Biological Activity

Description Dequalinium Chloride is a PKC inhibitor with IC50 of 7-18 μM, and also a selective blocker of apamin-sensitive K+ channels with IC50 of 1.1 μM.

7 μM-18 μM
In vitro
In vitro Dequalinium chloride (DECA) is a cationic, lipophilic compound with structure similar to the dye rhodamine 123. DECA is selectively accumulated and retained within the mitochondria of carcinoma cells where it acts as a mitochondrial poison by blocking mitochondrial enzymes which can then disrupt cellular energy production, eventually resulting in cell death. Dequalinium Chloride is a blocker of ganglionic transmission (EC50 = 2 μM). [1] Dequalinium is a potent inhibitor of apamin-sensitive K+ channels in hepatocytes and of nicotinic responses in skeletal muscle. Dequalinium blocks angiotensin II-evoked K+ loss with an IC50 of 1.5 μM and also inhibited125I - monoiodoapamin binding with Ki of 1.1 μM. [2] Dequalinium produces a rapid and reversible inhibition of the slow apamin-sensitive component of the afterhyperpolarization (AHP) which follows a single action potential in cultured rat sympathetic neurones. [3] Dequalinium Chloride (DECA) is a dicationic lipophilic PKC inhibitor. When exposed to UV light, DECA covalently binds to and irreversibly inhibits PKCα and PKCβ. [4]

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
