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
HIF-1α [1]
In vitro

PX-478 2HCl lowers HIF-1α protein levels and HIF-1 transactivation in hypoxia and in normoxia in a variety of cancer cell lines, but has a more pronounced effect on translation of proteins, such as HIF-1α in hypoxia. [2]

This compound also enhances the radiosensitivity of prostate carcinoma PC3 cells. [3]

In vivo

In HT-29 human colon cancer xenografts, PX-478 2HCl suppresses HIF-1alpha levels and inhibits the expression of HIF-1 target genes including vascular endothelial growth factor and the glucose transporter-1. In addition, this compound (100 or 120 mg/kg i.p.) also shows antitumor activity including cures against several established human tumor xenografts that is related to the levels of HIF-1α. [1]

In high-fat-diet mice, this chemical causes reduced fibrosis and fewer inflammatory infiltrates in their adipose tissues. [4]
