Biological Activity

Description Propyl gallate (Gallic acid propyl esterZ, n-Propyl gallate) is an antioxidant used in foods especially animal fats and vegetable oils, also in a wide variety of cosmetics and beauty care products.
In vitro Propyl gallate (PG) could modulate heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) activation and decrease lung cancer cell survival. Propyl gallate also induces apoptosis in human leukemia cells and HeLa cells by increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and glutathione (GSH) depletion. Propyl gallate inhibits the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and exerts an antimigration effect on TMZ-treated U87MG cells. Propyl gallate also possesses anti-inflammatory activity via downregulation of the NF-κB pathway. Propyl gallate could reduce the proliferation and augment the chemosensitivity of a THP-1 leukemia cell line via extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways[1].
In vivo In brain ischemia, Propyl gallate inhibits the activity of NF-κB, reduces COX-2 and TNF-alpha G expression, and decreases ischemic-reperfusion injury[1].

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:[1]
  • Cell lines

    U87MG glioma cells

  • Concentrations

    50 or 100 μM

  • Incubation Time

    48 h

  • Method

    U87MG cells (1 × 104) are seeded in each well of a 96-well cultured plate for 24 h and then treated with TMZ (200 μM), PG (50 or 100 μM), or their combination for 48 h. After treatment, cell viability is determined by an XTT-based assay.
