Product Introduction

Bioactivity

Description	FICZ (6-Formylindolo[3,2-b]carbazole) is a potent aryl agonist for the hydrocarbon receptor (AhR, Kd: 70 pM).
Targets&IC50	AhR:70 pM (Kd)
In vitro	FICZ (0.01 nM-1 μM) alone or in combination with 50 nM MNF induces sustained CYP1A1 activity and leads to oxidative stress and activation of apoptosis via a mitochondrial-dependent pathway. In HepG2 cells, FICZ stimulates cell growth at low concentrations but inhibits cell growth at high concentrations [1]. FICZ (10-30 μM) significantly decreases CEH viability with an estimated LC50 (95% confidence intervals) of 14 μM. FICZ shows concentration-dependent effects on EROD activity in CEH cultures, with the mean EC50 values at 3, 8, and 24 h of 0.016 nM, 0.80 nM, and 11 nM, respectively [2]. CYP1 inhibition in the presence of FICZ results in enhanced AHR activation, suggesting that FICZ accumulates in the cell when its metabolism is blocked. CYP1 enzymes play a role in regulating the biological effects of FICZ [3]. FICZ treatment increases transcript expression of CYP1A1 in a dose-dependent manner in both the parental iPSC line and the CYP1A1 targeted clone [4].
Cell Research	The cell viability of CEH treated with FICZ or TCDD is studied with the untreated cells (used as a live cell control) and sodium hypochlorite (5%)-treated cells (used as a dead cell control). This assay is based upon the bioluminescent measurement of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) that is present in all metabolically active cells. Luciferase is utilized in this method to catalyze the formation of light from ATP and luciferin. CEH is lysed 24 h after dosing and the luminescence emitted from the ATP-dependent oxidation of luciferin is measured with a LuminoSkan Ascent luminometer [2].

In Vivo Formulation Calculator (Clear solution)

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the stock solution preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:

For example, if the intended dosage is 10 mg/kg for animals weighing 20 g , with a dosing volume of 100 μL per animal, TargetMol | Animal experiments

and a total of 10 animals are to be administered, using a formulation of TargetMol | reagent

10% DMSO+ 40% PEG300+ 5% Tween 80+ 45% Saline/PBS/ddH₂O , the resulting working solution concentration would be 2 mg/mL.

Stock Solution Preparation:

Dissolve 2 mg of the compound in 100 μL DMSO TargetMol | reagent to obtain a stock solution at a concentration of 20 mg/mL . If the required concentration exceeds the compound's known solubility, please contact us for technical support before proceeding.

Preparation of the In Vivo Formulation:

1) Add 100 μL of the DMSO TargetMol | reagent stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix thoroughly until the solution becomes clear.

2) Add 50 μL Tween 80 and mix well until fully clarified.

3) Add 450 μL Saline,PBS or ddH₂O TargetMol | reagent and mix thoroughly until a homogeneous solution is obtained.
