Product Description
SAG di-HCl is a potent Smoothened (Smo) receptor agonist (EC50=3 nM; Kd=59 nM). SAG di-HCl activates the Hedgehog signaling pathway and counteracts the inhibitory effect of Cyclopamine on Smo.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
EC50: 3 nM (Smo)[1]
ln Vitro
With an EC50 of 3 nM, SAG (0.1 nM-100 μM; 30 h) stimulates firefly luciferase expression in Shh-LIGHT2 cells, which is subsequently inhibited at higher concentrations[1]. When SAG (1-1000 nM; 1 h) competes with BODIPY-cyclopamine to bind to Smo-expressing Cos-1 cells, the SAG/Smo complex has an apparent dissociation constant (Kd) of 59 nM[1]. Robotnikinin-induced pathway activation by ShhN is inhibited by SAG (100 nM)[2]. In MDAMB231 cells, SAG (250 nM; 48 h) dramatically raises SMO mRNA and protein expression[3]. In MDAMB231 cells, SAG (250 nM; 24 and 48 hours) boosts the expression of CAXII mRNA at 24 hours under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions[3]. MDAMB231 cell migration is increased by SAG (250 nM; 24 h)[3].
ln Vivo
In CD-1 mice, SAG (1.0 mM) causes a notable rise in BV/TV at the eight-week timepoint and increased osteogenesis, primarily at the defect borders[4]. In mice, SAG (15–20 mg/kg; ip) dose-dependently causes pre-axial polydactyly to occur[5].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Pregnant C57BL/6J mice[5]
Doses: 15, 17, 20 mg/kg
Route of Administration: A single ip
Experimental Results: Effective in ca. 80% of the embryos and increased Gli1 and Gli2 mRNA expression in the limb bud, with Gli1 mRNA being the most upregulated at the dose of 20 mg/kg.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
H2O: 100 mg/mL (177.63 mM)
DMSO: 33.33 mg/mL (59.20 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.44 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 25.0 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.44 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 25.0 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.

Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.44 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 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.


Solubility in Formulation 4: 50 mg/mL (88.81 mM) in PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with ultrasonication.

*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
