ln Vitro |
Overexpression of CYPOR in SiHa and HCT116 cell lines resulted in a 2- to 4-fold increase in EF-5 binding, decreased metabolism of tirapazamine and CEN-209, and increased production of γH2AX. In 14 hypoxic tumor cell lines, reduced EF-5 binding and prodrug metabolism are significantly linked [1].

ln Vivo |
A potential stratification biomarker for benzotriazine-N-oxide bioreducible prodrugs is EF-5 binding. There is a strong correlation between CEN209-induced DNA damage at the individual tumor level and CYPOR overexpression, which also significantly increased EF-5 binding and decreased CEN-209 in HCT116 xenografts. Additionally, altering tumor hypoxia led to similar changes in bioreductive activation of both drugs, resulting in EF-5 binding. After intravenous injection of EF-5, monoclonal antibodies specifically bind to and identify 9L gliomas; this process is oxygen-dependent. On frozen tissue, binding can be identified by fluorescence microscopy. For light microscopic examination, tissue sections can be counterstained with hematoxylin and eosin. As an alternative, flow cytometry methods can be used to analyze individual tumor cells in order to infer the distribution of hypoxia inside tumors [2].

Additional Infomation |
EF5 is a fluorinated derivative of the 2-nitroimidazole etanidazole. EF5 is effective in accessing oxygen levels in tumor tissue through its adduct formation to intracellular macromolecules in the absence of oxygen. Reduction of this agent is carried out by a diverse group of enzymes in the cytoplasm, microsomes and mitochondria. Tissue hypoxia detection via EF5 has been reported in several cancers, including squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix and the head and neck, and in sarcoma.

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.88 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 20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.88 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.

Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation::Take μL DMSO stock solution, next add μL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O,mix and clarify.
(1) Please be sure that the solution is clear before the addition of next solvent. Dissolution methods like vortex, ultrasound or warming and heat may be used to aid dissolving.
(2) Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order.
