Biological Activity

Description Eflornithine (DFMO) hydrochloride hydrate inhibits polyamine biosynthesis by the selective, irreversible inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC). A chemoprotective agent that blocks angiogenesis. Its biological half-life is 8 hours.
Targets
Orn decarboxylase [2]
In vitro
In vitro

When cultured cells are treated with α-difluoromethyl-Orn, an inhibitor of polyamine biosynthesis, production of hydrogen peroxide is suppressed and programmed cell death did not occur[1].
Cell Research Cell lines BY2 cell
Concentrations 2 mM
Incubation Time 48 h
Method

BY2 cells are treated with or without cryptogein in the presence or absence of DFMO(Difluoromethylornithine) and monitered the effect of chemicals on cell growth.

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.
