In cancer cells, CUR5g (0–40 μM, 0–24 h) specifically causes autophagosome accumulation [1]. The levels of sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) and LC3B-II are upregulated by CUR5g (0-40 μM, 0-24 hours) [1]. A549 cell migration and proliferation are inhibited by CUR5g (0–40 μM, 24 h), but neither necrosis nor apoptosis are brought on [1]. CUR5g Cell Autophagy Assay[1] Cell Line: A549 cells Concentration: 0, 1, 5, 10, 20, and 40 μM Incubation Time: 3, 6, 12, and 24 h Outcome: Decreased diffuse cytosolic staining of GFP-LC3B signal to a punctate pattern encircling autophagosomes. Induced widespread cytoplasmic vacuolization.

ln Vivo |
In vivo autophagic flux is inhibited by CUR5g (40 mg/kg, tail vein injection, once every two days for 15 days) and cisplatin (HY-17394) (1 mg/kg), which work in concert to combat cancer [1].

Western Blot Analysis[1]
Cell Types: A549 cells Tested Concentrations: 0, 1, 5, 10, 20, and 40 μM Incubation Duration: 0, 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h Experimental Results: Up-regulated LC3B-II and sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1) levels time- and dose-dependently. This increase was not the result of enhanced transcription, as mRNA expression of SQSTM1 and LC3B were not increased within CUR5g-exposed cells, suggesting that CUR5g might block autophagic flux rather than increase autophagosome formation. Cell Proliferation Assay[1] Cell Types: A549 cells Tested Concentrations: 0, 1, 5, 10, 20, and 40 μM Incubation Duration: 24 h Experimental Results: demonstrated great toxicity to A549 cells at 20 μM. Slightly diminished A549 cell number at 10 μM, while diminished the number of A549 cells Dramatically at 20 μM. demonstrated no discernable activity in healthy human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) viability at 40 µM. |
Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: BALB/c nude mice (4weeks old, A549 cells were subcutaneously (sc) injected into the right scapula of each nude mouse)[1]
Doses: 40 mg/kg, CUR5g (40 mg/kg) and Cisplatin (1 mg/kg) Route of Administration: Injected via caudal vein, once every 2 days for up to 15 days Experimental Results: Retarded the growth of xenografted tumors, whereas the combination treatment with Cisplatin almost completely inhibited tumor growth. Promoted the cisplatin sensitivity of A549 cells by inhibiting autophagic flux. |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.26 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 45% Saline (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 25.0 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.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*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.
