Avasimibe (CI-1011; PD 148515; CI1011; CI 1011; PD148515; PD-148515) is a novel, potent and orally bioavailable inhibitor of acyl-Coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) with the potential for the treatment of atherosclerosis and hyperlipidaemia. It inhibits ACAT1/2 with IC50s of 24 and 9.2 µM, respectively. It also inhibits human P450 isoenzymes CYP2C9, CYP1A2 and CYP2C19 with IC50 of 2.9 μM, 13.9 μM and 26.5 μM, respectively.
ln Vitro |
Prostate cancer (PCa) cells proliferate less when avasimibe (0, 0.25, 5, 10, 20, 40, and 80 μM; 1, 2 and 3 days) is administered [2]. The expression of β-catenin, Vimentin, N-cadherin, Snail, and MMP9—all of which are closely linked to the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)—is reduced by avasimibe (10 and 20 μM; 48 hours) [2]. In prostate cancer, avasimibe (10 and 20 μM) induces cell cycle arrest via the E2F-1 signaling pathway. In PCa cells, avasimibe causes a G1 phase cell cycle arrest [2]. PCa cell metastasis is inhibited by avasimibe (10 and 20 μM) [2].

ln Vivo |
For seven weeks, avasimibe (30 mg/kg intraperitoneally every other day) suppresses the development and metastasis of PCa cells in vivo. Avasimibe is minimal in toxicity and has good biocompatibility [2].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 7.5 mg/mL (14.95 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 75.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: 7.5 mg/mL (14.95 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 75.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More
Solubility in Formulation 3: 7.5 mg/mL (14.95 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with ultrasonication. Solubility in Formulation 4: 2% DMSO+corn oil: 5mg/mL |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution 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 stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(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.
