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

In vitro
Oxymatrine is a quinolizidine alkaloid extracted from the root of Sophora flavescens, which is used for the treatment of viral hepatitis, cancer, viral myocarditis, gastrointestinal hemorrhage and skin diseases (such as colpitis, psoriasis and eczema). This compound protects mice from fulminant hepatitis induced by GalN/LPS and may block hepatocyte apoptosis and subsequent necrosis through downregulating the production of serum tumor necrosis factor alpha and the expression of Fas and Fas ligand in liver tissue. [1] ) It also shows anti-hepatitis B virus effect in vivo by reducing the contents of HBsAg and HBcAg in transgenic mice liver. [2]
