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
Nrf2
In vitro
Oltipraz, as a chemoprotective agent, induces Phase II detoxification enzyme activity in a Nrf2-dependent manner. In human HT29 colon cancer cells, this compound inhibits the induction of HIF-1α by insulin, hypoxia or CoCl2 by significantly accelerating degradation of HIF-1α protein.
In vivo
Oltipraz (500 mg/kg, p.o.) significantly reduces multiplicity of gastric neoplasia in wild-type mice by 55%, but has no effect on tumor burden in nrf2-deficient mice. In BALB/c nude mice transplanted with HCT116 cells, this compound (200 mg/kg, p.o.) inhibits tumor growth and angiogenesis via inhibition of HIF-1α. In rats on a CDAA diet, it attenuates the progression of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis-related fibrosis.
