Product Description

Salinomycin sodium (also known as Procoxacin, AHR-3096) is a potent antibacterial and coccidiostat ionophore therapeutic agent with potential anticancer activities by targeting stem cells. Piyush Gupta has demonstrated in mice that salinomycin (Procoxacin) kills breast cancer stem cells at least 100 times more effectively than another well-known anti-cancer drug, paclitaxel. Salinomycin (Procoxacin) is thought to act as a potassium ionophore due to the discovery of Nigericin in the same compound screen, though the exact mechanism by which it kills cancer stem cells is still unknown. Salinomycin's clinical use may be constrained by its high level of toxicity and constrained therapeutic window.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Wnt/β-catenin
ln Vitro
Salinomycin sodium salt (2, 4 and 8 μM) and salinomycin sodium salt (0.1-8 μM; 48 h) decreased HUVEC growth by 32.1% and 59.2%, respectively. 48 h) of HUVEC exhibited a dose-dependent reduction in cell quantity and shape. Salinomycin (4 μM) reduced HUVEC migration and damaged their capillary-like tube formation. Salinomycin dramatically reduced the expression of phosphorylated (p)-FAK in HUVECs in a time and dose-dependent manner. Salinomycin suppresses HUVEC angiogenesis by disrupting the VEGF-VEGFR2-AKT signaling pathway [1]. RSVL and Salinomycin work synergistically to suppress TNBC (MDA-MB-231) cells. RSVL and salinomycin have been shown to efficiently decrease TNBC cells' wound healing, colony and tumor sphere forming abilities. The effective combination of RSVL and salinomycin generated cytokines by dramatically increasing Bax and lowering Bcl-2 expression in both culture conditions when compared to untreated and medication treatment alone [2]. Salinomycin (0, 2, 4, 8, and 16 μM) dramatically reduced motility in A2780 and SK-OV-3 cell lines in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The IC50 values for the A2780 cell line are 13.8 μM at 24 hours, 6.888 μM at 48 hours, and 4.382 μM at 72 hours. For the SK-OV-3 cell line, they are 12.7 μM at 24 hours, 9.869 μM at 48 hours, and 5.022 μM at 72 hours. Salinomycin prevents Wnt/β-catenin staining in EOC cells [3]. Salinomycin (2 μM) inhibits STAT3 phosphorylation, suppresses P38 and β-catenin production, and promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition in the rectal tract. Salinomycin (1-5 μM) reduces ischemia and STAT3 signaling in the rectal tract. In addition, salinomycin stimulates Akt (Ser 473) and monitors Hsp27 (Ser 82) phosphorylation in HT-29 and SW480. Salinomycin, in conjunction with telomerase reduction, folds hTERT and decreases telomerase activity [4].
ln Vivo
The mean tumor volume and tumor weight were considerably decreased by salinomycin (5 and 10 mg/kg). Salinomycin inhibits angiogenesis and involves itself in the dephosphorylation of AKT and FAK, which prevents the growth of U251 human neurotumor cells in vivo [1]. Swiss albino mice with tumors can sleep longer on average when given salinomycin (0.5 mg/kg) [2].

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 (3.23 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.

 (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.

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
