Product Description
Dehydropachymic acid is one of the major triterpenoids extracted from Poria cocos. Dehydropachymic acid is more effective in cells with impaired autophagy-lysosomal pathway (ALP) than in normal cells.
Dehydropachymic acid (CAS# 77012-31-8) is a triterpenoid natural product isolated from Poria cocos. It has a molecular weight of 526.76 and a molecular formula of C33H50O5. This compound exhibits anti-inflammatory activity and is more effective in autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP) impaired cells than in normal cells.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Dehydropachymic acid targets the autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP). It is more effective in cells with impaired ALP than in normal cells. It also exhibits moderate cytotoxicities against cancer cells. Its anti-inflammatory activity suggests it may modulate inflammatory signaling pathways.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Dehydropachymic acid exhibits moderate cytotoxicities, with IC50 values of 20.5 μM against a human colon carcinoma cell line. It is more effective in autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP) impaired cells than in normal cells. It has anti-inflammatory activity.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity data for Dehydropachymic acid are limited. Its anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic activities suggest potential in vivo efficacy in models of inflammation and cancer. Its ability to modulate the autophagy-lysosome pathway may be relevant to neurodegenerative diseases where ALP is impaired. Further in vivo studies are needed.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro assays for Dehydropachymic acid are conducted to evaluate its cytotoxicity and effects on the autophagy-lysosome pathway. Cytotoxicity is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays in cancer cell lines. Autophagy-lysosome pathway activity is evaluated by measuring autophagic flux using LC3-II levels, p62 degradation, and lysosomal staining in normal and ALP-impaired cells.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Dehydropachymic acid are performed using human colon carcinoma cell lines and other cancer cells. Cells are treated with compound concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 µM for 24-72 hours. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays. Autophagy markers (LC3-II, p62) are analyzed by Western blotting. Lysosomal function is assessed using lysosomal probes.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Dehydropachymic acid would typically utilize tumor xenograft models or models of inflammation. The compound is administered orally or intraperitoneally. Endpoints include tumor growth, inflammatory markers, and histopathological evaluation.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Dehydropachymic acid are not well characterized. The compound has a molecular weight of 526.76 and a molecular formula of C33H50O5. As a lipophilic triterpenoid, it is expected to have good membrane permeability and oral absorption. Standard PK studies in rodents would be required.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Dehydropachymic acid are limited. As a natural product-derived compound, it may have a moderate safety profile. No significant acute toxicity has been reported. The compound is designated for research use only.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~12.5 mg/mL (~23.73 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 0.42 mg/mL (0.80 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 4.2 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: ≥ 0.42 mg/mL (0.80 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 4.2 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 0.3797 mL 1.8984 mL 3.7969 mL
10 mM 0.1898 mL 0.9492 mL 1.8984 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.

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
