Description of Tetrahydroxyquinone monohydrate

Tetrahydroxyquinone monohydrate (Tetrahydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone monohydrate), a primitive anticataract agent, is a redox active benzoquinone. Tetrahydroxyquinone monohydrate can take part in a redox cycle with semiquinone radicals, leading to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS)[1].

Tetrahydroxyquinone (100-500 μM; 24 hours; HL60 cells) treatment shows cytotoxic for HL60 leukaemia cells by total protein content (IC50 of 20 µM), phosphatase activity (IC50 of 40 µM), or by MTT assay (IC50 of 45 µM). Tetrahydroxyquinone is an efficient inducer of ROS production in HL60 leukaemia cells[1]. Tetrahydroxyquinone efficiently activates caspase 3 in concentration in excess of 25 µM, stimulates DNA fragmentation at the same concentration and provoke phosphatidylserine exposure[1]. Tetrahydroxyquinone induces the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria at concentration as low as 25 µM. Tetrahydroxyquinone treatment also causes increase of phosphorylation of Ser473 in protein kinase B (the Bad kinase for Ser112)[1].

Calculation results:

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.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
