    DNA synthesis[1]

    In Vitro

    Gemcitabine (purchased from MedChem Express, 0.003-1 μM; 3 days) kills both mouse and human senescent cells effectively and potently[4].
    Gemcitabine inhibits the growth of BxPC-3, Mia Paca-2, PANC-1, PL-45 and AsPC-1 cells with IC50s of 37.6, 42.9, 92.7, 89.3 and 131.4 nM, respectively[1].

    Cell Viability Assay[4]

    Cell Line: Non-senescent and replication-induced senescent new born dermal fibroblasts (NBFs)
    Concentration: 0.003, 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1 μM
    Incubation Time: 3 days
    Result: Killed replication-induced senescent NBFs for 3 days with 11.0% cell viability.
    In Vivo

    Gemcitabine can be administered via endotracheal spray in rats without marked toxicity with a maximum tolerated dose of 4 mg/kg once a week for 9 weeks. The toxicity of Gemcitabine is lower via lung than oral administration at dosages of 2, 4, and 6 mg/kg[2].
    Treatment of the LSL-KrasG12D/+; LSL-Trp53R172H; Pdx-1-Cre mice with either Gemcitabine (50 mg/kg, i.p.) or the combination DMAPT/Gemcitabine significantly increases the median survival time by more than 30 days compared to the placebo group (254.5 or 255 days vs. 217.5 days, respectively)[3].

    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:  5% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    50% Saline

      Solubility: ≥ 2.62 mg/mL (9.95 mM); Clear solution

    • Protocol 2

      Add each solvent one by one:  5% DMSO    95% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      Solubility: ≥ 2.62 mg/mL (9.95 mM); Clear solution

    For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
    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.

    • 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.
