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
Trolox (6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-Carboxylic Acid) is a vitamin E analog and a direct scavenger of peroxyl and alkoxyl radicals. This compound impairs PT4 cell survival, has minor effects on ROS levels and causes wide deregulation of cell cycle genes[1]. It enhances As2O3-mediated apoptosis in APL, myeloma, and breast cancer cells. This chemical inhibits DNA damage formation induced by singlet oxygen in human lymphoblast WTK-1 cells and protects red blood cells during photodynamic treatment[2].
In vivo
After cerebral ischemia reperfusion, Trolox prescription increases anti-apoptotic proteins and decreased proapoptotic proteins thus protects neurons of the hippocampus and caused improvement of memory[3].
