Application

Dexamethasone-Water Soluble has been used as a component of
  • Dulbecco′s modified Eagle medium based osteogenic and adipogenic medium for human mesenchymal stem cell culture
  • erythroid expansion media for the growth of liver, bone marrow and spleen tissues
  • medium 199 (M199) for hepatocyte culture

Biochem/physiol Actions

Dexamethasone is an anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid and a synthetic corticosteroid used for treating corneal inflammation. It inhibits the IL-1β-dependent angiogenesis. Dexamethasone elicits a range of effects on cell survival, cell signaling and gene expression. It favors apoptosis in chondrocytes and impairs development of bone. Dexamethasone is a potential therapeutic agent as it induces apoptosis in multiple myeloma (MM) cells. It elicits its functionality by lowering glucocorticoid receptor (GR) α levels and inhibits colon tumor progression.
