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
neutrophil elastase
In vitro
sivelestat reduces the levels of inflammatory mediators by inhibiting NF-kB. It suppresses the growth of gastric cancer cells by inhibiting the release of TGF-α stimulated by NE; Sivelestat suppresses iNOS gene expression in proinflammatory cytokine-stimulated hepatocytes.
In vivo
sivelestat could attenuate sepsis-related kidney injury in rats. It blocks GAPDH/Siah1 which is a novel signaling pathway during the progression of spinal cord injury. Administration of sivelestat attenuates pulmonary fibrosis after acute lung injury in mice.
