Biological Activity
p53[1]
The DNA-binding activity is increased in a Amifostine thiol dihydrochloride (Amifostine thiol) concentration-dependent manner. Cells treated with 1 mM Amifostine thiol dihydrochloride for 24 h reveal that all of the p53-induced genes analyzed are transactivated following Amifostine thiol dihydrochloride treatment, in a p53-dependent manner. Significantly, treatment with Amifostine thiol dihydrochloride leads to a 3-fold increase in luciferase expression driven by AP-1, and a 5-fold increase when this reporter gene is driven by NF-κB, when these values are normalized to the level of the cotransfected β-galactosidase gene[2].

H2O : ≥ 100 mg/mL (482.72 mM)
DMSO : 17.5 mg/mL (84.48 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 60°C; 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, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (sealed storage, away from moisture). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.

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: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (8.06 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (16.7 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (8.06 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.67 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (16.7 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.

Protocol
For Western analysis, cells are treated with 1 mM WR-1065 dihydrochloride (WR-1065) for 24 h, and subconfluent cultures of cells are harvested and lysed in RIPA buffer supplemented with protease inhibitors. Protein concentrations are determined by a detergent-compatible assay. Western blots are blocked and incubated in antibody in PBS/0.2% Tween 20/5% nonfat dry milk. Blots are incubated with 1 μg/mL antibody for 1 h at room temperature, followed by washing in PBS/0.2% Tween 20 and incubation in peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibody and chemiluminescence detection[2].

To test the effects of paclitaxel in the presence or absence of WR-1065 dihydrochloride (WR-1065) on cell growth, cells are seeded in 96-well tissue culture dishes at 20% confluence and allowed to attach and recover for at least 24 h. Varying combinations of paclitaxel alone or in combination with a 60 min pretreatment with 1 mM WR-1065 dihydrochloride are then added to each well, and the plates are incubated for an additional 48 h or 72 h. The number of surviving cells is determined by staining. The percentage of cells killed by paclitaxel and/or WR-1065 dihydrochloride is calculated as the percentage decrease in sulforhodamine B binding compare with control cells[2].

Seventy two rats are divided randomly into 9 equal groups: 1) Control group receives no injection and is left untreated for the entire period of the experiment as intact animals; 2) Sham operated group is subjected only to surgical procedure; 3) Vehicle (saline)-treated group receives 2 μL saline (intra-SNc); 4) Lesioned group receives 6-hydroxydopamine; 5) Vehicle+6OHDA group receives saline as a vehicle 3 days once daily (2 μL/rat) before 6-OHDA injection; 6 to 8) Rats in these groups are pretreated with intra-SNc injection of WR-1065 dihydrochloride (WR-1065) (20, 40 and 80 μg/2 μL/rat) 3 days before 6-OHDA injection; 9) Non-lesioned animals receive intra-SNc injection of WR-1065 dihydrochloride (80 μg/2 μL/rat) for three days[3].
