Troglitazone (2-200 μM, 24 h) is cytotoxic to the pancreatic cancer cell lines (MIA Paca2 and PANC-1 cells), with IC50s of 49.9±1.2 and 51.3±5.3 μM, respectively[2].
Troglitazone (50 μM, 24 h) increases chromatin condensation in MIA Paca2 and PANC-1 cells, enhances the activity of caspase-3 and decreases Bcl-2 expression[2].
Troglitazone (0-4 μM, 12 h) sensitizes TRAIL-mediated apoptosis in human lung adenocarcinoma cells (A549, HCC-15 and
Calu-3)[3].
Troglitazone (0-4 μM, 12 h) induces autophagy and sensitized apoptosis mediated by TRAIL in A549 cells[1].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 125 mg/mL (283.10 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 1 year; -20°C, 6 months. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 1 year. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 6 months.

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 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.71 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.

Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protocol
Briefly, cells are seeded into 96-well plates at a density of 1 × 105 cells/well and incubated for 24 h. The cells are treated with Troglitazone in the presence or absence of other chemicals for a further 24 h using FBS-free medium. The assay utilizes the conversion of alamar blue reagent to fluorescent resorufin by metabolically active cells. The resorufin signal is measured at an excitation wavelength of 530 nm and an emission wavelength of 580 nm. The 50% growth inhibitory concentrations (IC50) are calculated according to the sigmoid inhibitory effect model E = IC50 γ/(IC50 γ + Cγ), where E represents the surviving fraction (% of control), C represents the drug concentration in the medium, and γ represents the Hill coefficient. For co-exposure studies, the Troglitazone dosage is set to approximately the IC50 value for each cell line[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Balb/c male mice (4 weeks old) are subcutaneously inoculated in the back with MIA Paca2 cells (5 × 106 cells/100 μL in PBS) 14 days prior to starting Troglitazone administration. Mice are then orally administered 200 mg/kg Troglitazone in 0.5% methylcellulose solution or vehicle daily for 5 weeks. Tumor size is measured bi-dimensionally and the volume is calculated using the formula (length × width2) × 0.5. Body weights of mice are also monitored throughout the experiment[2].
