ProtocolIn VitroSemagacestat (LY450139) reduces the secretion of Aβ42, Aβ40, and Aβ38 in 96-well-cultured media and increases β-CTF in cell lysates as expected, although this increase is unexpectedly attenuated at high concentrations.
In VivoSemagacestat (LY450139) is found to decrease both Aβ42 and Aβ40 at 10 mg/kg (22-23% reduction;p<0.01) and increase β-CTF at 0.3-10 mg/kg in a dose-dependent manner (15-162% elevation; p<0.01 at 1-10 mg/kg).
These protocols are for reference only. InvivoChem does not independently validate these methods.

Working concentration: mg/ml;
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 add µL PEG300, mix and clarify, next add µL Tween 80,mix and clarify, next add µL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
Note:
  • (1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
  • (2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
