5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O

Validated by Selleck labs. Should you need adjustments to this formulation, contact our sales team for custom testing.

2.45mg/ml (9.89mM) Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 49 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
Clear solution
5% DMSO 95% Corn oil

Validated by Selleck labs. Should you need adjustments to this formulation, contact our sales team for custom testing.

0.35mg/ml (1.41mM) Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 7 mg/ml clear DMSO stock solution to 950 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Forchlorfenuron (CPPU) is a synthetic cytokinin that inhibits septins and exhibits anti-parasitic, anticancer, and anti-angiogenic activities.
Targets
septins [1]
In vitro Forchlorfenuron (FCF) is a plant cytokinin shown to disrupt septin localization in budding yeast. FCF alters septin assembly in vitro without affecting either actin or tubulin polymerization. In live mammalian cells, FCF dampens septin dynamics and induces the assembly of abnormally large septin structures. FCF has a low level of cytotoxicity, and these effects are reversed upon FCF washout. Significantly, FCF treatment induces mitotic and cell migration defects that phenocopy the effects of septin depletion by small interfering RNA. FCF targets the filamentous assembly of divergent septin isoforms (e.g. Cdc3/10/11/12 (42), SEPT2, SEPT7) reversibly and across species.
In vivo Forchlorfenuron (FCF) has low oral toxicity in rats with an LD50 of 4940 mg/kg bw in male rats and 4899 mg/kg bw in females.

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[1]

  • Cell lines

    HeLa or MDCK cells

  • Concentrations

    6.25-500 μM

  • Incubation Time

    4 h

  • Method

    HeLa or MDCK cells are plated overnight on collagen-coated 35-mm tissue culture dishes and then treated with DMSO or FCF for 4 h. Cells are trypsinized, resuspended in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, and mixed in a 1:1 ratio with trypan blue at room temperature for 1 min. Blue and non-blue cells are counted using a hemocytometer.
