PMA chemical (Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) PKC activator

Cat.No.S7791

PMA (Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate), a potent activator of PKC, is active at nanomolar concentrations. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) induces sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P).PMA has strong excitability on the skin and mucous membrane. Special protection is required when using PMA. Wear gloves and mask to avoid direct contact in any way.

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

In endothelial cells, PMA (Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) increases levels of Thy-1 mRNA and protein, induces Thy-1 up-regulation and inhibits capillary-like tube formation and endothelial cell migration.

In vivo

In the zebrafish model, PMA (Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) initially enhances endothelial cell migration, subsequently activating the PKC-δ/Syk/NF-κB-mediated pathway to up-regulate Thy-1, which in turn inhibits endothelial cell migration.
