In Vitro

Bexarotene selectively binds and activates RXR subtypes with K_d=14±2 nM, 21±4 nM, and 29±7 nM for RXRα, RXRβ, and RXRγ subtypes^[1].
Bexarotene is effective in limiting the proliferation of leukemic (HL-60) cells. Bexarotene inhibits the proliferation of HL-60 cells by 37% at 1 μM^[1].
Bexarotene monotherapy of cells shows an antiproliferative effect at a high dose, and the IC₅₀s aere 40.62±0.45 μM (PC3) and 50.20±4.10 μM (DU145)^[2].
Bexarotene (20 and 40 μM) and Docetaxel (5 and 10 μM) exhibit a synergistic effect on the inhibition of PC3 and DU145 cell proliferation^[2].
Bexarotene (20 and 40 μM) represses cyclin D1 and cyclin D3 expression in PC3 and DU145 cells^[2].

In Vivo

Bexarotene (1 mg/kg/day) is effective in blocking the development of behavioral deficits and dopamine neuron degeneration in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease (PD) producing significantly reduced changes in both triglycerides and T4 serum^[1].
Bexarotene is an effective preventive agent against lung tumor growth and progression. Bexarotene (100 mg/kg by gavage) inhibits both tumor multiplicity and tumor volume in mice of all three genotypes (p53^wt/wtK-ras^wt/wt, p53^val135/wtK-ras^wt/wt, or p53^wt/wtK-ras^ko/wt). Bexarotene reduces the progression of adenoma to adenocarcinoma by ～50% in both p53^wt/wtK-ras^ko/wt and p53^wt/wtK-ras^wt/wt mice^[3].

Stock Solution Working Solution

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: 5% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 50% Saline

Solubility: 2.62 mg/mL (7.52 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

Protocol 2

Add each solvent one by one: 5% DMSO 95% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

Solubility: 2.62 mg/mL (7.52 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

Protocol 3

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline

Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.97 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.

Protocol 4

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.97 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

Protocol 5

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil

Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.97 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 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 (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
