Description

Ethidine (Diludine, Diethone) is used to produce 2,6-dimethyl-pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester. It is an antioxidant. Diethone--a new pharmaceutical to prevent and treat radiogenic skin injuries. Diethone is a synthetic antioxidant of the dihydropyridine-line. In experiment on animals the preparation was used in form of an ointment.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Curator's Comment: LD50 mg/kg: >2000 (>7.9 mmol/kg) (32,000 mg/kg, mice, ip) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28473879
The possibility of the mutagenic action of ethidine (in doses of 2500 and 1000 mg/kg of the body mass) was verified on mongrel albino mice through investigation of chromosomal aberration in the bone marrow cells. The embryotoxicity was studied on mongrel albino rats with introduction of the compound (in doses of 100 and 500 mg/kg to pregnant female rats at the time of implantation or organogenesis.
Route of Administration: Unknown
In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: Ethidine inhibited specific ligand-receptor (glucocorticoid receptor from the rat liver cytosol) binding by 70-80% at at concentration of 10(-4) M with IC(50) value of 45.32 ± 2.27 uM. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16963802
L929 or HMEC cells were incubated with 0-100 ug/mL of Ethidine (Diludine).
