Biological Activity
| Targets | Toxoplasma |
| ln Vitro | MBP146-78 exhibits a dose-dependent inhibition of T. gondii tachyzoites replicating within HFF, with an IC50 of 210 nM. MBP146-78 has the ability to reverse the inhibition of lytic parasite growth. HFF cell monolayers are completely lysed when the medium containing MBP146-78 is substituted after up to seven days of treatment at a concentration of 2 μM. At concentrations of up to 10 μM, MBP146-78 neither inhibits nor is toxic to proliferating or confluent monolayers of HFFs[1]. |
| ln Vivo | Parasites are not visible in any of the tissues examined during the 10-day treatment period in mice that are infected and given MBP146-78 at a dose of 50 mg/kg twice daily. All survivors experience a brief period of asymptomatic parasite recrudescence, as evidenced by the presence of parasites in samples from the brain, spleen, and lung of infected treated mice, even after MBP146-78 administration has stopped. Following the cessation of MBP146-78 treatment, mice's ability to control Toxoplasma infection implies that chemotherapy and the mouse immune system work in concert to control the infection[1]. |
| Cell Assay | In order to evaluate the toxicity of MBP146-78 to HFFs, 1000 cells are plated in each well of 96-well plates, and the cells are left to adhere for the entire night before the compound is added. The cultures are kept in an incubator with 5% CO2 at 37°C for five days. The cell-proliferating assay in the Cell-Titer 96 Aqueous One solution is used to determine viability[1]. |
| Animal Protocol | Mice: In water, MBP146-78 dissolves. Intraperitoneal injections of 100 μL doses of MBP146-78 are given beginning 24 hours after parasite inoculation. Throughout the trial, mice are checked twice a day for signs of toxoplasmosis and mortality[1]. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) |
DMSO: ~7.7~12 mg/mL (~22.9~35.8 mM) Ethanol: ~12 mg/mL |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 0.77 mg/mL (2.30 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 7.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL 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: ≥ 0.77 mg/mL (2.30 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 7.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 0.77 mg/mL (2.30 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 7.7 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
