| Targets |
D-Erythrose is an anti-cancer agent. In vitro, approximately 4 mM erythrose effectively kills cancer cells for tested cell lines, such as lung, brain, breast, and colorectal cancers. It inhibits tumor growth in mice in vivo. D-Erythrose reduces D-erythrose to erythritol, which inhibits polymerase chain reactions by blocking transcription and replication of DNA.

D-erythrose has been studied in animal models of cancer, including an abdominal metastatic model of colon carcinoma. The compound is administered, and its effects on tumor growth and survival are assessed.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
D-Erythrose has a molecular weight of 120.10 and a molecular formula of C4H8O4. It is typically supplied as a syrup, ca 70% w/v. It is soluble in water. For storage, it should be kept at -20°C.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicological profile of D-erythrose has not been extensively characterized. As a natural sugar, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. However, as with any research compound, appropriate safety precautions should be taken when handling it.
|
| Additional Infomation |
D-erythrose is the D-enantiomer of erythrose, a plant metabolite, and also the enantiomer of L-erythrose. Erythrose is found in or produced by Escherichia coli (strains K12 and MG1655). D-erythrose has been reported in brown algae (Roccella fuciformis), Arabidopsis thaliana, and other organisms with relevant data.
D-Erythrose (D-(-)-Erythrose) is a four-carbon aldose sugar that is an important intermediate in various metabolic pathways. It has anti-cancer activity and inhibits tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. It is a valuable research tool for studying cancer, metabolism, and glycation reactions. |

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).

*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.
