Solubility (25°C)* In vitro DMSO 75 mg/mL (200.87 mM)
Ethanol 9 mg/mL (24.1 mM)
Water Insoluble
In vivo (Add solvents to the product individually and in order)
Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
3.7mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of clarified DMSO stock solution of 74 mg/ml to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to clarify it; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Deferasirox is an iron chelator, also a cytochrome P450 3A4 inducer, Cytochrome P450 2C8 inhibitor, and Cytochrome P450 1A2 inhibitor. Deferasirox-induced iron depletion promotes BclxL downregulation and cell death.
In vitro

Deferasirox effectively chelates iron from Rhizopus oryzae and demonstrates cidal activity in vitro against 28 of 29 clinical isolates of Mucorales at concentrations well below clinically achievable serum levels. [1] Deferasirox incubation induces a significant inhibition of NF-κB activity and a cytoplasmic sequestration of its active subunit p65 in an inactive form in 28 of 40 peripheral blood samples. [2] Deferasirox inhibits three human myeloid cell lines (K562, U937, and HL60) with IC50 of 17-50 mM. [3] Deferasirox is cidal in vitro against A. fumigatus, with an MIC and MFC of 25 and 50 mg/L, respectively. [5]
In vivo

Deferasirox significantly improves survival and decreased tissue fungal burden in diabetic ketoacidotic or neutropenic mice with mucormycosis, with an efficacy similar to that of liposomal amphotericin B. Deferasirox treatment also enhances the host inflammatory response to mucormycosis. Deferasirox synergistically improves survival and reduces tissue fungal burden when combined with liposomal amphotericin B. [1] Deferasirox administered p.o. to rats is absorbed to at least 75%, and the bioavailability is 26%.Deferasirox is present in the blood circulation mainly in the unchanged form and as its iron complex, Fe(deferasirox)2, after intravenous and p.o. administration. Deferasirox is 99.2% bound to plasma proteins. [4] Deferasirox monotherapy modestly prolongs survival of mice with IPA. [5]
