In Vitro

Psoralen (10-500 μM; 24-48 hours) inhibits cell viability in a concentration- and time-dependent manner in L02 and?HepG2 cells. In L02 cells, Psoralen at 400 μM does not significantly change extracellular LDH levels, and 400 μM or 450 μM psoralen inhibits 50–60% of cell viability^[1].
Psoralen (150-450 μM; 24 hours) induces significant S-phase arrest in L02 cells in time- and dose-dependent manners, but it does not exhibits significant change in the cycle distribution of HepG2 cells^[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Concentration:

150 μM; 300 μM; 450 μM
Incubation Time:

In Vivo

Psoralen (oral gavage; 17.5 mg/kg; 6 weeks) reduces the number of metastatic lesions and the rate of bone metastasis by 20% compared to vehicle-treated mice. It also reduces tumor infiltration and decreases the percentage of tumor cells in metastatic lesions by ~40% compared to vehicle in mice^[2].

Stock Solution Working Solution

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 (13.43 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.

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.

Protocol 3

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil

Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (13.43 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
