Desmosterol

Desmosterol is the immediate unsaturated precursor of cholesterol and the final biosynthetic intermediate in the Bloch pathway and a key activator of liver X receptors(LXR) while inhibiting SREBP to regulate lipid homeostasis. Its reduction promotes mitochondrial ROS production in macrophages and activates the NLRP3 inflammasome exhibiting potential for research in inflammation, metabolism, and cardiovascular diseases.

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.
