Biological Activity

Description

Baicalein is a CYP2C9 and prolyl endopeptidase inhibitor.

Targets

CYP2C9 ^[1]

In vitro

Baicalein robustly inhibits stress-induced hypertrophy, by attenuating p38 signaling and PKD phosphorylation at serine 744/748 (S744/748), and downregulating signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3).^[2]

In vivo

Baicalein exhibits a protective effect against LPS/D-gal-induced acute liver injury via suppressing NLRP3-mediated pro-inflammatory cytokines production.^[3]

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:^{^[2]}	Cell lines Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) Concentrations 10 μM Incubation Time 48 h Method Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVMs) are stimulated to hypertrophy with phenylephrine (PE;10 M) in the absence or presence of vehicle control (Veh) or phytochemicals (apigenin (Api), baicalein (Bac), berberine hydrochloride (BHCl), emodin (Emod); All compounds are used at 10 μM) for 48 h. RNA is isolated and qPCR performed to analyze the natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP), interleukins (IL-6, IL-1α, and IL-1β, CXC chemokine ligands (CXCL2 and CXCL6) and CC Chemokine ligands (CCL3 and CCL6).
