Biological Activity

ln Vitro	In comparatively few pulses, diltiazem malate (200 µM) generates application-dependent blocking [1]. By speeding up inactivation during the action potential, diltiazem malate lowers Ca2+ inflow, and an increase in the number of channels in the sustained closed state is the cause of the use-dependent blockage [1].
ln Vivo	In an approach that is independent of blood pressure, diltiazem malate (100 mg/kg); oral; once daily for 4 weeks) inhibits the formation of aortic aneurysms [3]. In ApoE-/- mice, ATII-induced vascular inflammation and macrophagy are lessened by diltiazem malate (100 mg/kg; oral; daily for 6 days) in combination with 1.44 mg/kg (oral; daily for 6 days)[3]. Rats treated intravenously with diltiazem malate (2 mg/kg) had a T1/2 of 61.2 minutes and a CLel of 3.2 mL/minute [4].

Additional Infomation	Diltiazem Malate is a malate salt of diltazem, a benzothiazepine calcium channel blocking agent. Diltiazem inhibits the transmembrane influx of extracellular calcium ions into select myocardial and vascular smooth muscle cells, causing dilatation of coronary and systemic arteries and decreasing myocardial contractility. Because of its vasodilatory activity, this agent has been shown to improve the microcirculation in some tumors, thereby potentially improving the delivery of antineoplastic agents to tumor cells. A benzothiazepine derivative with vasodilating action due to its antagonism of the actions of CALCIUM ion on membrane functions.

Solubility Data

Solubility (In Vitro)

May dissolve in DMSO (in most cases), if not, try other solvents such as H2O, Ethanol, or DMF with a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples

Solubility (In Vivo)

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples. Injection Formulations (e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80： Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
