Hycanthone
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Hycanthone is an apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) inhibitor, DNA intercalator and Antischistosomal agent, with an IC50 of 80 nM against APE1. Hycanthone irreversibly inhibits thymidine incorporation into DNA in adult sensitive *Schistosoma mansoni*, while exerts weak inhibitory effects on uridine and leucine incorporation. Hycanthone reduces influenza virus-induced interferon production. Hycanthone exhibits mutagenic effects in various organisms, shows teratogenicity in mice and rabbits, and induces neoplastic liver lesions in partially hepatectomized mice. Hycanthone can be used in research related to schistosomiasis and cancer.

In Vitro
Hycanthone potently inhibits the endonuclease activity of APE1, with an IC50 of 80 nM[1].
Hycanthone (1.0-50.0 μg/mL; 24 h) reduces the viability of LLC-MK2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, with a cell survival rate of 43.1% at 50.0 μg/mL, 78.8% at 20.0 μg/mL, and only extremely weak effects at concentrations ≤10.0 μg/mL[3].
Hycanthone (0.1-10.0 μg/mL; 24 h) potently inhibits influenza virus-induced interferon production in LLC-MK2 cells in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner, reducing interferon yield by 73.5% at a concentration of 10.0 μg/mL[3].
Hycanthone (24 h) does not alter interferon-mediated antiviral cellular resistance in clone 1-5c-4 cells[3].
Hycanthone (10.0 μg/mL) ethanesulfonate prevents IA-4 N-oxide from blocking its inhibitory effect on influenza virus-induced interferon production, reducing interferon yield by 78.0%[3].

Solvent & Solubility
In Vitro:
DMSO : 12.5 mg/mL (35.07 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.

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.
