General tips | For obtaining a higher solubility , please warm the tube at 37 ℃ and shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while.Stock solution can be stored below -20℃ for several months. We recommend that you prepare and use the solution on the same day. However, if the test schedule requires, the stock solutions can be prepared in advance, and the stock solution must be sealed and stored below -20℃. In general, the stock solution can be kept for several months. Before use, we recommend that you leave the vial at room temperature for at least an hour before opening it. |

Description | Phenformin (hydrochloride) is a hydrochloride salt of phenformin that is an anti-diabetic drug from the biguanide class, can activate AMPK activity.In Vitro:Phenformin stimulates the phosphorylation and activation of AMPKalpha1 and AMPKalpha2 without altering LKB1 activity[1]. Phenformin increases AMPK activity and phosphorylation in the isolated heart, the increase in AMPK activity is always preceded by and correlated with increased cytosolic [AMP][2]. Phenformin is a 50-fold more potent inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I than metformin. Phenformin robustly induces apoptosis in LKB1 deficient NSCLC cell lines. Phenformin at 2 mM similarly induces AMPK signaling as shown by increased P-AMPK and P-Raptor levels. Phenformin induces higher levels of cellular stress, triggering induction of P-Ser51 eIF2α and its downstream target CHOP, and markers of apoptosis at later times. Phenformin induces a significant increase in survival and therapeutic response in KLluc mice following long-term treatment[3]. Phenformin and AICAR increases AMPK activity in H441 cells in a dose-dependent fashion, stimulating the kinase maximally at 5-10 mm and 2 mm, respectively. Phenformin significantly decreases basal ion transport (measured as short circuit current) across H441 monolayers by approximately 50% compared with that of controls. Phenformin and AICAR significantly reduce amiloride-sensitive transepithelial Na+ transport compared with controls. Phenformin and AICAR suppress amiloride-sensitive Na+ transport across H441 cells via a pathway that includes activation of AMPK and inhibition of both apical Na+ entry through ENaC and basolateral Na+ extrusion via the Na+,K+-ATPase[4]. Phenformin-treated rats reveals a tendency towards a decrease in blood insulin level (radioimmunoassay)[5].In Vivo:Phenformin increases levels of P-eIF2α and its target BiP/Grp78 in normal lung as well as in lung tumors of mice[3].

Phenformin HCl is a hydrochloride salt of the biguanidine drug phenformin.
Phenformin is the biguanide class that displays anti-diabetic activity.
In 5 patients with diabetes mellitus, phenformin reduced the blood glucose values and glycosuria. In 4 of 5 patients, cholesterol and total lipid levels were dropped. Also, Phenformin had no impact on glucose, nor the insulin levels after intravenous glucose loading.

The effect of phenformin-HCl on patients with diabetes mellitus, studied under strict balance conditions.[Pubmed:1181670]
Diabetologia. 1975 Oct;11(5):475-82.
Under strict balance conditions we studied the effect of phenformin in 5 patients with diabetes mellitus. In all cases phenformin lowered the blood glucose values, and all patients showed a reduction of glycosuria. Contrary to other reports body weight increased during phenformin treatment. This was accompanied by positive nitrogen, phosphorus and calcium balances. The weight gain can be explained by the positive caloric balance, mainly caused by the diminished glycosuria. No change in B.M.R. or R.Q. was seen. During phenformin treatment there was a drop in cholesterol and total lipid levels in 4 patients. No conclusions could be drawn about the effect of phenformin on triglycerides, phospholipids and lipoprotein spectra. Phenformin treatment did not affect the disappearance of glucose, nor the insulin levels after intravenous glucose loading. During oral glucose loading phenformin caused a significant fall in blood glucose levels, accompanied by an increased insulin response in one patient. In the other 4 patients phenformin had no effect on either parameter.
