    Flavopiridol purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Sci Rep. 2015 Dec 1;5:17675.  [Abstract]

    Flavopiridol (FP) significantly decreases renilla luciferase mRNA levels time-dependently. The bar graphs (upper panel) represent renilla luciferase mRNA levels in pRL-SV40-transfected A549 cells treated with FP normalized to that in FP free cells. The bottom panel indicates renilla luciferase mRNA levels determined by RT-PCR using 1 μg of total RNA as template.

    In Vitro

    Flavopiridol (2 μM) robustly induces a distinct pattern of ER stress in CLL cells that contributes to cell death through IRE1-mediated activation of ASK1 and possibly downstream caspases[1]. Flavopiridol results in potent upregulation of a number of PRGs in treatments lasting 4-24 h. Flavopiridol has and immediate and long-term effect on the expression of several PRGs. In serum starved cells re-stimulated with serum, flavopiridol also inhibits the expression of these genes, but subsequently, JUNB, GADD45B and EGR1 are upregulated in the presence of flavopiridol[2].
    Flavopiridol (Alvocidib) also inhibits cyclin E1 and induces apoptosis[4].

    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 (6.22 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 (6.22 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.

    Cell Assay
    [1]

    The cells treated with flavopiridol are washed after 4 hours with PBS and resuspended in regular growth medium (RPMI 1640) supplemented with 10% human serum and antibiotics for the remainder of the incubation time. In the case of flavopiridol/NSC-187208 samples, NSC-187208 is re-added in the fresh media after flavopiridol is washed at 4 hours. For all the other conditions, cells are incubated with the respective drugs for 24 hours continuously.

    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.
