Product Description

For researcher use only

Key Scientific Aspects:

  • Chemical Structure & Properties: It is a cationic dye with a planar structure that readily passes through biological membranes, including the blood-brain barrier, and accumulates in mitochondrial, lysosomal, and nuclear compartments. It is soluble in both water and organic solvents.
  • Redox Activity: Methylene blue possesses a low redox potential, allowing it to easily cycle between its oxidized (blue) and reduced (colorless, leucomethylene blue) forms. This allows it to bypass mitochondrial complex I-III inhibition, improving electron transport, increasing ATP production, and reducing superoxide production.
  • Medical Mechanism of Action: In methemoglobinemia, it acts as a cofactor for methemoglobin reductase, converting ferric iron back to ferrous iron, which restores the oxygen-carrying capacity of hemoglobin.
  • Biological/Diagnostic Use: Due to its ability to stain living tissue, it is used in surgical procedures for lymphatic mapping and sentinel node identification.
  • History: Synthesized in 1876 as a textile dye, it was one of the first synthetic drugs used in medicine.
