Amifostine (hydrate) (Synonyms: Ethyol, WR 2721) |
Catalog No.GC42785 |
Amifostine (hydrate) (WR2721 trihydrate) is a broad-spectrum cytoprotective agent and a radioprotector. Amifostine (hydrate) selectively protects normal tissues from damage caused by radiation and chemotherapy. Amifostine (hydrate) is potent hypoxia-inducible factor-α1 (HIF-α1) and p53 inducer. Amifostine (hydrate) protects cells from damage by scavenging oxygen-derived free radicals. Amifostine (hydrate) reduces renal toxicity and has antiangiogenic action.

Sample solution is provided at 25 µL, 10mM.
Amifostine is a prodrug that through dephosphorylation by alkaline phosphatase is converted to an active thiol, WR 1065 that has free radical scavenging, DNA protective, and hypoxia inducing activities. Because of the differential expression of alkaline phosphatase in normal versus neoplastic tissues, the cytoprotection conferred by amifostine is selective, enabling as much as 100-fold greater accumulation of WR 1065 in normal tissues than in tumor cells. Amifostine has been used to reduce toxicity in normal tissues exposed to radiation or chemotherapeutic agents. In mouse fibroblasts and various cancer cells, amifostine (IC50 = 4 mM) has been shown to activate p53 protein, to induce the expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21, and to arrest cells at the G1/S transition through a p53-dependent mechanism.

General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |

Working concentration: mg/ml;
Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.
Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.
Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
