In Vitro

Reversan (15 μM; 7 h) pre-treatment of A172 and U251 GBM cell lines significantly enhances temozolomide-, vincristine-, and etoposide-induced cell death, as measured by reduced cell viability in MTT assays[1].
Reversan (15 μM; 7 h) pre-treatment of MZ-327 and MZ-18 primary GBM cell lines significantly enhances temozolomide-, vincristine-, and etoposide-induced cell death, as measured by reduced cell viability in MTT assays[1].
Reversan (15 μM; 7 h) pre-treatment of MZ-304 and MZ-256 recurrent GBM cell lines significantly enhances temozolomide-, vincristine-, and etoposide-induced cell death, as measured by reduced cell viability in MTT assays[1].
Reversan (15 μM; 7 h) pre-treatment of U251, MZ-327, and MZ-256 GBM cell lines does not significantly affect cell proliferation rates[1].
Reversan (15 μM; 7 h) pre-treatment of U251, MZ-327, and MZ-256 GBM cell lines does not significantly alter cell migration as measured by 2D wound closure assays[1].
Reversan (10 μM; 24 h) induces MRP1 inhibition in MRP1-overexpressing MCF7/VP-LacZ cells, as measured by increased doxorubicin-mediated p53-responsive reporter activity[2].
Reversan (10 μM; 10 min pre-incubation plus 100 min co-incubation with daunorubicin) selectively increases accumulation of the MRP1 substrate daunorubicin in MRP1-overexpressing MCF7/VP cells but not parental MCF7 cells[2].
Reversan (5 μM; 18 h co-incubation with chemotherapeutic drugs) selectively sensitizes MRP1-overexpressing MCF7/VP cells to MRP1 substrate drugs, with 14.6-fold sensitization to vincristine, 11.6-fold to etoposide, and 3.8-fold to doxorubicin, but no effect on non-MRP1 substrates[2].
Reversan (10 μM; 18 h co-incubation with chemotherapeutic drugs) sensitizes multiple MRP1-expressing human tumor cell lines to MRP1 substrate drugs, with the strongest effect in SK-RC45 cells treated with vincristine[2].
Reversan (10 μM; 18 h co-incubation with substrate drugs) does not inhibit MRP2, MRP3, MRP4, or MRP5, but does inhibit P-gp to significantly sensitize P-gp-overexpressing cells to vincristine[2].
Reversan (10 μM; 18 h co-incubation with etoposide) is a potent MRP1 inhibitor, increasing MCF7/VP cell sensitivity to etoposide 25-fold and demonstrating 6-8 times greater potency than most tested reference MRP1 modulators[2].

Reversan (10 mg/kg; i.p.) in combination with etoposide increases neutrophil counts (protecting against etoposide-induced neutropenia) and enhances etoposide's efficacy against BE(2)-C human neuroblastoma xenografts in nude mice[2].

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% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: 1.56 mg/mL (3.53 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 1.56 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (15.6 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

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.
