Folic acid [59-30-3]

Referência HY-16637-500mg

Tamanho : 500mg

Marca : MedChemExpress


Description

Folic acid (Vitamin B9) is a orally active essential nutrient from the B complex group of vitamins. Folic acid shows antidepressant-like effect. Folic acid sodium reduces the risk of neonatal neural tube defects. Folic acid can be used to the research of megaloblastic and macrocytic anemias due to folic deficiency[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Folic acid plays a critical role in the prevention of chromosome breakage and hypomethylation of DNA[1].

In Vivo

Note:
Please do not refer to only one article to determine the experimental conditions. It is recommended to determine the optimal experimental conditions (animal strain, age, dosage, frequency and cycle, detection time and indicators, etc.) through preliminary experiments before the formal experiment.

Folic acid can be used to induce acute kidney injury models. In rats, oral administration results in an AUC of 1.4 μg h/mL, with an oral bioavailability of 35%[5].

Induction of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI)[6]
Background
Folic acid metabolism requires higher levels of NADPH to reduce folate to THF decreasing the antioxidant defense. The redox imbalance generated by folic acid metabolism is one of the main mechanisms involved in renal damage.
Specific Modeling Methods
Rat: Wistar • male
Administration: 300mg/ml • i.p. • single dose
Note
(1) Intraperitoneal injection 300 mg/kg folic acid (dissolved in 300 mM NaHCO ) in male Wistar rats with an initial body weight between 230 to 250 g.
(2) Plasma was collected and analyzed at days 2, 4, 7, 14 and 28 after folic acid administration.
Modeling Indicators
Metabolic changes : Assessment of renal injury by blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and plasma creatinine.
Individual phenotypic change: The ratio of kidney weight to total rat weight was detected.
Correlated Product(s): Acetylcysteine (HY-B0215)

Dosage: 10, 50, 100 mg/kg
Administration: Oral administration
Result: Decreased the immobility time in the forced swimming test (FST) (F324=11.21) and produced a significant effect in the immobility time in the tail suspension test (TST) (F3,20=5.71).
Animal Model: 30-40 g swiss mice[2]
Dosage: 1-10 nmol/site
Administration: Intracerebroventrical injection

Dosage: 1, 5 mg/kg (180 g/kg protein with 1 mg/kg folic acid or 90 g/kg casein with 1, 5 mg/kg folic acid)
Administration: Oral administration
Result: Prevented epigenetic modification of hepatic gene expression in the offspring.

* Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 1 year; -20°C, 6 months. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 1 year. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 6 months.

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:  300 mM Sodium bicarbonate in Water

    Solubility: 50 mg/mL (113.28 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic

  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.71 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
