HOW CAN I DETERMINE THE DOSE OF PERIFOSINE THAT I WILL ADMINISTER IN MICE MODEL/ CELL LINE TO INDUCE AKT-INHIBITION?

Asked by: BUKHARI
Thank you for your question. We have not tested Perifosine: sc-364571 in animals, so we do not have this information. Our compounds are not pharmaceutical grade and not manufactured under GMP guidelines. Please consult your principal investigator and your animal care and use committee (ACUC) regarding the use of our compounds in animals. We would also recommend you consult the primary literature to determine any previously reported dosing information for inducing Akt inhibition.
