DIDS sodium salt
Based on 22 publication(s) in Google Scholar
DIDS sodium salt (MDL101114ZA) is a dual inhibitor of ABCA1 and VDAC1. DIDS also inhibits RAD51, inhibiting RAD51-mediated homologous pairing and strand exchange reactions. DIDS inhibits anion exchange and binding to red blood cell membranes, inhibits the activation of caspase-3 and -9, and can be used in cancer research.

Protocol
Cells (5×105 cells/mL) are seeded in the 35-mm Petri dishes and cultured for 72 h at 37°C. Cells are pre-incubated with ALA, and then DIDS of diverse concentrations (0-200 μM) is added before exposed to ultrasound. Cell apoptosis is detected. Briefly, seeded cells (5×105 cells/mL) are pre-treated with test compounds at the indicated concentrations for 1 h (DIDS and NAC), 1.5 h (BAPTA) or with siRNA and exposed to ultrasound. Six hours after ALA-SDT treatment, cells are collected[2].
