Description

Hydrocortisone acetate (Hydrocortisone 21-acetate) is a corticosteroid used to reduce swelling, itching and pain caused by minor skin irritations or hemorrhoids[1].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vivo

Hydrocortisone acetate (25 mg/kg, s.c., on the 10th, 11th and 12th days of pregnancy) causes the limb buds of 14-day-old embryos dilatation of the venous marginal sinuses (14·4%), extensive distal mesoblast necrosis (7·9%), distal haemorrhages (10·7%), and frequent necrotic centres in the limb skeleton blastemas[1].
Hydrocortisone acetate (0.25-5 mg in 0.1 mL, s.c.) reduces concentration of all subclasses of IgG, IgA, and IgM in mice[2].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.18 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
