Western blot analysis of MPC cells treated with DMH1. MPC cells are treated with DMH1 (3 μM or 5 μM) or with DMSO vehicle for 48 h. Proteins are then collected and probed for the expression of integrin β1, P-Smad1/5/8, P-S6 (1:500) and α-Tubulin is used as a loading control. Numbers below AKT and S6 represent the quantification of band intensities of P-AKT to AKT (OD P-AKT/ AKT) and P-S6 to S6 (OD PS6/S6) to determine the activity of the proteins.

DMH-1 (0.5 μM) induces regulation of OCT4, Nanog, and PAX6 protein expression. DMH-1 significantly reduces the percentage of cells expressing the pluripotency marker proteins OCT4 and Nanog in both SM3 and CA6 cells. PAX6 expression is significantly up-regulated by day 5 and day 7 in CA6 and SM3 cells, respectively. DMH-1 induces regulation of pluripotency and neural precursor marker mRNAs. PAX6 can regulate the expression of SOX1 independently by manipulating the DMH-1 concentration during the neural induction of hiPSCs[2]. DMH-1 (5 μM and 10 μM) inhibits CDDP-induced autophagy in HeLa cells and enhances the ability of CDDP to reduce HeLa cell viability, inhibits tamoxifen-induced autophagy in MCF-7 cells and enhances the ability of Tamoxifen (HY-13757A) to reduce MCF-7 cell viability, inhibits 5-FU-induced autophagy in both MCF-7 and HeLa cells but does not affect the inhibitory effects of 5-FU on MCF-7 and HeLa cell viability. DMH-1 enhances the apoptotic induction effects of CDDP on HeLa cells after 24 h treatment. DMH-1 inhibits HeLa and MCF-7 cell proliferation[3]. DMH-1 (20 μM) reduces the canonical phosphorylation of Smads 1,5 and 9. DMH-1 in combination with Cisplatin significantly decreases Ki-67 positive staining in the OVCAR8 cells. DMH-1 (20 μM) upregulates JAG1, reduces CYP1B1 and increases HAPLN1 expression in both OVCAR8 and NCI-RES cells[4].

*Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.
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.
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μLDMSO stock solution (10.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

Cell Assay
[3]
Cells are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with different drugs for appropriate time. Then 5 mg/mL MTT is added and incubated for 4 h at 37°C. Medium is then removed and 200 μL of DMSO is added to dissolve the crystal. Absorbance is measured at a wavelength of 490 nm with a plate reader.
MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Animal Administration
[5]
Sub-confluent A549 cells are trypsinized and then suspended in serum free RPMI 1640 medium. The cell suspension (1×106 cells in 100 µL medium for each injection) is injected subcutaneously into both the right and left flanks of eight-week old NOD SCID mice (n=5 for each group). Mice are given Intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of the vehicle (12.5% 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin) or 5 mg/kg DMH1 every other day. The tumor sizes are measured with a vernier caliper from the sixth day to the fourth week after tumor implantation. The tumor volume (V) is calculated according to the formulation: Volume=(width)2×length/2. The tumor tissues are dissected at the end of study, and are sectioned and stained with H & E, and for immunohistochemical analysis.

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.
