(±)-Blebbistatin is a racemic mixture containing two configurations, (+)-Blebbistatinb and (-)-Blebbistatin (Cat. No. GC13430). (±)-Blebbistatin can effectively inhibit the activity of non-muscle myosin II ATPase and the expression of various striated muscle myosins and non-muscle myosins in vertebrates[1, 2]. (±)-Blebbistatin is a commonly used excitation-contraction uncoupling agent in cardiovascular physiology[3]. (±)-Blebbistatin is a potential photodynamic drug that can kill cancer cells. Exposure to UV light with a wavelength below 488nm can also lead to rapid inhibition of (±)-Blebbistatin[4].
In vitro, (±)-Blebbistatin (0.1, 0.5, 2, 10μM) treated rat ventricular myocytes for 10min prevented cell shortening in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of 0.43μM, but did not affect intracellular calcium transients ([Ca2+]i)[5].
In vivo, (±)-Blebbistatin (125nM/kg) treated rats with detrusor overactivity (DO) by intravesical instillation significantly reduced the detrusor overactivity index, non-micturition contraction amplitude, and non-micturition contraction frequency, and improved urine storage without impairing urination function[6]. (±)-Blebbistatin (125nM/kg) treated DO rats by intra-arterial injection attenuated 13-cis-RA-induced changes in cystometric parameters and central and peripheral neurotrophic factor levels, and also had antidepressant-like effects[7].
