Description

(rel)-β-Tocopherol is a relative configuration of β-Tocopherol. β-Tocopherol is a lipid-soluble form of vitamin E with antioxidant activity[1].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

β-Tocopherol (50 μM, 48 h) slightly inhibits A7r5 (10% inhibition) and CHO cell (20% inhibition) proliferation, while showing no inhibition against HeLa cells[2].
β-Tocopherol (50 μM, 24 h) inhibits PMA (HY-18739)-induced adhesion of human erythroleukemia (HEL) cells (11% inhibition), and inhibits the expression of integrins α4 and α5 on cell surface[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

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

    Solubility: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (3.00 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL EtOH stock solution (12.5 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.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
