ProtocolIn VitroGlycocholic acid (GC) increases the cytotoxicity of epirubicin, significantly increases the intracellular accumulation of epirubicin in Caco-2 cells and the absorption of epirubicin in rat small intestine, and intensified epirubicin-induced apoptosis. Glycocholic acid and epirubicin significantly reduce mRNA expression levels of human intestinal MDR1, MDR-associated protein (MRP)1, and MRP2; downregulate the MDR1 promoter region; suppress the mRNA expression of Bcl-2; induce the mRNA expression of Bax; and significantly increase the Bax-to-Bcl-2 ratio and the mRNA levels of p53, caspase-9 and -3. A combination of anticancer drugs with Glycocholic acid can control MDR via a mechanism that involves modulating P-gp and MRPs as well as regulating apoptosis-related pathways.

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.
