Ataluren purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Biomedicines. 2023 Apr 28;11(5):1310. [Abstract]
The expression level of p53 was assessed using the p53 N-terminal antibody (DO-1) following treatment with either DMSO or Ataluren (PTC124) in four different p53 nonsense mutation clones. It was observed that Ataluren (PTC124) (50 μM; 48 h) was able to induce re-expression of p53 as red color in H1299-R306X and H1299-R342X clones but not in H1299-W91X and H1299-S94X clones. Hoechst 33342 was used to label the nucleus as blue color.

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : ≥ 52 mg/mL (182.94 mM; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
* "≥" means soluble, but saturation unknown.
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.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (8.80 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.
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.

Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
Duplicate samples of HEK293 cells harbouring LUC-190 (UGA) are incubated in the presence of 5 μM Ataluren (PTC124) (treated) or 1% DMSO (untreated) for 20 h. The cells are collected, washed twice in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), resuspended in sample buffer (Bio-Rad) and shipped on dry ice to Kendrick Laboratories for two-dimensional electrophoretic analysis Isoelectric focusing (pH 3.5-10) is carried out in glass tubes for 20,000 V-hours. One μg of a tropomyosin internal standard is added to each sample. Second dimension SDS slab gel electrophoresis is carried out for approximately 6 h at 25 mA per gel. After electrophoresis, gels are transferred to PVDF paper. Computerized analysis of spot mobility used Phoretix software[2].

Mice[3]
Male mice are randomly assigned to either a treatment group or vehicle control group. Six to eight mice per group are treated with 10 or 100 mg/kg Ataluren (PTC124) dissolved in PBS containing DMSO (2% for 10 mg/kg and 20% for 100 mg/kg) and (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin (22%) via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections four times daily for 2 consecutive days. Six to eight control mice are treated with the vehicle of the drug: PBS containing DMSO (2% or 20%) and (2-hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin (22%). Immediately following the last injection on the second day, tissues are collected and stored at −80°C for further use.
