Cell Line:normal human keratinocytes
-
Concentration:10-10, 10-9, 10-8, 10-7, 10-6 M
-
Incubation Time:one week
-
Result:Significantly inhibited the growth of human keratinocytes at concentrations higher than 10-8 M.
The growth of keratinocytes was 65% inhibited by 10-8 M and 90% inhibited by 10-7 M
-
Cell Line:T98G cells
-
Concentration:0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 μM
-
Incubation Time:6 days
-
Result:Treatment for 6 days resulted in a significant, dose-dependent inhibitory effect on cell viability/growth.
Treatment of cells for less than 6 days did not influence cell viability/growth.
-
Cell Line:T98G cells
-
Concentration:10 μM
-
Incubation Time:41 h (pre-treated for 24 h, then cells were scraped and monitore for 17 h)
-
Result:Reduced the migration rate.
After 17 hr, the wound closure of control cells was about 60%, while treated cells had a wound closure of about 35-45%.

Animal Model:Female SKH1 (hr/hr) hairless mice (7-8 weeks old, Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (HY-18739) (12-Otetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA)) was topically applied to 6 cm2 area of the dorsal skin to induce cutaneous inflammation)[5]
-
Dosage:0.2, 2, 20 μg/g
-
Administration:Applied to the cutaneous inflammation area
-
Result:Significantly inhibited TPA-induced cutaneous inflammation, histopathologically.
The effect of 20 μg/g on cutaneous inflammation was much stronger than that of 2 μg/g.
20 μg/g also significantly inhibited TPA-induced myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity.
The effect on epidermal proliferation was significant at the doses of 2 μg/g and 20 μg/g, and that on epidermal differentiation was significant at the doses of 0.2 μg/g or more.

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: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (6.60 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (27.5 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.
