    Roxadustat purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: J Cell Mol Med. 2019 Jan;23(1):349-356.  [Abstract]

    FG-4592 increases level of HIF-1α and regulates apoptosis-related proteins in AHH-1. The effects of FG-4592 on HIF1-α are detected using Western Blot. Level of HIF-1α is measured at different time points after the treatment of FG-4592 (A). Cell lysate is obtained at 6 h after irradiation and used to evaluate the regulation of FG-4592 on apoptosis-related molecules. Apoptosis promoting molecules (c-caspase3 and cyt-c) are downregulated and molecules that inhibit apoptosis are up-regulated by FG-4

    FG-4592 mitigates radiation-induced DNA injuries. AHH-1 cells pretreated with or without FG-4592 are exposed to 6 Gy irradiation and γ-H2AX assay is used to determine DNA damages at 0, 0.5, 2 h after irradiation.

    Roxadustat purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Science. 2016 Apr 1;352(6281):54-61.  [Abstract]

    FG-4592 causes normoxic stabilization of HIF1α and rewires energy metabolism. Immunoblot showing HIF1α ± RC inhibition with antimycin or oligomycin, ± FG-4592 under normoxia (21% O2) or hypoxia (1% O2). RC inhibition prevents HIF1α stabilization during hypoxia. FG-4592 administration overcomes this paradox and stabilizes HIF1α even during normoxia. Immunoblot is representative of independent experiments done in duplicate in HT-29 cells.

    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

    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.
