Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | Paprotrain has been tested against a panel of CNS kinases. While inert against CDK5 and GSK3 (IC50 >10 μM), it has moderate action against DYRK1A (IC50=5.5 μM) [1]. Time-lapse microscopy revealed that pabroterin disrupted MKlp2 expression, resulting in polar body extrusion failure. This can be recovered by removing oocytes from pabrolin in fresh culture medium. According to cell cycle analysis, the majority of oocytes were arrested in metaphase I or telophase I. However, even after paprotrain suppresses MKlp2, the oocyte spindle structure and chromosomal organization remain intact [2]. The nuclear maturation of porcine oocytes treated with Paprotrain failed. After inhibiting KIF20A activity, the number of oocytes halted in the early MI stage rose in a dose-dependent manner, while the percentage of oocytes reaching the ATI and MII stages dropped [3]. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ≥ 100 mg/mL (~407.70 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.19 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 +5% Tween-80 + 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 25.0 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.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
