A panel of GICs lines was treated with various concentrations of γ secretase inhibitors BMS-708163. Cells were treated with increasing concentrations of γ secretase inhibitors in triplicate wells for 72 hours, and cell viability was assessed by CellTiter-Blue assay as described in Materials and Methods. The results shown are of a single experiment with three independent replicates cell viability was measured by CellTiter-Blue assay. The graph depicts cell viability at 72 hours. Cell viability in the vehicle control was considered as to be 100%.

Nuclear targeting of anMan-containing HS degradation products is suppressed by β-secretase inhibition in WT and Tg2576 MEFs and by γ-secretase inhibition in WT but not in Tg2576 MEFs. A-H, representative immunofluorescence images of wild-type MEF cells (A-D) and Tg2576 cells (E-H) treated with 100 nm β-inhibitor (A, B, E, and F) or 10 nM BMS-708163 (C, D, G, and H) for 48 h followed by treatment with 1 mm ascorbate for 1 h (B, D, F, and H) and then stained with DAPI and mAb AM. Bar, 20 um. Tg2576, MEFs from AD mouse model; DAPI, nuclear stain; Asc, ascorbate. These experiments were repeated twice.

Aβ40 inhibition by γ-secretase inhibitors, DAPT and BMS-708163 (BMS). The amount of Aβ40 and Aβ42 in PS1-WT neurons treated with DMSO was defined as 1.0. *P < 0.05, as determined by Steel's test in comparison to PS1-G378E neurons treated with DMSO. Four independent experiments, each time in triplicates were performed (n = 4). Mean ± SD.

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.
Bio Calculators
Molarity Calculator
Calculate the mass, volume or concentration required for a solution. The Selleck molarity calculator is based on the following equation:
Mass (mg) = Concentration (mM) × Volume (mL) × Molecular Weight (g/mol)
*When preparing stock solutions, please always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the via label and MSDS / COA (available on product pages).
Dilution Calculator
Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution. The Selleck dilution calculator is based on the following equation:
Concentration (start) x Volume (start) = Concentration (final) x Volume (final)
This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2 ( Input Output )
* When preparing stock solutions always use the batch-specific molecular weight of the product found on the vial label and MSDS / COA (available online).

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
