Handling Instructions Technical Support

Actarit (4-Acetylaminophenylacetic acid) is an orally active Carbonic Anhydrase II (CAII) inhibitor with an IC50 of 422 nM. Actarit shows suppressive effects experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in rats. Actarit inhibits the development of type ll collagen (CII)-induced arthritis in mice by suppressing delayed-type hypersensitivity to CII.

Description

Actarit (4-Acetylaminophenylacetic acid) is an orally active Carbonic Anhydrase II (CAII) inhibitor with an IC50 of 422 nM. Actarit shows suppressive effects experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in rats. Actarit inhibits the development of type ll collagen (CII)-induced arthritis in mice by suppressing delayed-type hypersensitivity to CII. Actarit can be used for the study of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and rheumatoid arthritis[1][2][3][4].

In Vivo

Actarit (300 mg/kg, i.p., from day 8 to 14 after immunization or day 0 to 7 after cell transfer) shows suppressive effects on clinical manifestations and pathological findings of both actively induced and adoptively transferred experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in Lewis rats[1].
Actarit (3-300 mg/kg, p.o., once daily, 4 days) activates CD4+ suppressor T-cells in the Peyer's patches (PP), resulting in a specific suppression of IgA production after LPS (HY-D1056) stimulation in mice[4].

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

Animal Model: Naive male Lewis rats (2-3 months old) were subcutaneously inoculated with 75 mg of guinea-pig myelin basic protein peptide 68-86 in complete Freund’s adjuvant containing 5 mg/ml of H37RA into the hind footpads to induce actively induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis[1]
Dosage: 30, 100, 300, 600 mg/kg
Administration: i.p., from day 8 to 14 after immunization
Result: Suppressed clinical symptoms.
Reduced the number of infiltrating cells in the central nervous system (CNS).
Decreased the percentages of CD4+ and CD25+ positive cells in the CNS.
Reduced the total number of infiltrating cells in the spinal cord and the number of splenocytes on day 14.
Downregulated the mRNA expression of TNF-α and IFN-γ in the spinal cord on day 14 and 17.
Upregulated the mRNA expression of IL-10 in the spleen on day 17.
Doses of 30 and 100 mg/kg had no significant effect on the clinical course; 600 mg/kg could delay the onset and reduce severity, but without statistical significance.
Administration from day 0 to 7 after immunization or from 3 days before immunization to day 5 after immunization had no significant effect on the clinical course.
Animal Model: Male Lewis rats (3-4 months old) were immunized with 75 mg of myelin basic protein peptide in complete Freund’s adjuvant; 9-10 days later, regional lymph node cells were isolated, cultured with 7.5 mg/mL of the peptide, activated lymphoblasts were separated, and each rat was intraperitoneally injected with 15 × 106 lymphoblasts to establish adoptively transferred experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis model[1]
Dosage: 300 mg/kg
Administration: i.p. at day 0 to 7 after cell transfer
Result: Suppressed clinical symptoms.
Animal Model: Male BALB/c mice[4]
Dosage: 3, 30, 300 mg/kg
Administration: p.o. once daily for 4 days
Result: Suppressd IgA production (not IgM and IgG) by LPS-stimulated B cells, with the effect abrogated by CD4⁺ cell depletion.
Did not affect serum IgA levels, gut IgA secretion in LPS-unstimulated mice, or PP lymphocyte subsets (Thy-1+, CD4+/CD8+ percentages).
Had no impact on B-cell proliferative responses to LPS or anti-μ-chain antibody plus rIL-4.

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 (12.94 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (12.94 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, 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.
