Hydrocortisone (Cortisol; H-Cort) is a steroid hormone and/or endogenous glucocorticoid produced by the adrenal gland for the treatment of adrenocortical insufficiency. Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. Hydrocortisone initially binds to the cytoplasmic glucocorticoid receptor then the receptor-ligand complex is translocated to the nucleus where it initiates the transcription of genes encoding for anti-inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines and lipocortins.

Hydrocortisone (50 nM) reveals dose-dependent downregulation of GR transcripts in hCMEC/D3 cells. Supplementation of Hydrocortisone in serum-reduced cell differentiation media resulted in a considerable increase in TER in hCMEC/D3 monolayers [1]. Hydrocortisone-treated dendritic cells (DC) revealed lower expression of MHC II molecules, the costimulatory molecule CD86, and the DC-specific marker CD83, as well as a substantial reduction in IL-12 release. Hydrocortisone-treated DC decreased IFN-γ production but produced enhanced IL-4 release without changes in IL-5 [2]. Hydrocortisone lowers postischemic oxidative stress, perfusion pressure, and exudate production. Hydrocortisone suppresses post-ischemic shedding of syndecan-1, heparan sulfate and hyaluronan, and histamine release from resident mast cells [3].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.90 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.90 mM) (saturation unknown) in 5% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 50% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. View More

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
