Products are for research use only. Not for human use. We do not sell to patients.
Cas No.: 518-82-1
Sample solution is provided at 25 µL, 10mM.
Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines |
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) cells |
Preparation method |
The solubility of this compound in DMSO is > 10 mM. General tips for obtaining a higher concentration: Please warm the tube at 37 °C for 10 minutes and/or shake it in the ultrasonic bath for a while. Stock solution can be stored below - 20 °C for several months. |
Reacting condition |
0 ~ 80 μM; 48 hrs |
Applications |
In a series of EOC cells, Emodin inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Emodin at the dose of 20 μM abrogated the migration and invasion abilities of A2780 and SK-OV-3 cells transfected with pLVX-ILK. The results of western blotting analysis implied that Emodin inhibited the migration and invasion abilities of EOC cells by blocking epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) through targeting integrin-linked kinase (ILK). |
Animal experiment [1]: | |
Animal models |
Nude mice bearing SK-OV-3/pLVX-ILK cells |
Dosage form |
50 mg/kg/d; i.p.; for 21 days |
Applications |
In nude mice bearing SK-OV-3/pLVX-ILK cells, Emodin significantly inhibited tumor growth. Meanwhile, Emodin counteracted the effects of over-expression of ILK on EOC cells. The immunohistochemical results demonstrated that Emodin inhibited the EMT of tumor cells. In addition, Emodin exhibited mild cardiac, liver and renal toxicities in vivo. |
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |

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. |
