Other Product Data

Q-VD-OPh does not exhibit toxic effects at typical working concentrations: 10-20 μM for in vitro cell culture applications, 10-120 (up to 1000) mg/kg for in vivo animal studies. Q-VD-OPh is a small hydrophobic compound and requires DMSO for solubilization. Stock solutions as high as 200mg/ml have been prepared in DMSO. To retain solubility in water at concentrations above 1mg/ml, 80 % DMSO is suggested. For tissue culture studies 10mM or 20mM stock solutions are prepared in DMSO and diluted 1:1000 directly into the tissue culture medium. For in vivo studies Q-VD-OPh has been administered in 80% to 100% DMSO to assure solubility at the doses given.

For Negative Control see Prod. No. AG-CP3-0007.

Description
  • Cell permeable, irreversible and non-toxic non-FMK pan-caspase inhibitor with improved potency, stability and toxicity over Z-VAD-FMK. Does not cross-react with cathepsins nor calpains. Non-toxic due to the 2,6-difluorophenoxy methyl (OPh) group.
  • The peptide is not O-methylated to reduce hydrophobicity and to facilitate use in aqueous media.
  • Inhibits ICE-family protease/caspase processing, leading to apoptosis and autophagy induction.
  • Decreases proteasome activity.
  • Used in apoptosis and inflammasome studies.
