Protoporphyrin IX disodium

😃Good
Catalog No. T200997Cas No. 50865-01-5

Protoporphyrin IX disodium, as a radiation sensitizer, enhances the production of ROS and induces DNA damage even under hypoxic conditions. It also acts as a photosensitizer, undergoing direct degradation through photobleaching upon light exposure. This compound accumulates in rat tumor cells following administration of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA). When activated with a peak wavelength of 405 nm, Protoporphyrin IX disodium selectively improves basal cell carcinoma. It shows promise in pharmacological research of sonodynamic and photodynamic therapy for cancers such as bladder cancer and nodular basal cell carcinoma.

Product Introduction

Bioactivity
Description
Protoporphyrin IX disodium, as a radiation sensitizer, enhances the production of ROS and induces DNA damage even under hypoxic conditions. It also acts as a photosensitizer, undergoing direct degradation through photobleaching upon light exposure. This compound accumulates in rat tumor cells following administration of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA). When activated with a peak wavelength of 405 nm, Protoporphyrin IX disodium selectively improves basal cell carcinoma. It shows promise in pharmacological research of sonodynamic and photodynamic therapy for cancers such as bladder cancer and nodular basal cell carcinoma.
In vitro
Protoporphyrin IX disodium, when administered at a dosage of 3.6 nmol/g to tissue, causes necrosis of the normal rat colonic mucosa upon exposure to light. At a concentration of 6.6 nmol/g in rat tumors, it delays tumor growth following irradiation. Additionally, a rapid increase in nuclear G4 levels in Hela cells is observed with Protoporphyrin IX disodium at concentrations ranging from 0 to 25 μM, when applied for 2 hours.
In vivo
Following a single intravenous injection of aminolevulinic acid at a dosage of 300 mg/kg, the highest concentrations of Protoporphyrin IX disodium were observed in the liver and intestines of rats, approximately 3 hours post-administration, reaching about 6.3 nmol/g of tissue. This was followed by the aorta, which showed a concentration of 4.3 nmol/g of tissue, and the esophagus, which had around 2.1 nmol/g of tissue.

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
For Reference Only. Please develop an appropriate dissolution method based on your laboratory animals and route of administration.
