Product Description

Troglitazone (formerly known as CI991) is a novel potent PPARγ agonist with anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activity. It has EC50 values of 550 nM and 780 nM for human and murine PPARγ receptor, respectively. Troglitazone is used in the cure of type II diabetes to reduce blood glucose levels and improve the sensitivity of an amount of tissues to insulin. Troglitazone significantly inhibits cell growth by cell cycle arrest and apoptotic cell death. Troglitazone also downregulates surface expression of CD97, a novel dedifferentiation marker, in FTC-133 cells and upregulated sodium iodide symporter (NIS) mRNA in TPC-1 and FTC-133 cells. Troglitazone also induces antiproliferation and redifferentiation in thyroid cancer cell lines. Activation of PPARγ mediated by troglitazone enhances human lung cancer cells to TRAIL-induced apoptosis via autophagy flux and also suggest that troglitazone may be a combination therapeutic target with TRAIL protein in TRAIL-resistant cancer cells.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Troglitazone is a PPARγ agonist; its EC50s for the human and murine PPARγ receptors are 550 nM and 780 nM, respectively[1]. With IC50s of 49.9 ± 1.2 and 51.3 ± 5.3 μM, respectively, troglitazone (2-200 μM) is cytotoxic to the pancreatic cancer cell lines (MIA Paca2 and PANC-1 cells). In MIA Paca2 and PANC-1 cells, troglitazone (50 μM) increases chromatin condensation, increases caspase-3 activity, and lowers Bcl-2 expression [2]. In human lung adenocarcinoma cells, troglitazone (0, 1, 2, and 4 μM) sensitizes TRAIL-mediated apoptosis. Autophagy inhibition prevents the enhancement of TRAIL-induced apoptosis by troglitazone. Additionally, PPARγ activation in A549 cells induces the effects of troglitazone[3].
ln Vivo
The MIA Paca2 xenograft model exhibits growth inhibition in response to troglitazone (200 mg/kg, po)[2].

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 88 mg/mL (199.3 mM)
Water:<1 mg/mL
Ethanol: 15 mg/mL (34 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.66 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.71 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.

*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.

  • 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
