ProtocolIn VitroNaproxen etemesil is a lipophilic, non-acidic, inactive prodrug of naproxen that is hydrolysed to pharmacologically active Naproxen once absorbed. Naproxen is a well known nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Naproxen is approximately equipotent inhibitor of COX-1 and COX-2 in intact cells with IC50s of 2.2 μg/mL and 1.3 μg/mL, respectively.
In VivoNaproxen exerts an anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic effect in mouse model of bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis. Naproxen also downregulates TGF-β levels and Smad3/4 complex formation.

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.
