Ranitidine is a potent, selective and orally active histamine H2-receptor antagonist that inhibits gastric secretion. Ranitidine antagonizes Histamine (HY-B1204)-induced increases of the guinea-pig isolated rat atrium and Histamine-induced relaxations of the rat isolated uterine horn, with pA2 values of 7.2 and 6.95, respectively. Ranitidine inhibits breast tumor development and spread in mice.

Description

Ranitidine is a potent, selective and orally active histamine H2-receptor antagonist that inhibits gastric secretion. Ranitidine antagonizes Histamine (HY-B1204)-induced increases of the guinea-pig isolated rat atrium and Histamine-induced relaxations of the rat isolated uterine horn, with pA2 values of 7.2 and 6.95, respectively. Ranitidine inhibits breast tumor development and spread in mice[1][2].

In Vivo

Ranitidine (0.03-3 mg/kg; i.v.; once) inhibits Histamine (HY-B1204)- and Pentagastrin (HY-A0261)-induced gastric acid secretion in the perfused stomach preparation of the anaesthetized rat[1].
Ranitidine (8 mg/kg; oral administration; administered every other day; treatment for 8 days) reduces the number of CD11b+Ly6Chi cells in the spleen and bone marrow of BALB/c mice[2].
Ranitidine (8 mg/kg; oral administration; administered every other day; treatment for 8 days) inhibits lung metastasis in BALB/c mice bearing 4T1 breast cancer[2].
Ranitidine (8 mg/kg; oral administration; administered every other day; for 14 days) inhibits primary tumor growth in the E0771 breast cancer model of C57BL/6 mice[2].
Ranitidine (dose enabling mice to ingest 6-8 mg/kg per day; added to drinking water; changed every 3 days; treatment starting from weaning (~4 weeks) until the end of the experiment (23-26 weeks)) increases the latency of breast tumorigenesis and reduces the number of tumors in LKB1-/-NIC mice[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Female Wistar rats (100 to 120 g) were anaesthetized with sodium pentobarbitone (50 mg/kg i.p.), and intravenous with Histamine (100 μg/kg/min) or Pentagastrin (1 μg/kg/min)[1].
Dosage: 0.03 mg/kg, 0.1 mg/kg, 0.3 mg/kg, 0.6 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg
Administration: i.v.; once

Dosage: 8 mg/kg
Administration: Oral administration, every other day, 8 days
Result: Decreased the proportion of CD11b+Ly6Chi monocytic cells in the spleen and inhibited lung metastasis.
Animal Model: C57BL/6 female mice (6-8 week old), orthotopic breast cancer model by injecting 200,000 E0771 cells in 100 μL of Matrigel subcutaneously into the mammary fat pad near the fourth nipple[2].
Dosage: 8 mg/kg
Administration: Oral administration, every other day, 8 days

Dosage: 6-8 mg/kg
Administration: Oral administration, every 3 days, from weaning until the end of the experiment

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.95 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.95 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
