    Fasudil purchased from MedChemExpress. Usage Cited in: Biomed Rep. 2015 May;3(3):361-364.  [Abstract]

    RhoA and ROCK2 upregulation in the rat hippocampus is involved in memory dysfunction induced by postnatal exposure of Sevoflurane. The expression of RhoA, ROCK2 and cleaved caspase-3 (Cl-Csp3) in the hippocampus of the S3 group significantly increased, compared to that of the C group (P<0.05). There is no difference of the level of RhoA, ROCK2 and Cl-Csp3 between the C and S1 groups (P>0.05). ROCK2 inhibitor Fasudil hydrochloride in the F group clearly decreases the expression of ROCK2 and Cl-Cs

    In Vivo:

    Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

    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.

    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.
