Biological Activity
|
CBP/p300 |
CTB (10, 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 μM; 10 min) enhances p300 HAT activity of p300 in a dosedependent manner[1]. CTB (0-200 μM; 24 hours) inhibits the viability of MCF-7 cells with an IC50 of 85.43 μM[2]. CTB (85.43 μM; 24, 48 and 72 h) induces time dependence apoptosis of MCF-7 cells[2]. CTB (50 uM; 24 h) increases p300/CBP activity , and reduces autophagic flux in primary neurons[3].

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.
