Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | DUBs-IN-2 (compound 22 e) has an IC50 of 0.28 μM, making it a strong inhibitor of USP8, but USP7 remains unaffected at >100 μM. With an IC50 value of 0.5-1.5μM, DUBs-IN-2 decreases the viability of the PC-3 prostate cancer cell line and the HCT116 colon cell line[1]. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ~16.67 mg/mL (~60.56 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 1 mg/mL (3.63 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 10.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 + to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL of normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: 1.5 mg/mL (5.45 mM) in 50% PEG300 50% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
