Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
Methoxsalen (NCI-C55903) is a Photoactivated Radical Generator and Psoralen. The mechanism of action of methoxsalen is as a Photoabsorption. The physiologic effect of methoxsalen is by means of Photosensitizing Activity.
In vitro
Methoxsalen inhibits CYP2A6 (Ki = 0.8 μM) with about 3.5- 94-fold greater potency than other P450s, except for CYP1A2 (Ki = 0.2 μM). Methoxsalen shows noncompetitive inhibition of nicotine metabolism, with an apparent Ki value of 0.1 μM in cDNA-expressing microsomes. [1] Methoxsalen is metabolized in human liver microsomes at the rate of 50-100 pmol/mg protein/min (approx. 30% of the activity in mouse liver microsomes). Methoxsalen is a very potent inhibitor of human cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) and mouse Cyp2a-5-mediated coumarin 7-hydroxylation in vitro. [2]
In vivo
Methoxsalen results in a significant decrease in the following factors: number and diameter of corpus lutei, Graafian follicles, diameter of granulosa cell layer and oocytes, number of primordial and primary and growing follicles, while the number of atretic follicle is increased. Methoxsalen also significantly reduces circulating estrogen levels in blood serum of oogenesis Balb/C mice. [3] Methoxsalen dose-dependently stimulates a sustained increase in short-circuit current in the mouse jejunum. Methoxsalen increases the open probability of the basolateral IK(Ca) channel of isolated crypts in the mouse jejunum. [4] Methoxsalen effectively reverses trimethyltin (TMT)-induced memory impairment on both Y-maze and passive avoidance tests in mice. Methoxsalen inhibits brain AchE activity. Methoxsalen significantly ameliorates the level of oxidative stress. [5]

In Vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution)

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the mother liquor preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:
TargetMol | Animal experimentsFor example, your dosage is 10 mg/kg Each animal weighs 20 g, and the dosage volume is 100 μL . TargetMol | Animal experiments A total of 10 animals were administered, and the formula you used is 5% TargetMol | reagent DMSO+30% PEG300+5% Tween 80+60% ddH2O. So your working solution concentration is 2 mg/mL。
Mother liquor preparation method: 2 mg of drug dissolved in 50 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent (mother liquor concentration of 40 mg/mL), if you need to configure a concentration that exceeds the solubility of the product, please contact us first.
Preparation method for in vivo formula: Take 50 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent main solution, add 300 μLPEG300TargetMol | reagent mix well and clarify, then add 50 more μL Tween 80, mix well and clarify, then add 600 more μLddH2OTargetMol | reagent mix well and clarify
