Physical and Chemical Properties | Bioactive Tyloxapol (Triton WR1339) is a non-ionic liquid polymer of alkyl aryl polyether alcohols, which is used as a surfactant during liquefaction and removes mucopurulent and bronchial and pulmonary secretions. It also inhibits plasma lipolytic activity, which breaks down triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins. |

in vitro studies
Tyloxapol is considered a safe stabilizer. In some studies, Tyloxapol has been reported to have toxic effects in epithelial cells and red blood cells, inducing apoptosis in RAW264.7 mouse phages and NIH/3T3 cells, and inducing lysis in human Jurkat T lymphocytes. However, these toxic effects do not reflect the in vivo effects of Tyloxapol, and they are rarely used alone in clinical practice.
In vivo studies
In rats, a single injection of 400 mg/kg tyloxapol by intravenous injection will produce three different stages in plasma lipids: relative to the basal level, there will be a rapid linear increase, then a relatively gentle linear increase, and finally a slow decrease. The treatment of Tyloxapol enhanced the pulmonary absorption of insulin and the absorption of inhaled insulin in a diabetic rat model. In diabetic rat models, the drug may significantly enhance the hypoglycemic effect of insulin perfused through the trachea, but does not change LDH activity.
