Product Description
Dimethyl biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate (Biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate) is a hepatoprotective agent found in Schisandra chinensis and can induce IFN-related signal transduction.
Dimethyl biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate (CAS 792-74-5) is a planar biphenyldicarboxylic acid ester used as a hepatoprotectant in the treatment of chronic hepatitis. At 250 µg/ml, it has been shown to stimulate JAK/STAT signaling and to induce the expression of interferon-α stimulated genes in a HepG2 cell line.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
JAK/STAT signaling pathway (stimulates); interferon-α stimulated genes (induces expression).
ln Vitro
In vitro, Dimethyl biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate stimulates JAK/STAT signaling and induces the expression of interferon-α stimulated genes in a HepG2 cell line at 250 µg/ml. Quantitative IC50 values are not detailed in publicly available sources.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Dimethyl biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate is used as a hepatoprotectant in the treatment of chronic hepatitis. Detailed dose-response and pharmacokinetic data are limited in publicly available literature.
Enzyme Assay
No specific cell-free enzyme/receptor binding assay protocol is detailed for this compound. For hepatoprotective compounds, typical cell-free assays include enzyme inhibition studies or receptor binding assays.
Cell Assay
Cellular activity is assessed in HepG2 hepatoma cells. Cells are treated with Dimethyl biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate at 250 µg/ml, and endpoints include JAK/STAT signaling activation (Western blot for phosphorylated STAT proteins) and interferon-α stimulated gene expression (qPCR).
Animal Protocol
In vivo efficacy is evaluated in animal models of chronic hepatitis or liver injury. Dimethyl biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate is administered orally. Endpoints include serum liver enzyme levels (ALT, AST), histopathological examination of liver tissue, and survival.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Molecular weight: 270.28 g/mol; molecular formula: C16H14O4. CAS No.: 792-74-5. Purity: typically ≥98%. Appearance: solid. Solubility: soluble in organic solvents. Storage: typical for organic compounds (desiccated, protected from light).
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No detailed toxicity data is publicly available. As a hepatoprotectant used in chronic hepatitis, it is generally considered to have low toxicity, but standard toxicological studies would be required for drug development.
Additional Infomation
Nisel has been studied for its potential use in treating chronic liver disease.
Dimethyl biphenyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate is a research-grade compound and has been used as a hepatoprotectant in the treatment of chronic hepatitis. It is not FDA-approved in the US but may be used in some regions. Its mechanism involves JAK/STAT signaling stimulation and induction of interferon-α stimulated genes.

Note: Please be aware that the above formulations are for reference only. InvivoChem strongly recommends customers to read literature methods/protocols carefully before determining which formulation you should use for in vivo studies, as different compounds have different solubility properties and have to be formulated differently.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 3.6999 mL 18.4993 mL 36.9987 mL
5 mM 0.7400 mL 3.6999 mL 7.3997 mL
10 mM 0.3700 mL 1.8499 mL 3.6999 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
