                  Description
                  OverviewMost commonly-used phorbol ester. Extremely potent mouse skin tumor promoter. Activates protein kinase C in vivo and in vitro, even at nM concentrations. Promotes the expression of inducible NOS in cultured hepatocytes. Activates Ca2+-ATPase and potentiates forskolin-induced cAMP formation. Inhibits apoptosis induced by the Fas antigen, but induces apoptosis in HL-60 promyelocytic leukemia cells. Its binding is reversible. Also available as a 10 mM solution in DMSO (Cat. No. 500582).

With frequent use, the DMSO stock solutions may accumulate water. The presence of water in the stock solution will accelerate the decomposition of the product, resulting in significant loss of activity in 2-3 months.
