43 hemichannel activity. Furthermore, Tat-Gap 19 demonstrates therapeutic potential by significantly reducing infarct volume in a mouse cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model following middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) at a dosage of 25 mg/kg. Moreover, its intraperitoneal administration at 1 mg/kg per day ameliorates fibrosis and decreases the area of hepatic stellate cells, the precursors to myofibroblasts, expressing α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), in a model of thioacetamide-induced liver damage. Additionally, it enhances superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in hepatic cells from the treated mice, indicating its antioxidative benefits.

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
