Description

Sofalcone, a gastric antiulcer agent, is known to induce the expression of Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in gastric epithelium.

IC50 & Target

Heme oxygenase-1[1]

In Vitro

Sofalcone (50 μmol/L) significantly increases HO-1 mRNA expression compare with the control group in both trophoblasts and HUVECs (P<0.05 for both). Western blot analysis demonstrates that Sofalcone potently increases HO-1 protein expression in primary HUVECs treated for 24 hours. Western blot analysis also reveals a significant increase in the amount of Nrf2 in the nuclear fraction of HUVECs with Sofalcone treatment (50 μmol/L) for 6 hours. In primary HUVECs, expression of NQO1, TXN, and GCLC are increased in a dose dependently manner with Sofalcone treatment for 24 hours. Sofalcone significantly decreases the sFlt-1 concentrations in the culture media and dose dependently decreases the amount of THP-1 monocyte adherence to HUVECs[1].

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:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (6.10 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (27.5 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Cell Assay
[1]

Primary HUVECs are seeded at 60 000 cells per well and incubated at 37°C for 14 to 16 hours to allow tube formation. Cells are then cultured in the presence of either TNF-α (10 ng/mL) alone, with both TNF-α (10 ng/mL) and Sofalcone 50 μM, or control media for 8 to 12 hours. Tube formation is assessed, and images are captured using microscope at ×4 magnification[1].

Help & FAQs
  • 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.
