Description

Oltipraz has an inhibitory effect on HIF-1α activation in a time-dependent manner, completely abrogating HIF-1α induction at ≥10 μM concentrations, the IC50 of Oltipraz for HIF-1α inhibition is 10 μM. Oltipraz is a potent Nrf2 activator.

IC50 & Target

IC50: 10 μM (HIF-1α)[1];
Nrf2[4]

In Vitro

Oltipraz inhibits HIF-1α activity and HIF-1α-dependent tumor growth, which may result from a decrease in HIF-1α stability through S6K1 inhibition in combination with an H2O2-scavenging effect. Oltipraz treatment also inhibits HIF-1α activation stimulated by either hypoxia or CoCl2. Oltipraz is a cancer chemopreventive agent and has an inhibitory effect on angiogenesis and tumor growth. [1] Oltipraz is also a competitive inhibitor of this cytochrome P450, with an apparent Ki of 10 μM. [2]

In Vivo

In wild-type mice, hepatic levels of mRNA for all of the genes analyzed were significantly increased after Oltipraz treatment, with the highest increase (treated/control) for NQO1 mRNA levels (7.6-fold). The Northern blot analyses demonstrated that the observed increases in GST and NQO1 activities by Oltipraz in wild-type mice were preceded by significant elevations in RNA expression. Interestingly, mRNA levels of Nrf2 itself were increased more than 3-fold by Oltipraz treatment. [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    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 1 mg/mL (4.42 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (10.0 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 1 mg/mL (4.42 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (10.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, 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.
