Description

Disodium terephthalate (Terephthalic acid disodium salt) is an isomer and a precursor of polyester PET, which can be used to make clothing and plastics. Disodium terephthalate can be used to build skin tumor models[1].

In Vitro

Disodium Terephthalate is a biochemical reagent that can be used as a biological material or organic compound for life science related research.

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Note:
Please do not refer to only one article to determine the experimental conditions. It is recommended to determine the optimal experimental conditions (animal strain, age, dosage, frequency and cycle, detection time and indicators, etc.) through preliminary experiments before the formal experiment
.

Terephthalic acid can be used in animal modeling to create skin tumor models. In experiments, Terephthalic acid is administered orally to weanling and adult mice, exhibiting distinct pharmacokinetic features. Terephthalic acid is metabolized in the body to form calcium terephthalate or calcium hydrogen terephthalate, leading to oversaturation in the urine and promoting the formation of bladder stones. The lithogenic effect of Terephthalic acid is more pronounced in weanling mice than in adults, and its effect on bladder stone formation is more significant at higher doses (1000 mg/kg/day), with no noticeable effects observed at a dose of 142 mg/kg/day. The safe dosage range for Terephthalic acid in terms of inducing lithogenesis is: oral administration not exceeding 0.5 mg/kg/day, and a total concentration in drinking water not exceeding 3 mg/L.

Induction of skin tumor[2]
Background
Terephthalic acid can promote excessive cell proliferation and induce skin tumor formation by disrupting the p16-cyclin D1/Cdk4-Rb cell cycle regulatory pathway[3].
Specific Modeling Methods
Mice: C57BL/6• male and female • 8-10 weeks old
Administration: 10 μg/mouse • topical application • refer to the note for details on the administration method
Note
(1) The K14CreER-Cenp-50/Ufl/fl mice used in the experiment are for conditional knockout of Cenp-50/U and are on a C57BL/6 background.
(2) DMBA and Terephthalic acid combined administration: Shave the backs of 8-10 week old mice, first apply DMBA (HY-W011845) (25 μg per mouse, dissolved in 200 μL of acetone) to the shaved dorsal skin, then apply Terephthalic acid (10 μg per mouse, dissolved in 200 μL of acetone) on the 3rd day after the first DMBA treatment.
(3) After 4 rounds of the above DMBA and Terephthalic acid combined treatment, mice receive Terephthalic acid (10 μg per mouse, dissolved in 200 μL of acetone) alone twice weekly for 20 weeks.
Modeling Indicators
Phenotypic Observations: Skin tumors in mice, including papillomas and carcinomas.

Help & FAQs
  • 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.
