Product Description

Parthenolide, formerly known as NSC-157035, is a novel sesquiterpene lactone that was isolated from the herb feverfew with the potential to treat cancer. It works as an NF-κB activation inhibitor. In HeLa cells, parthenolide promotes apoptosis and growth inhibition via autophagy by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, as well as mitochondrial membrane depolarization and ROS production.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
HDAC1 ; NF-κB; MDM2; p53
ln Vitro
Parthenolide (PTL), a sesquiterpene lactone isolated from feverfew shoots, inhibits the activity of the enzyme ubiquitin-specific peptidase 7 (USP7) and deubiquitinates and stabilizes β-catenin, the primary transcriptional factor of the Wnt signaling pathway, indicating that PTL is a promising anticancer agent that targets aberrant USP7/Wnt signaling.[4]
ln Vivo
In a subcutaneous xenograft mouse model of gastric cancer (GC), parthenolide (PN), a P65 inhibitor, significantly increases tumor volumes that can be inhibited by gastrin.[5]
Cell Assay
HEK293W cells are seeded in 96-well plates with three repeats and treated with PTL for 24 hours to confirm that PTL is a Wnt signaling inhibitor. HCT116 and SW480 cells are seeded in 96-well plates and transfected with Renilla reporter plasmid (8 ng/well) and SuperTOPFlash (80 ng/well), two luciferase reporter plasmids that are responsive to Wnt/-catenin signaling. Cells are transfected for 3 hours, given different PTL concentrations for 24 hours, and then lysed. Using the Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay kit, the activities of both Firefly and Renilla luciferases are determined.
Animal Protocol
Mice: They use Phb1 knockout mice. We treat males who are 8 to 12 weeks old. A dose of 3 mg/kg of parthenolide is intraperitoneally injected 24 hours and 1 hour prior to bile duct ligation (BDL) or twice weekly over a period of two weeks. For further analysis, liver specimens are quickly frozen.

Shipping Condition
Room temperature (This product is stable at ambient temperature for a few days during ordinary shipping and time spent in Customs)
Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: ~50 mg/mL (~201.4 mM)
Ethanol: ~50 mg/mL (~201.4 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.07 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (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 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.38 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 20.8 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.

*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.

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
