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 (6.62 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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.62 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 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 (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Cell Assay
[1]

RAW 264.7 cells are planted in 6-well plates in duplicate at 1,000,000 cells per well with 3 mL of medium (RPMI 1640 medium, supplemented with 10% FBS, Penicillin (100 U/mL) and Streptomycin (100 mg/mL)) and grown for 24 h at 37°C in a 5% CO2 humidified incubator. After 24 h, non-adherent cells and media are removed and replaced with fresh RPMI 1640 medium (3 mL/well). Two wells of adherent macrophages are treated with Poly (I:C) (15 μg/mL). One of the two wells is treated with 27 μM CU CPT 4a. One additional well is treated with only CU CPT 4a (27 μM) only. Plates are then incubated for an additional 24 h. After removal of the medium, cells are washed with PBS (3×1 mL), the 6 well plate is put on ice, then 500 μL of lysis buffer is added in each well (Lysis Buffer: 120 μL 0.5M EDTA; 12 mL Mammalian Protein Extraction Reagent, 100 μL cocktail, 0.36 mL NaCl (5 M, aqueous) ). After 5 min, the mixture is transferred into corresponding 1.5 mL tube, spun for 20 min at 13.2 K rpm in a cold room. Approximately 400 μL of supernatant are collected into new tubes, frozen at -80°C until ready for cytokine measurement[1].

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.
