Biological Activity

Description Xanthoxylin (Brevifolin), isolated from Zanthoxylum piperitum (Japanese pepper tree) and Sapium sebiferum (Chinese tallowtree), is a cytotoxic and fungicidal compound with the characteristics of a typical phytoalexin.
In vitro
In vitro Xanthoxylin (RCX) exhibits potent cytotoxicity in a panel of different cancer cells. It presents IC50 values of 1.6 and 26.0 μM for the HCT116 and ACP-03 cancer cell lines, respectively. Xanthoxylin causes apoptosis in a time- and concentration-dependent manner and induces mitochondrial depolarization in HepG2 cells. It induces DNA intercalation, inhibited DNA synthesis and triggered the caspase-mediated apoptosis pathway in HepG2 cells, as observed by cell shrinkage, internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, externalization of phosphatidylserine, loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potential and activation of caspase-3, -8 and -9[1]. Xanthoxylin increases melanin production, number of dendrites, tyrosinase, and microphthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) expression in cultured B16F10 cells[2].
Cell Research Cell lines HepG2 cells
Concentrations 12 and 24 μM
Incubation Time 12, 24, 48 or 72 h
Method The cell viability of HepG2 cells is determined by the trypan blue staining after 12, 24, 48 and 72 h of incubation.
In Vivo
In vivo Xanthoxylin presents a potent in vivo antitumor effect in C.B-17 SCID mice engrafted with HepG2 cells[1].
Animal Research Animal Models C.B-17 severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice engrafted with HepG2 cells
Dosages 2.5 and 5 mg/kg
Administration i.p.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
