Thymidine (NSC 21548), a pyrimidine nucleoside that is composed of the pyrimidine base thymine attached to the sugar deoxyribose, pairs with adenine when DNA synthesis.[1]

Cell Research Cell lines USP28-depleted MDA-MB-231 cells
Concentrations 4 mM
Incubation Time 18 h
Method

72 hours after shRNA lentiviruses infection, MDA-MB-231 cells are treated with 4 mM Thymidine for 18 hours. Release and harvest cells at the time points of 0, 6 and 18 hours, and then determine the cell cycle distribution by FACS analysis.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid 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 master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
