Product Description
Corosolic acid (Colosolic acid) is a natural compound reported to have anti-tumor effects. Corosolic acid can cause apoptosis in cancer/tumor cells.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Corosolic acid has an ED50 of 0.4-5.0 μg/mL and is cytotoxic to Hep G2, A549, SNU-C4, HeLa, and K-562[1]. Corosolic acid (0-50 μg/mL) dose-dependently doubles corosolic acid (0-50 μM, 6-24 hours). Corosolic acid (0-50 μM, 6-24 hours) stimulates the sub-G1 cell population in CT-26 cells and multiplies its cell count [3]. In HCT116 and SW480 cells, crosolic acid (20 μM, 0-PKC activity [1]. 24 hours) suppresses HER2/HER3 heterodimerization and HER2 and HER3 phosphorylation [5].
ln Vivo
In the CT-26 allograft tumor model, corosolic acid (5, 25 mg/kg/day, peritumoral injection, 12 days) was demonstrated to impede tumor growth and have anti-angiogenic properties [3]. and 20 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, every two days) activates above the endoplasmic reticulum to suppress tumor growth in a mouse PC-3 xenograft model [4]. In high-fat fed rats, crosolic acid (10 mg/kg/d, dietary supplementation, 8 weeks) activates AMPK, inhibiting adipose tissue pathways and improving insulin resistance [6].
Cell Assay
Apoptosis analysis [3]
Cell Types: CT-26 Cell
Tested Concentrations: 25 µM
Incubation Duration: 12 and 24 h

Tested Concentrations: 20 μM
Incubation Duration: 0-24 h
Experimental Results: diminished NRG1-induced formation of HER2/HER3 heterodimers. Inhibits PI3K/Akt/PDE3B, but not the ERK1/2 signaling pathway.
Animal Protocol

Doses: 5, 25 mg/kg/day
Route of Administration: peritumoral injection, 12 days
Experimental Results: Tumor weight was diminished to 76.2% and 53.8% of the control group %. Blood and lymphatic vessels are less dense.

Animal/Disease Models: High-fat fed mice [6]
Doses: 10 mg/kg/day
Route of Administration: Added to diet, 8 weeks
Experimental Results: Inhibited hyperlipidemia, improved insulin sensitivity and glucose intolerance. Inhibits inflammation of adipose tissue. Inhibits macrophage infiltration into adipose tissue.

Shipping Condition

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~25 mg/mL (~52.89 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (5.82 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 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 27.5 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.29 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 25.0 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.)

5 mM 0.4231 mL 2.1155 mL 4.2310 mL
10 mM 0.2116 mL 1.0578 mL 2.1155 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
