ProtocolIn VitroK6PC-5 (1-10 μM; 24 h) increases the involucrin and loricrin levels in a dose-dependent manner in normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs). K6PC-5 promotes differentiation and proliferation of keratinocytes via intracellular Ca2+ signaling. In addition, K6PC-5 stimulates the phosphorylation of p42/44 extracellular signal-regulated kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase.
In VivoIn intrinsically aged hairless mice (56 weeks old), 1% K6PC-5 is applied topically for 2 weeks. This K6PC-5 treatment significantly increases both the number of dermal fibroblasts and collagen production. As a consequence, dermal thickness also increased significantly.
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.
