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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.33 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

Protocols

Carcinogenicity Bioassay
A carcinogenicity bioassay detects whether long-term exposure to a test substance increases benign or malignant tumor incidence, changes tumor spectrum, or shortens tumor latency in experimental animals; the classical rodent design exposes rats and/or mice to multiple dose levels for most of their lifespan, followed by complete necropsy and histopathologic diagnosis of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions. The readout is tumor incidence by organ, sex, species, dose group, and survival status; interpretation requires concurrent controls, dose-response assessment, survival-adjusted tumor statistics, and pathology review because mortality, spontaneous tumor background, and body-weight effects can influence apparent tumor rates.

Fibrosis/Collagen Morphometry
Fibrosis and collagen morphometry is based on the quantitative visualization of fibrillar collagen deposition in tissue sections using histochemical stains such as Sirius Red (Picrosirius Red) or Masson's trichrome, followed by image-based or polarization-enhanced analysis to estimate collagen proportional area as a surrogate of extracellular matrix accumulation during fibrotic remodeling. Sirius Red combined with polarized light microscopy enhances detection of collagen fibers due to birefringence properties, enabling more specific visualization of collagen type I and III fibrils compared to conventional bright-field histology, while whole-section or region-restricted digital morphometry reduces field-selection bias in fibrosis assessment. Alternative quantitative approaches include second harmonic generation (SHG) and two-photon excited fluorescence microscopy, which enable label-free detection of fibrillar collagen and have been validated against histological staining and biochemica

Collagen: Sirius Red Staining
Sirius Red or picrosirius red staining is a histochemical method for visualizing collagen-rich extracellular matrix in tissue sections, and collagen fibers are detected as red-stained structures under bright-field microscopy with enhanced birefringence under polarized light. Picrosirius red is useful for assessing total collagen organization, distribution, and fibrosis burden, but polarized color should not be interpreted as a definitive collagen type I versus type III readout because color is affected by fiber orientation, thickness, and packing.

RNA extraction experimental
By lysing cells, releasing RNA, and removing impurities such as proteins and DNA, high-purity RNA products are finally obtained. The commonly used traditional method is the guanidine isothiocyanate/phenol/chloroform method (Trizol), which is suitable for a variety of animal materials including animal tissues, microorganisms, cultured cells, etc., and most plant materials.

Connective Tissue: Masson's Trichrome/Collagen Trichrome Staining
Masson’s Trichrome (collagen/trichrome staining) is a histological technique that differentially stains tissue compartments using sequential acidic dyes to distinguish collagen from muscle and cytoplasmic components based on dye affinity and tissue permeability differences, enabling visualization of fibrosis and connective tissue architecture in histological sections. The classical formulation typically uses Weigert's iron hematoxylin for nuclear staining, Biebrich scarlet-acid fuchsin for cytoplasm and muscle, and aniline blue (or light green variants) for collagen, producing a characteristic blue/green collagen signal contrasted against red cytoplasm and dark nuclei. The staining principle relies on selective displacement of smaller dye molecules by larger anionic dyes in collagen-rich regions under controlled acidified conditions, which enhances collagen-specific dye retention. This property makes the method widely used for fibrosis assessment in organs such as heart, liver, lung, a

Soft Agar Colony Formation Assay
Soft agar colony formation assay measures anchorage-independent growth, in which transformed or tumorigenic cells proliferate as colonies in a semisolid agar matrix while many non-transformed adherent cells fail to proliferate without attachment; classic studies showed that growth in semisolid medium correlates with tumorigenicity in nude mice, and later protocol papers describe the method as a stringent in vitro assay for malignant transformation. The readout is the number, size, morphology, or signal intensity of colonies formed within agar after incubation; published formats include manual colony counting after staining, 96-well or 384-well quantitative formats, DNA-binding dye detection, MTT/tetrazolium-based detection, digital image analysis, and PCR-based marker detection from soft agar cultures.
