Functions

A selective, cell-permeable non-peptide calpain inhibitor (Ki  for μ- and m-calpains = 0.21 and 0.37 μM respectively). Acts at the calcium binding site of calpain rather than the substrate-binding site. Inhibits calpain activity in two intact cell systems. Attenuates hypoxic/hypoglycemic injury to cerebrocortical neurons in culture and excitotoxic injury to Purkinje cells in cerebellar slices.  Displays cytoprotective effects in oxidant- and calcium ionophore-induced cell death. Some protective effects may be due to inhibition of MMP activity.

Application Procedures

First dissolved in DMSO (up to 30 mg/ml) or in Ethanol (up to 15 mg/ml), then diluted to aqueous buffer. Solutions in DMSO or ethanol may be stored at -20° for up to 3 months.
