| Targets |
4-Isothiocyanatophenyl α-D-Mannopyranoside is a mannose-based antigen delivery system that targets mannose-specific receptors and lectins, including the mannose receptor (CD206) on macrophages and dendritic cells. The isothiocyanate group enables covalent attachment to amine-containing macromolecules (e.g., proteins, dendrimers), creating neoglycoproteins and mannosylated carriers. These mannosylated constructs are used to deliver antigens to mannose receptor-expressing antigen-presenting cells for immunomodulation and vaccine development. The compound's mannose moiety is recognized by mannose-binding proteins.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro, 4-Isothiocyanatophenyl α-D-Mannopyranoside is used as a reagent for the preparation of neoglycoproteins and mannosylated dendrimers. The compound's isothiocyanate group reacts with primary amines on proteins or other macromolecules under mild conditions to form stable thiourea linkages. The resulting mannosylated conjugates are used in binding studies to probe mannose-specific receptors and lectins. The compound has also been found to inhibit the growth of cancer cells and reduce inflammation and oxidative stress in cellular assays. However, its primary use is as a synthetic building block.

| ln Vivo |
In vivo, 4-Isothiocyanatophenyl α-D-Mannopyranoside has been studied for its potential to modulate immune responses as part of mannosylated antigen delivery systems. Mannosylated conjugates prepared using this compound are used to target antigens to mannose receptor-expressing antigen-presenting cells, enhancing antigen uptake and presentation. This approach has potential applications in vaccine development and immunotherapy. However, the compound itself is not used as a therapeutic agent, and specific in vivo data for the compound alone are limited.

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 (6.64 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 20.8 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.
