-
Animal Model:Female B6C3F1 mice aged 7-8 weeks old[2]
-
Dosage:1.25, 2.5, 5% w/v
-
Administration:Topical application on the dorsal surface of each ear (25 μL/ear), once daily for 28 consecutive days
-
Result:Resulted in significant absorption, as evidenced by increased serum and urine concentrations.
Significantly increased liver weight at 5% dosage, accompanied by hepatocellular hypertrophy in the centrilobular region.
Elevated glucose and decreased urea nitrogen at 5% dosage in serum.
Caused epidermal hyperplasia, hyperkeratosis, dermal mixed cell inflammation, and focal fibrosis in the skin.
Increased cellularity of B cells, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and NK cells, with enhanced eosinophil frequency and number in draining lymph nodes.
Upregulated lipid metabolism-related genes (e.g., Cd36, Lpl, Serpine1) and altered PPAR isoform expression (Pparδ downregulation, Pparγ upregulation) in the liver, while skin gene expression showed increased inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TSLP) and danger signals (S100a7a, S100a8), along with upregulated skin barrier genes (Flg, Krt10).

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: ≥ 5 mg/mL (18.94 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 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.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL (18.94 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
