General description
Poloxamer 188 is a non-ionic amphiphilic copolymer, which has a central chain of hydrophobic polyoxypropylene and a hydrophilic polyoxyethylene at the ends.
Application
Poloxamer 188 has been used as a component of cell-dissociation/minimal essential media (MEM) to sort tumor cells using EpCAM antibody-conjugated magnetic beads.
Poloxamer 188 has been used as a supplement in F17 medium for the culture of HEK293-6E cells. It has also been used as a component of flow cytometry (FACS) buffer as a non-ionic detergent that protects cells from hydrodynamic damage.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Poloxamer 188 exhibits cytoprotective, hemorheological, anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic activities. It maintains the stability of membrane barrier function. P188 lowers surface tension and hydrophobic-based cellular adherence. It also inhibits lipid peroxidation stimulated by Fe2+ and H2O2.

Unlike other malignancies, therapeutic options in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are largely limited to cytotoxic chemotherapy without the benefit of molecular markers predicting response. Here we report tumor-cell-intrinsic chromatin accessibility patterns of treatment-naïve surgically resected PDAC tumors that were subsequently

Poloxamer 188 (P188) is a non-ionic amphiphilic copolymer with hemorheologic, antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective properties. It potentially has clinical utility in diverse diseases, such as acute myocardial infarction, acute limb ischemia, shock, acute stroke, heart failure, and sickle cell crisis.

Anesthetic failure is common in dental inflammation processes, even when modern agents, such as articaine, are used. Nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) are systems with the potential to improve anesthetic efficacy, in which active excipients can provide desirable properties, such as
