ln Vitro |
5β-Dihydrocortisol (10-100 μM; 48 h) reduces the viability of MCF-7 cells with an IC50 of 27.59 μM[2]. In MCF-7 cells, 5β-Dihydrocortisol (14 μM; 24 h) causes 2.5% late and 35.6% early apoptosis[2]. Human serum albumin (HAS) exhibits intrinsic fluorescence with a maximum emission peak at 360 nm. It can be quenched with 5β-Dihydrocortisol (1-10 μM; 48 h) without causing any change in the fluorescence peak.

ln Vivo |
In juvenile rabbits, the intraocular pressure (IOP) is raised by topical application of Dexamethasone (0.06%) more effectively when 5β-Dihydrocortisol (0.1-1.0%; 18 d) is used[3].

Cell Viability Assay[2]
Cell Types: MCF-7 and HEK 293 cells Tested Concentrations: 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 μM Incubation Duration: 48 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Inhibited the viability of MCF-7 cells in a dose -dependent manner. No toxicity in terms of cell viability was observed with HEK293 cell line. Apoptosis Analysis[2] Cell Types: MCF-7 cells Tested Concentrations: 14 μM Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours) Experimental Results: Induced 35.6% and 2.5% of early and late apoptosis. |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.71 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. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.71 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline 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.
