Description

Beta-Sitosterol (purity>75%) is a phytosterol with oral activity. Beta-Sitosterol (purity>75%) interferes with a variety of cell signaling pathways, including the cell cycle, apoptosis and cell proliferation. Beta-Sitosterol (purity>75%) has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antitumor activities[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Beta-Sitosterol purity>75% (16 μM, 1, 3, 5 days) can inhibit the growth of MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells and induce cell apoptosis[1].
Beta-Sitosterol purity>75% (120, 240 μM, 24 h) shows significant dose-dependent growth inhibition on COLO 320 DM cells (IC50 266.2 μM). The expression of β-catenin and PCNA antigens in human colon cancer cells was inhibited by scavenging reactive oxygen species to induce cell apoptosis[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.

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.
