UTL-5g
Based on 1 Customer Validation
UTL-5g (GBL-5g), an anti-inflammatory TNF-α inhibitor, has chemoprotective and liver radioprotective effects. UTL-5g lowers hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and myelotoxicity induced by Cisplatin through TNF-α inhibition among other factors.

Biological Activity
RAW 264.7 macrophages are transfected with the respective reporter assay plasmids, pretreated with UTL-5g at 1, 10 or 50 μM for 60 min and then challenged with 100 ng/ml LPS. After a 16 h incubation, transcription factor activity is measured. Transcription factors that shows a UTL-5g dose-dependent decrease in activity in two experiments are categorized as being disrupted by UTL-5g.
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
UTL-5g (60 mg/kg; p.o.; daily for 4 days) shows positive effects in increasing the survival rates and extending the survival times[3].

-
Animal Model:C57BL/6, male mice (8-10 weeks)[1]
-
Dosage:15, 30, and 60 mg/kg
-
Administration:I.p.; before irradiation, daily x 5
-
Result:Blood levels of TGF-β were lowered.
-
Animal Model:BDF1 female mice[3]
-
Dosage:P.o.; daily for 4 days
-
Administration:60 mg/kg (30 min before i.p. injection of Cisplatin at 10, 15, and 20 mg/kg respectively on Day 0)
-
Result:Increased the survival rate and delayed the time to death for mice treated with 150% of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Cisplatin (15 mg/kg). At 200% of the MTD of Cisplatin (20 mg/kg), treatment of UTL-5g increased the survival rate and delayed the time to death.

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.
