| Description | Demeclocycline is an orally active tetracycline antibiotic. Demeclocycline impairs protein synthesis by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit to inhibit binding of aminoacyl tRNA. Demeclocycline shows anti-bacterial activitise to a wide variety of bacterial infections[1][2]. |

| In Vitro | Demeclocycline (0-100 μM; 24 h) treatment reduces AQP2 abundance in mpkCCD cells[3]. Demeclocycline (10 μM; 24 h) treatment promotes the activity of monocytes and macrophages[4]. Demeclocycline (1-10 μM; 72 h) treatment directly affects the growth of brain tumorinitiating cells[4]. Western Blot Analysis[3] Cell Line: MpkCCD cells Concentration: 0-100 μM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Decreased AQP2 abundance in mpkCCD cells, with significant effects at 50 μM. Cell Viability Assay[4] Cell Line: mouse bone marrow derived macrophages and monocytes Concentration: 10 μM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Enhanced TNF-α production and modulated monocyte functions. Cell Viability Assay[4] Cell Line: brain tumorinitiating cells Concentration: 1, 5, and 10 μM Incubation Time: 72 hours Result: Inhibited cells growth in two ways: using monocytes as an intermediary, and directly by affecting the proliferation and sphere-forming capacity of brain tumorinitiating cells. |

| In Vivo | Demeclocycline (Intraperitoneal injection; 40 mg/kg; once daily; 48 h) treatment results in a significant reduction of hyponatremia and a significant correction of the hypoosmolality, and is not nephrotoxic[3]. Animal Model: Male Wistar rats induced with hyponatremia[3] Dosage: 40 mg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; 40 mg/kg; once daily; 48 hours Result: Increased urine volume, decreased urine osmolality, and caused a significantly increased fractional excretion of water. Animal Model: Male Wistar rats induced with hyponatremia[3] Dosage: 40 mg/kg Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; 40 mg/kg; once daily; 48 hours Result: Indicated the effect in the renal inner medulla for AQP2 and AC5/6 specifically, and not secondary toxicity effect. |
