Sample Use Guides

mice: 0.00001-10 mg/kg, i.p. rats: 15-20 mg/kg, i.p.
Route of Administration: Intraperitoneal
Low concentrations (100 nM) of 4'-Chlordiazepam (Ro5-4864) increased cell growth of BT-20 human, estrogen- (ER) and progesterone- (PR) receptor negative breast cancer cells, higher concentrations (10-100 microM) significantly inhibited cell proliferation.
