Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000)  (Synonyms: DSS (MW 5000); DXS (MW 5000))

Cat. No.: HY-116282 Assay: 99.20%
SDS COA Handling Instructions

Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) is a polymer of anhydroglucose with a molecular weight of 5000. Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) can be used to induce acute colitis and cause apoptosis of colonic epithelial cells in mice. The concentration dose used in the study was 5% (in feed, w/w). The sulfated polysaccharide dextran sulfate is also an effective inhibitor of HIV. Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) can significantly inhibit HIV-1 replication at a concentration that does not significantly inhibit the blood coagulation process. Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) protects MT-4 cells from HIV-1-induced cellular pathogenicity. Dextran sulfate-induced colitis can be inhibited by Puerarin (HY-N0145), Baicalein (HY-N0196), β-Caryophyllene (HY-N1415).

In Vitro

Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) (25 μg/mL; 24 h) completely protected MT-4 cells from HIV-1-induced cytopathogenicity[1].
Dextran sulfate sodium salt (DSS) was labeled with 2-aminopyridine (yielding pyridylamino-DSS or PA-DSS) and used to examine its metabolism in Caco-2 cells. PA-DSS (MW 5000) (3%; 24 h) rapidly inhibited the energy metabolism of Caco-2 cells[2].
Cells were fixed with ethanol, permeabilized with acetone, and stained with 0.05% toluidine blue solution for 20 min. The results showed[2]:
Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) reacted heterochromatically in cells, and the color development results showed that it was mainly bound to the cell nucleus and depolymerized to below MW 2500 after entering the cell.

In Vivo

Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) induces inflammation mainly in the colon rather than in the stomach or small intestine. Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) (3%, mixed in feed; fed for 8 days) can induce colitis in mice, causing weight loss, mucosal damage, reduced cell mitotic rate and induced apoptosis of colonic epithelial cells. Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) is more effective than Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 2500) (statistically significant differences in all indicators were observed on the 6th day after co-induction)[2].
Dextran sulfate sodium salt (average MW 5000) (3%, added to drinking water; gavage for 10 days) can induce colitis in rats, causing blood in stool and decreased RBC and WBC indices[3].

Induction of Colitis[2][3][4][5]
Background
Adding dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) to the drinking water of mice or rats can induce colon epithelial damage and a strong inflammatory response that lasts for several days, inducing colitis[4]. Clinical manifestations of colitis typically include watery diarrhea, hematochezia, and weight loss. The induced symptoms are very similar to human ulcerative colitis (UC) and can be used to study the occurrence and development mechanisms of acute and chronic colitis. Models can be created in many species of animals: mice, rats, zebrafish, pigs, fruit flies, etc.
Specific Mmodeling Methods
Mice[2]: C57Bl/6n mice • male • specific pathogen-free • 6 week-old
Administration: 5% (W/W of diet) • po • 8 days
Rat[3]: SPF-grade Wistar rats • male • 7 weeks old
Administration: 3% w/v, 2 mL/kg • orally gavage (added in drinking water) • 10 days
Note
Dextran sulfate sodium salt (MW 5000) depolymerizes to MW 1800 molecules upon autoclaving (115°C, 15 min, 1.7 atm), with approximately 70% of the sulfate groups in each Dextran sulfate sodium salt molecule being depleted. Therefore, filter sterilization is recommended[2].


Modeling Indicators
Phenotypic observations: weight loss, blood in stool
Tissue level: increased mucosal injury score, increased white blood cell (WBC) count, decreased red blood cell (RBC) count
Cell level: cell division cycle arrest, decreased mitotic rate, apoptosis of colon epithelial cells
Opposite Product(s): Puerarin (HY-N0145)[5]; Monotropein (HY-N0648)[6]; β-Caryophyllene (HY-N1415)[7]

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.
