Retro-2 cycl inhibits cellular infection by interfering with the formation of intracellular vacuoles in viruses, bacteria, or parasites[2].
Retro-2 cycl can effectively inhibit EV71 virus infection at a concentration of 12.56 μM in the cytopathic effect inhibition experiment, but when its concentration exceeds 500 μM, it shows lower cytotoxicity[3].
Retro-2 cycl (7.81-500 μM, 48h) demonstrates a dose-dependent effect on EV71-induced cytopathic effect in 293S cells, with a maximum suppression rate of 61.32±6.55%, an EC50 value of 12.56 μM, and antiviral activity represents by a selective index (SI) value greater than 39.81[3].

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 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.49 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.
