In Vitro

Dinoprost (Prostaglandin F2α; 1 μM; for 24 hours) induces ER stress, autophagy, and apoptosis in goat luteal cells[1].
? Dinoprost (1 μM; for 24 hours) significantly increases the expression of GRP78 and UPR sensors[1].

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

Apoptosis Analysis[1]

Cell Line: Goat luteal cells
Concentration: 1 μM
Incubation Time: For 24 hours
Result: Significantly increased the apoptotic rate (15.62±3.12%).

Cell Autophagy Assay[1]

Cell Line: Goat luteal cells
Concentration: 1 μM
Incubation Time: For 24 hours
Result: There was extensive overlap between LC3 and LAMP1 in luteal cells and autophagolysosomes were formed in goat luteal cells.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: Goat luteal cells
Concentration: 1 μM
Incubation Time: For 24 hours
Result: The expression of GRP78 and UPR sensors including cleaved ATF6, phosphorylated-EIF2S1, EIF2S1, ATF4, phosphorylated-IRE1, autophagy-related protein LC3-II, and pro-apoptosis factor cleaved Caspase3 increased significantly in the cells.

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    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.05 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.05 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.

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.
