| 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 (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.) |

*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.
