Handling
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
Please note that sonication in a 55 °C water bath is necessary for dissolution of ab120843 in DMSO to 10 mM.
Refer to SDS for further information.

G9a inhibition induces autophagy and autophagic cell death through AMPK/mTOR pathway.
T24 cells (Panel G) and UMUC-3 cells (Panel H) were pre-treated with compound C (5 μM) or AICAR (1 mM) and then treated with BIX-01294 (1.5 μM) for 48 h, Cells viability was assessed by MTT assay. *P<0.01.
