In Vivo

Sulpiride (50 mg/kg; Subcutaneous injection; Single dose) can increase the dopamine level in Sprague-Dawley rats[2].
Sulpiride (5-20 mg/kg; Intraperitoneal injection; Single dose) improves memory, but induces anxiety in Parkinson's disease (PD) mice at a dose of 20 mg/kg[3].
Sulpiride (25-100 mg/kg; Oral gavage; Once daily for 18 days) can enhance the anti-tumor activity of dexamethasone (DEX) (HY-14648) (1 and 8 mg/kg) in combination with dexamethasone in nu/nu nude mice bearing MCF-7/Adr xenografts.Without significant toxicity to organs[4].

Animal Model: Sprague-Dawley rats model[2]
Dosage: 50 mg/kg
Administration: Subcutaneous injection (s.c.); Single dose.
Result: Caused dopamine concentrations in the dialysates to roughly double.
Animal Model: 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) male NMRI mouse model of Parkinson’s disease (PD)[3]
Dosage: 5 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.); Single dose
Result: Decreased %OAT (open-arm time) but had no significant effect on %OAE (open-arm entries) and locomotor activity.
Animal Model: Female nu/nu nude mouse models of breast cancer bearing MCF-7/Adr xenografts[4]
Dosage: 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg
Administration: Oral gavage (p.o.); Once daily for 18 days. In combination with DEX (1 and 10 mg/kg; p.o.; Once daily for 18 days)
Result: When used in combination with DEX (1 mg/kg) at 50 m/kg, enhanced the tumor suppression rate (14.4%).
When combined with DEX (8 mg/kg) at 25, 50, and 100 mg/kg, enhanced the tumor suppression rate by 30.2%, 27.55%, and 14.97%, respectively.

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 (7.32 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 (7.32 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.
