DUSP6[1]
BCI (100 ng/mL; 24 h) downregulats the expression of DUSP6 in RAW264.7 macrophage cells[2].
BCI (0-1 nM; 24 h) inhibits the expression of IL-1β and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) activated macrophages[2].
BCI (0-4 nM; 24 h) decreases ROS production and activates the Nrf2 Pathway in LPS-activated macrophages[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

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: ≥ 1.56 mg/mL (4.41 mM); Clear solution
