In vitro

Saquinavir (Ro 31-8959) is an effective selective HIV protease inhibitor with an average IC50 of 2.7 nM in JM cells, which inhibits the spread of HIV infection and the production of cytopathic effects.<sup><a class="sref" href="#s_ref">[1]</a></sup>
Cell Research Cell lines JM cells
Concentrations 0.5-100 nM
Incubation Time 3 days
Method

JM cells (2 × 105 cells/ml) were exposed to HIV-1 (GB8) at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 0.01 syncytium-forming units/cell. Aliquots (0.2 ml) of cells were placed in microtitre wells with appropriate dilutions of Ro 31-8959 added to 5 replicate cultures. After incubation for 3 days at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 in air, syncytia were counted.

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.
