Ro 48-8071 fumarate

Cat.No.E8319

Ro 48-8071 fumarate is a potent, selective inhibitor of 2,3-oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC) (IC50 = 6.5 nM), a key enzyme downstream of HMG-CoA reductase that catalyses lanosterol formation in cholesterol biosynthesis. It reduces intracellular cholesterol levels without the feedback upregulation of HMG-CoA reductase seen with statins, providing a distinct, self-limiting regulatory loop for lowering LDL-C. Additionally, it also exhibits significant anti-cancer properties by inducing apoptosis and disrupting cell signalling in cancer models.

Calculation results:

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 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.
