Description

Sulindac (MK-231) is an orally active nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent. Sulindac also is an immunomodulatory agent. Sulindac can be used for the research of arthritis of the spine, gouty arthritis and kinds of cancer including colorectal cancer (CRC) and lung cancer[1][2].

In Vitro

Sulindac (MK-231) (500 μM, 48 h) is effective in preventing TGF-β1-induced EMT, as indicated by upregulation of the epithelial marker, E-cadherin, and downregulation of mesenchymal markers and transcription factors[1].
Sulindac (500 μM, 48 h) can inhibit TGF-β1-enhanced migration and invasion of A549 cells[1].
Sulindac (500 μM, 48 h) enhances the reversal of TGF-β1-induced EMT by sulindac and SIRT1 upregulation promoted TGF-β1-induced EMT[1].

In Vivo

Sulindac (MK-231) (15 mg/kg, p.o., bid (sulindac alone); 7.5 mg/kg p.o., bid (sulindac combination with PD-L1)) shows a significant reduction in tumor volume and increases infiltration of CD8+ T lymphocytes in the tumor tissues when treated with combination therapy[2].
Sulindac (15 mg/kg, p.o., bid (sulindac alone); 7.5 mg/kg p.o., bid (sulindac combination with PD-L1)) can downregulate PD-L1 by blocking NF-κB signaling, which in turn led to a decrease in exosomal P[2].
Sulindac (15 mg/kg, p.o., bid (sulindac alone); 7.5 mg/kg p.o., bid (sulindac combination with PD-L1)) leads to increased availability of PD-L1 Ab by downregulating PD-L1 in combination therapy[2].
Sulindac (15 mg/kg, p.o., bid (sulindac alone); 7.5 mg/kg p.o., bid (sulindac combination with PD-L1)) has not a systemic inhibitory effect on prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in low-dose[2].

Animal Model: CT26 syngeneic mouse tumor model[2]
Dosage: 15 mg/kg; 7.5 mg/kg

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.01 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.01 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
