Biological Activity

Description Diazoxide is a well-known small molecule that activates KATP channels in the smooth muscle of blood vessels and pancreatic beta-cells by increasing membrane permeability to potassium ions.
Targets
KATP channels [2]
In vitro
In vitro Diazoxide inhibits microglial inflammatory activity. Diazoxide treatment partially inhibits the inflammatory pattern induced by LPS/IFN-γ in microglial cells, inducing a decrease in NO production that could be because of the decreased expression of iNOS detected. Diazoxide has no effect on microglial phagocytosis[1].
Cell Research Cell lines Mouse microglial cell line BV-2
Concentrations 100 μM
Incubation Time 30 min
Method The phagocytic ability of microglia is determined by the uptake of 2-μm red fluorescent microspheres by BV-2 cells. Cells are treated with diazoxide 100 μM and activated with LPS/IFN-γ and then incubated with microspheres at a concentration of 0.01% for 30 min in the dark at 37°C and 5% CO2. Cells are rinsed twice in PBS solution, pelleted at 1,000 g for 5 min and resuspended in 300 μL PBS. Cells are kept on ice and analyzed by flow cytometry.
In Vivo
In vivo Diazoxide is beneficial on the improvement in cognitive tasks, reduction of anxiety, decrease in the accumulation of amyloid-beta oligomers and hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins. Diazoxide may also exerts neuroprotective effects independently of K+ channel activation by decreasing neuronal excitability and activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors or by increasing currents trough α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors. Diazoxide-treated animals show a decrease in disease severity a few days after the first clinical signs are observed, corresponding to the acute inflammatory phase of the disease. Daily oral administration of diazoxide in EAE mice during the effector phase of the disease reduces the severity of the clinical signs without any apparent adverse effect. Diazoxide decreases demyelination and axonal loss, reduces tissue damage, inhibits microglial/macrophage and astrocytic activation and preserves neuron integrity. No effects are observed on the number of B and T lymphocytes infiltrating the spinal cord[1].

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.
