UFP-803
UFP-803 is a potent urotensin-II receptor (UT) ligand. UFP-803 has lower residual agonist activity, so it may be an important tool for the investigations on the role played by the UT system in physiology and pathology.

Peptide Solubility and Storage Guidelines:
1. Calculate the length of the peptide.
2. Calculate the overall charge of the entire peptide according to the following table:
| Contents | Assign value | |
|---|---|---|
| Acidic amino acid | Asp (D), Glu (E), and the C-terminal -COOH. | -1 |
| Basic amino acid | Arg (R), Lys (K), His (H), and the N-terminal -NH2 | +1 |
| Neutral amino acid | Gly (G), Ala (A), Leu (L), Ile (I), Val (V), Cys (C), Met (M), Thr (T), Ser (S), Phe (F), Tyr (Y), Trp (W), Pro (P), Asn (N), Gln (Q) | 0 |
3. Recommended solution:
| Overall charge of peptide | Details |
|---|---|
| Negative (<0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, add NH4OH (<50 μL). 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, add DMSO (50-100 μL) to solubilize the peptide. |
| Positive (>0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in water first. 2. If water fails, try dissolving the peptide in a 10%-30% acetic acid solution. 3. If the peptide still does not dissolve, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO. |
| Zero (=0) |
1. Try to dissolve the peptide in organic solvent (acetonitrile, methanol, etc.) first. 2. For very hydrophobic peptides, try dissolving the peptide in a small amount of DMSO, and then dilute the solution with water to the desired concentration. |
Protocols

Protocol for Hematoxylin-Eosin (H&E) Staining
Hematoxylin-eosin staining is a routine histological method that stains nuclei mainly blue-purple with hemalum and stains cytoplasm, extracellular matrix, and many stromal components pink with eosin, allowing tissue architecture, cell morphology, necrosis, inflammation, fibrosis, tumor growth pattern, and treatment-associated injury to be evaluated by light microscopy. In cancer cells, primary neurons, mouse tumor models, intestinal organoids, inflammatory macrophage preparations, and drug-screening tissues, H&E is a morphology assay rather than a molecular assay; it should be interpreted with complementary molecular or immunostaining assays when the biological question concerns specific proteins, RNA levels, ferroptosis, mitophagy, or immune phenotypes.
