Description

Didanosine (2',3'-Dideoxyinosine; ddI) is a a potent and orally active dideoxynucleoside analogue, and also is a potent nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor. Didanosine shows antiretroviral activity for HIV[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Didanosine is converted by cellular enzymes to the active antiviral metabolite dideoxyadenosine triphosphate (dd-ATP) and the intracellular half life of dd-ATP varies from 8-24 hours[1].
Didanosine shows antiretroviral activity with IC50 value of 0.24-0.6 mg/L for HIV infection[3].
Didanosine (5, 10, 50, 100 ug/ml; 24, 48 h) shows no significant inhibition of cell proliferation in IEC-6 cells[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Proliferation Assay[2]

Cell Line: IEC-6 cells
Concentration: 5, 10, 50, 100 ug/ml

Apoptosis Analysis[2]

Cell Line: IEC-6 cells
Concentration: 100 ug/ml

Result: Induced apoptosis with the apoptosis rates of 4.7% to 7.4%.
In Vivo

Didanosine (100, 150 mg/kg; p.o.; daily for 7 days) decreases the length of duodenal and in jejunal villus in mouse[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: 30-40 g, male swiss mice[2]
Dosage: 100, 150 mg/kg
Administration: P.o.; daily for 7 days
Result: Caused significant reductions in duodenal and in jejunal villus length and significantly decreased ileal crypt depth.

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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.80 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.80 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
