Description

Isocorydine is isolated from Dicranostigma leptopodum (Maxim.) Fedde (DLF). Isocorydine combines with Doxorubicin (DOX) has a promising potential to eradicate hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)[1].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

Isocorydine (0-400 ug/ml; 48 hours) show a significant decrease in the IC50 for ICD and DOX, the CI values are 0.605, 0.644, 0.804, and 0.707 respectively for Huh-7, Hep-G2, SNU-449 and SNU-387[1].
Isocorydine (0-400 ug/ml; 48 hours) abrogates DOX-induced upregulation of mesenchymal markers and the downregulation of epithelial markers in human HCC cell lines[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: Huh-7, Hep-G2 , SNU-387, SNU-449 cells
Concentration: 0-400 ug/ml
Incubation Time: 24 hours
Result: Had a higher cytotoxicity in HCC cells in comparison to ICD or DOX alone.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: Huh-7, Hep-G2 , SNU-387, SNU-449 cells
Concentration:
Incubation Time: 24 hours
Result: Downregulated protein levels of Claundin-1 and E-cadherin.
In Vivo

Isocorydine (intraperitoneal injection; 0.4 mg/kg; every 2 days for 2 weeks) retards the tumor growth, but the combined treatment of Doxorubicin (DOX) or ICD significantly inhibits tumor growth[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: Female nude mice[1]
Dosage: 0.4 mg/ml
Administration: Injected intraperitoneally every 2 days for 2 weeks
Result: Combined treatment of isocorydine and DOX showed a promising potential to eradicate HCC.

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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.32 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.

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.
