    In Vitro

    Deferoxamine mesylate (1 mM; 16 h or 4 weeks) improves HIF-1α function under hypoxic and hyperglycemic conditions and decreases ROS in MEFs cells[1].
    Deferoxamine mesylate (100 μM; 24 h) increases InsR expression and activity and also induces an increase in p-Akt/total Akt/PKB levels[2].
    Deferoxamine mesylate (5, 10, 25, 50, 100 μM; 7 or 9 days) inhibits the proliferation of tumor-associated MSCs and bone marrow MSCs[3].
    Deferoxamine mesylate (5, 10, 25, 50, 100 μM; 7 days) induces apoptosis of MSCs[3].
    Deferoxamine mesylate (10 μM ; 3 days) influencs the expression of adhesion proteins on MSCs[3].
    Deferoxamine mesylate (100 μM; 24 h) induces autophagy mediated by the level of HIF-1α in SH-SY5Y cells[4].

    Cell Line: MEFs cells
    Concentration: 1 mM
    Incubation Time: 16 h (hypoxia condition); 4 weeks (hyperglycemic conditions)

    Notably increased normoxic HIF transactivation in MEFs under both high glucose and normal glucose conditions.

    Western Blot Analysis[2]

    Cell Line: HepG2 cells
    Concentration: 100 µM

    Cell Autophagy Assay[4]

    Cell Line: SH-SY5Y cells
    Concentration: 100 µM
    Incubation Time: 24 h
    Result: Increased the ratio of LC3-II/I, an indicator of autophagy, which effects were blocked when autophagy-related gene Beclin 1 was suppressed by Beclin 1 siRNA transfection.
    Caused a time and dose-dependent increase of HIF-1a, accompanied by the induction of autophagy.
    In Vivo

    Deferoxamine mesylate (6.57 μg/per; drip-on; once daily for 21 days) enhances wound healing and increases neovascularization in aged or diabetic mice[1].
    Deferoxamine mesylate (200 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 2 weeks) results in HIF-1α stabilization and increases glucose uptake, hepatic InsR expression, and signaling in vivo[2].

    Animal Model: Aged (21-month-old) and diabetic (12-week-old) C57BL/6J mice (excisional wound model)[1].
    Dosage: 6.57 µg/per (10 uL of 1 mM)
    Administration: Drip-on; once daily for 21 days.
    Result: Displayed significantly accelerated healing and increased neovascularization in both aged and diabetic mice model.
    Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (180-200 g)[2].
    Dosage: 200 mg/kg
    Administration: Intraperitoneal injection; daily for 2 weeks.

    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.
