PB1 is a potent intracellular disulfide reducing agent with several advantages including good cell permeability, the ability to form a high intracellular concentration gradient, and stability. PB1 is a borane-protected TCEP (tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine) analogue. PB1 increases retinal ganglion cells survival after axotomy in vitro at nanomolar and picomolar concentrations. PB1 can be used for the research of neuroprotective.

Description

PB1 is a potent intracellular disulfide reducing agent with several advantages including good cell permeability, the ability to form a high intracellular concentration gradient, and stability. PB1 is a borane-protected TCEP (tris(2-carboxyethyl)phosphine) analogue. PB1 increases retinal ganglion cells survival after axotomy in vitro at nanomolar and picomolar concentrations. PB1 can be used for the research of neuroprotective[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

TCEP[1][2]

In Vitro

PB1 produces a robust activation of the BDNF effector ERK1/2. PB1 promotes RGC survival[1].

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

In Vivo

PB1 (150 μM; intraocular injection; 1 week) attenuates the loss of both RGC (retinal ganglion cells) soma and axons in experimental glaucoma[1].
PB1 protects RGC soma in experimental glaucoma. PB1 single dose limits the biological activity in vivo. PB1 attenuates the loss of both RGC soma and axons in experimental glaucoma. PB1 (0.001~100 μM; 72 hours) is effective at rescuing acutely axotomized retinal ganglion cells[1][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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.44 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 (8.44 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.
