Benfotiamine

Synonyms: S-Benzoylthiamine O-monophosphate, Benzoylthiamine monophosphate

Benfotiamine (S-Benzoylthiamine O-monophosphate) is a synthetic S-acyl derivative of thiamine (vitamin B1) and has been investigated for the treatment and prevention of Diabetic Nephropathy and Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2. Benfotiamine suppresses oxidative stress-induced NF-κB activation and prevents the bacterial endotoxin-induced inflammation.

Benfotiamine improves the expression of endothelial cell markers in EPCs, restores eNOS levels, and recovers the ability of EPCs to participate in angiogenic processes. It is able to dampen glucose toxicity effects on endothelial progenitors[1]. Benfotiamine possesses antitumor activity against leukemia cells. In a panel of nine myeloid leukemia cell lines benfotiamine impairs the viability of HL-60, NB4, K562 and KG1 cells and also inhibits the growing of primary leukemic blasts. The antitumor activity of benfotiamine is not mediated by apoptosis, necrosis or autophagy, but rather occurs though paraptosis cell death induction. Benfotiamine inhibits the activity of constitutively active ERK1/2 and concomitantly increases the phosphorylation of JNK1/2 kinase in leukemic cells. In addition, benfotiamine induces the down regulation of the cell cycle regulator CDK3 which results in G1 cell cycle arrest in the sensitive leukemic cells[2].

In vivo

Benfotiamine might exert vascular and renal benefits by modulating mechanisms independent or downstream of ROS formation. Benfotiamine aids the post-ischaemic healing of diabetic animals via PKB/Akt-mediated potentiation of angiogenesis and inhibition of apoptosis[3].

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.
