This compound is insoluble directly in aqueous buffers or medium. The product is tested for solubility in DMSO at a minimum of 2 mg/mL. Other sources indicate that the material may be soluble at a range of 14 – 18 mg/mL in DMSO and up to 50 mg/mL in DMSO with sonication. The stability of this product in solution has not been investigated. However, additional sources indicate stock solutions prepared in DMSO may be stored in aliquots at -20 °C for 1 – 3 months, when protected from light. Working solutions diluted with aqueous buffer or medium are not recommended for storage and should be prepared fresh. This information has not been validated.

Application
Verteporfin has been used as a photosensitizer. It is also used as an inhibitor of YAP (Yes-associated protein)-TEA domain (TEAD) interaction.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Verteporfin is a photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy to eliminate the abnormal blood vessels in the eye associated with conditions such as macular degeneration. Verteporfin accumulates in abnormal blood vessels and, when stimulated by nonthermal red light with a wavelength of 693 nm in the presence of oxygen, produces highly reactive short-lived singlet oxygen and other reactive oxygen radicals, resulting in local damage to the endothelium and blockage of the vessels. Verteporfin localizes predominantly in mitochondria.
Verteporfin is a photosensitizer for photodynamic therapy.
Verteporfin has an ability to disrupt the interaction between YAP (Yes-associated protein)/TAZ (transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif) and TEA domain (TEAD) complex. It also reduces the viability of the ovarian cancer cells and almost eliminates cell migration. Therefore, verteporfin might be considered as a potent therapeutic for ovarian cancer.
