Abacavir monosulfate is an orally bioavailable NRTI/nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor with antiviral activity. It can inhibit the replication of HIV. Abacavir monosulfate also exhibits anticancer activity and can trespass the blood-brain-barrier and suppresses telomerase activity.
ln Vitro |
In prostate cancer cell lines, abacavir (15 and 150 μM, 0-120 h) monosulfate suppresses cell proliferation, modifies the expression of LINE-1 mRNA, influences the progression of the cell cycle, and promotes senescence[1]. Abacavir monosulfate (15 and 150 μM, 18 h) dramatically decreases cell migration and prevents cell invasion[1]. Fat apoptosis is induced by abacavir monsulfate[4].

ln Vivo |
Abacavir (0.7–7.5 μg/mL, 100 μL, intrascrotal injection; 100 and 200 mg/kg, po; 4 h) increased the formation of thrombus in a dose-dependent manner[2]. In high-risk mice carrying medulloblastoma, abacavir (50 mg/kg/d; ip; 14 days) monosulfate combined with 0.1 mg/kg/d Decitabine improves survival[3].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] Oral Formulations
Oral Formulation 1: Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na (carboxymethylcellulose sodium) Oral Formulation 2: Suspend in 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Example: Take the Oral Formulation 1 (Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na) as an example, if 100 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can first prepare 0.5% CMC Na solution by measuring 0.5 g CMC Na and dissolve it in 100 mL ddH2O to obtain a clear solution; then add 250 mg of the product to 100 mL 0.5% CMC Na solution, to make the suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
