    After mice were injured by 200 mg/kg APAP for 6 h, a single intravenous injection of 100 μL 20 mg/mL cPBA-BE in PBS or 5.1 mg/mL BE in 5% DMSO (equal to 20 mg/mL cPBA-BE) was administered. The expression levels of representative factors of inflammation and oxidative stress in the liver were measured. After 18 h of treatment, homogenates of the hepatic tissues were prepared, and the concentrations of GSH, H2O2, MDA, and MPO were separately measured.

    In Vitro

    Baicalein suppresses mitogen induced T cell proliferation and cytokine secretion in vitro. Pre-treatment with baicalein significantly suppresses Con A or anti-CD3/CD28 mAb induced proliferation as well as cytokine secretion at 25 μM. Baicalein treatment induces DNA binding of NF-κB but inhibits thioredoxin activity in the nuclear compartment[2]. Baicalein suppresses proliferation, migration, and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Baicalein significantly decreases the expression of SATB1 in MDA-MB-231 cells. Baicalein also downregulates the expression of Wnt1 and β-catenin proteins and transcription level of Wnt/β-catenin-targeted genes[3].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    In Vivo

    Baicalein suppresses induction of graft versus host disease but does not inhibit homeostatic proliferation of T-cells in mice. This observation clearly shows potent anti-inflammatory activity of baicalein in vivo[2]. Rats treated with baicalein are protected against an increase in heart to body weight ratio, plasma level of brain natriuretic peptides, intraventricular septum thickness, myocardial collagen volume of left ventricle (all P<0.05, respectively). The antifibrotic effects of baicalein are further illustrated by the suppressed expression of left ventricle pro-collagens I and III accompanied by the decreased expression of 12-lipoxygenase, and by reduced expression and activity of matrix metallopeptidase 9 and extracellular signal-regulated kinases. Baicalein can inhibit cardiac fibrosis in hypertensive rats[4].

    In Vivo:

    Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

    For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
    To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
    The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

    • Protocol 1

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

      Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (9.25 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic

      This protocol yields a clear solution of 2.5 mg/mL.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

      Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
    • Protocol 2

      Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

      Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (9.25 mM); Clear solution; Need ultrasonic

      This protocol yields a clear solution of 2.5 mg/mL.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

      Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

    For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
    The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

    • Protocol 1

      Add each solvent one by one:  0.5% CMC-Na/saline water

      Solubility: 20 mg/mL (74.01 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    The concentration of the stock solution you require exceeds the measured solubility. The following solution is for reference only. If necessary, please contact MedChemExpress (MCE).
    Method for preparing in vivo working solution for animal experiments: Take μL DMSO stock solution, add μL . μL , mix evenly, next add μL Tween 80, mix evenly, then add μL Saline.
     If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
    Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.

    Cell Assay
    [3]

    MTT assay is conducted to evaluate the effect of baicalein on proliferation of breast cancer cells. MDA-MB-231 cells are routinely digested, collected, and then seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 8×103 cells/well. After incubation for 12-24 hours, cells are treated with 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, and 120 μM baicalein according to their experimental grouping and then incubated at 37°C for 24, 48, and 72 hours[3].

    Animal Administration
    [2][4]

    Rats: Baicalein is suspended in 1% methylcellulose. Rats are treated with baicalein suspension via oral garvage. SHR and WKY rats are divided into 4 groups (n=8 per group): 12-week treatment with high-dose (200 mg/kg/day) or low-dose (50 mg/kg/day) group; and 4-week treatment with high-dose or low-dose group. The 12-week and 4-week negative control groups of SHR and WKY rats (n=8 per group) receive vehicle while positive control groups (Val group, n=8 per group) receive valsartan (20 mg/kg/day) for comparison[4].

    Mice: To study the in vivo anti-inflammatory efficacy of baicalein, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) model is used. Splenic lymphocytes from C57BL/6 mice are incubated with baicalein in vitro (25 μM, 4h) and adoptively transferred to immune-compromised Balb/c mice[2].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
