Description:
GW274150 is a novel arginine-competitive, NADPH-dependent iNOS inhibitor that has been identified from a series of acetamide amino acids that have a high selectivity for iNOS vs both eNOS (> 260-fold) and nNOS (> 219-fold) and high bioavailability (> 90%) after oral administration.Target: iNOSin vivo: GW274150 demonstrates a narrow neuroprotective therapeutic window against the toxic actions of 6-OHDA. GW274150 administration leads to a dose-dependent decrease in the number of iNOS-positive cells in the SNc of the 6-OHDA-lesioned animals. The iNOS inhibitor GW274150 fails to produce long-term neuroprotection after its withdrawal in the 6-OHDA-lesioned rat. [1]
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one
month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at
least 1 hour.
