| Targets |
Bacterial cell membrane (antibiotic target); autophagy pathway (autolysosome maturation). DCAP is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that targets the cell membrane of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It also blocks late-stage autophagy by preventing autolysosome maturation and interrupting autophagic flux. DCAP's dual mechanism of action makes it a unique tool for studying both antibacterial and autophagy-related processes.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
DCAP is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that targets the cell membrane of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It blocks late-stage autophagy by preventing autolysosome maturation and interrupting autophagic flux. Detailed in vitro activity data (MIC values, IC50) are not provided in the available literature.
|
| ln Vivo |
DCAP's in vivo activity has not been extensively reported. As an antibiotic, it may have potential for treating bacterial infections. Its autophagy-inhibiting activity may have implications for cancer research and other diseases where autophagy plays a role. Further studies are needed to characterize its in vivo efficacy.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro antibacterial susceptibility testing is performed using standard broth microdilution or agar dilution methods. Bacterial strains (Gram-positive and Gram-negative) are cultured in appropriate media and treated with varying concentrations of DCAP. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) are determined by measuring bacterial growth after overnight incubation.
|
| Cell Assay |
Mammalian cell lines are treated with DCAP at varying concentrations to assess its effects on autophagy. Autophagic flux is measured by Western blotting for LC3-II and p62 levels, or by using fluorescent reporters such as GFP-LC3. Autolysosome maturation is assessed by colocalization of LC3 and lysosomal markers. Cell viability is measured using standard assays.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Animal models of bacterial infection or autophagy-related diseases may be used to study DCAP's in vivo activity. However, detailed in vivo protocols are not available in the literature. Standard animal models of infection (e.g., murine sepsis or pneumonia models) could be used to assess antibacterial efficacy.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of DCAP have not been extensively characterized. It is a small-molecule compound with a molecular formula of C19H22Cl2N2O4. It typically exists as a solid at room temperature. Detailed PK data (Cmax, Tmax, AUC, t1/2) are not available in the literature.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for DCAP are not available. As a broad-spectrum antibiotic and autophagy inhibitor, its toxicity profile is unknown. Standard laboratory safety practices should be followed when handling the compound. It is not intended for human use.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
