Product Description
COH-SR4 is an AMPK activator. COH-SR4 displays potent antiproliferation activity against leukemia, melanoma, breast cancer, and lung cancer. COH-SR4 inhibits adipocyte differentiation by activating AMPK and is expected to be used in research related to obesity and metabolic disorders.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
AMPK[1]
ln Vitro
In 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and cancer cells like HL-60, HeLa, and MCF-7, COH-SR4 (1–5 μM; 24 hours) causes a dose-dependent increase in the phosphorylation of AMPK and its substrate ACC[1]. Significant inhibition of 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation is observed in a dose-dependent manner with COH-SR4 (3-5 μM; 7 days)[1]. In a 24-hour period, COH-SR4 (1–5 μM) stimulates cell G1 cycle arrest[1]. Key transcription factors associated with adipogenesis and lipogenic proteins are downregulated when COH-SR4 is present, leading to a significant reduction in intracellular lipid accumulation[1].
ln Vivo
In obese mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD), COH-SR4 (5 mg/kg; ig; three times/week; for six weeks) decreases body weight and fat mass without changing food intake[2]. In HFD obese mice, COH-SR4 improves dyslipidemia and glycemic control[2]. In HFD obese mice, COH-SR4 reduces adipose tissue hypertrophy and modifies circulating adipokine levels[2]. In HFD obese mice, COH-SR4 prevents hepatic lipid accumulation and fatty liver[2].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : 125 mg/mL (357.11 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.08 mg/mL (5.94 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 20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (5.94 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 2.8569 mL 14.2845 mL 28.5690 mL
5 mM 0.5714 mL 2.8569 mL 5.7138 mL
10 mM 0.2857 mL 1.4284 mL 2.8569 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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
g/mol

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
  • Molecular mass (or molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed in the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
  • Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
