Working concentration: mg/ml;

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.

Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC50/Ki
Glucocorticoid receptor [1]
In vitro
Loteprednol etabonate possesses a metabolically labile function, the 17beta-ester, that is designed to be rapidly deactivated in the systemic circulation. This compound exhibits a binding affinity which is 4.3 times that of dexamethasone, both compounds having a Hill factor close to 1 whereas PJ90 and PJ91 does not show any affinity to the receptor. [1]
In vivo
Loteprednol etabonate administrated directly into the joint effectively blocks the inflammatory response. This compound prevents the adverse inflammatory effects of antigen action in a rabbit acute experimental model for arthritis. [2] It (oral) reaches the upper GI tract effectively, but not the colon, due to absorption and/or decomposition in rats. [3] This chemical shows a rapid, dose-dependent elimination with a total blood clearance (CLtotal) of higher than 60 ml/min/kg in rats. It absorbes systemically, after topical administration, can be rapidly transformed to the inactive metabolites, and eliminates from the body mainly through the bile and urine. [4]
