Descripciòn
IC50 & Target
IC50: 23 μM (p53)[1]
In Vitro
Pifithrin-α hydrobromide (PFT β hydrobromide), an inhibitor of the p53 protein, is regarded as a lead compound for cancer and neurodegenerative disease therapy. Pifithrin-α is very unstable in culture medium and rapidly converts to its condensation product pifithrin-β, the N-acetyl derivative[2]. After 24 h, the viability assay shows that the pretreatments with 1 and 10 μM pifithrin-β exerts neuroprotective effects[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only. .

Solvente y solubilidad
In Vitro:
DMSO : 10 mg/mL (28.63 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
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.
