Biological Activity
Description
In Vivo
3,5,6-Trichloro-2-pyridinol (5-150 mg/kg, daily for 28 days) induces hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity, as well as metabolic disturbances[5].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Animal Model:male mice[5]
-
Dosage:5, 50, 150 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral gavage (p.o.), daily for 28 days
-
Result:The final body weights of treated groups were significantly lower than control, and the relative organ weights of the liver and kidney were significantly higher than that of control.
A total of 39 serum metabolites were significantly changed in the treated groups, and these metabolites are related to hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity.
Metabolic disturbances were also observed.
-
Animal Model:adult male C57BL/6 mice[4]
-
Dosage:50, 150 mg/kg
-
Administration:21 days
-
Result:Showed a dose-dependent elevation of hearing threshold.
Outer hair cells and spiral neuron cells were lost in a dose-dependent manner.
Type I and V of spiral ligament were severely shrunk and stria vascularis were thinned.
ROS levels in the cochlea were significantly increased whereas the activities of anti-oxidation enzymes were decreased.
The expression level of Na+/K+ ATPase was decreased, resulting in cochlear potential disruption.
Levels of inflammatory factors (TNF-α and IL-1β), γ-H2AX, and pro-apoptotic-related factors (Bax and cleaved-Caspase 3) were elevated, respectively.

Solvent & Solubility
In Vitro:
DMSO : 32.5 mg/mL (163.79 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 3.25 mg/mL (16.38 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 3.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (32.5 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.
