Trimebutine maleate is a multi-target inhibitor and opioid receptor agonist with antimuscarinic activity. Trimebutine maleate inhibits L-type Ca2+ channels and large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (BKCa channels), thereby inhibiting extracellular calcium influx and potassium ion efflux. Trimebutine maleate also targets Toll-like receptors, inhibits Toll-like receptor 2/4/7/8/9 signals, and inhibits LPS-induced IRAK1 activation, as well as ERK1/2, JNK and NF-κB activation, thereby exerting anti-inflammatory effects. Trimebutine maleate also induces tumor cell apoptosis by inhibiting the AKT/ERK pathway. Trimebutine maleate also inhibits excessive contraction of smooth muscle and can be used in the study of gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

In Vitro

Trimebutine maleate (0-1000 μM; 48 h) significantly inhibits the viability of SHG44, U251, and U-87 MG glioma cells, with IC50 of 98.28 μM, 128.27 μM, and 204.06 μM, respectively, and has low toxicity to normal HEB cells[1].
Trimebutine maleate (0-200 μM; 24-72 h) inhibits the migration of U-87 MG cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner[1].
Trimebutine maleate (0-200 μM; 48-72 h) induces apoptosis in glioma cells, downregulates Bcl-2, upregulates Bax and activates Caspase-3, while inhibiting the phosphorylation of AKT (Ser473) and ERK (Thr202/Tyr204)[1].

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: SHG44, U251, U-87 MG
Concentration: 0, 10, 50, 100, 200 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h and 72 h
Result: Reduced phosphorylated AKT (Ser473) and ERK (Thr202/Tyr204) levels in a dose-dependent manner at both time points, while total AKT and ERK protein levels remained unchanged.
The inhibition was more pronounced at 72 h for higher concentrations (100-200 μM).
In Vivo

Trimebutine (100 mg/kg/day; intraperitoneal injection; once a day; 7 days) maleate inhibits tumor growth in the subcutaneous xenograft model of U-87 MG glioma in female nude mice, increases TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells in tumor tissues, downregulates Bcl-2, upregulated Bax, and inhibits p-AKT and p-ERK signaling pathways[1].
Trimebutine (50 mg/kg; oral; single dose) maleate significantly reduces pain response at 60 mmHg pressure in the colorectal distension model of male mice after 4 hours of treatment, exhibits weaker overall effect than GIC-1001 (HY-B0380B) at an equimolar dose[2].

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

Animal Model: Female nude mice (4-week-old), subcutaneous U-87 MG glioblastoma xenograft model[1]
Dosage: 100 mg/kg/day Trimebutine
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.), once daily for 7 days, starting when tumors reached ~2 mm3; monitored at days 7, 10, 14, 16, 18, 21.
Result: Significantly reduced tumor volume compared to the vehicle control group, with final tumor weight decreasing by ~30%. Histological analysis showed increased TUNEL-positive apoptotic cells in tumor sections.
Downregulated Bcl-2 and upregulated Bax protein levels, along with reduced phosphorylation of AKT (Ser473) and ERK (Thr202/Tyr204), indicating modulation of apoptotic and proliferative signaling pathways.
No significant toxicity was observed in treated mice, as body weight and general activity remained comparable to controls.

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 (4.96 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 (4.96 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.

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.
