    Description

    Ginkgolic Acid is a natural compound that inhibits SUMOylation with an IC50 of 3.0 μM in in vitro assay.

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 3.0 μM (SUMOylation)[1]

    In Vitro

    Ginkgolic acid inhibits the in vitro SUMOylation of RanGAP1-C2 with the IC50 values of 3.0 μM. The level of SUMOylated p53 is markedly reduced by the ginkgolic acid treatment. Importantly, ginkgolic acid does not affect protein ubiquitination in cells. Ginkgolic acid inhibits the binding between E1 and GA-BODIPY in a dose-dependent manner[1]. Ginkgolic acid (31.2 μg/mL) inhibits HIV protease activity by 60%, compared with the negative control, and the effect is concentration-dependent. Ginkgolic acid treatment (50 and 100 μg/mL) effectively inhibits HIV infection in human PBMC cells. Ginkgolic acid at the concentrations up to 150 μg/mL does not cause any significant cytotoxicity in Jurkat cells[2]. GA only inhibits the growth of tumorogenic cell lines in a both dose- and time-dependent manner. Tumor cells are treated with GA for 72 h, 70.53±4.54% Hep-2 and 63.5±7.2% Tca8113 cells are retarded at GO/G1 phase, and the percentage of apoptosis is 40.4±1.58 and 38.4±1.7%, respectively. GA-treated activated caspase-3 downregulates the expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 protein and upregulates the expression of pro-apoptotic Bax protein, eventually leading to a decrease in the Bcl-2/Bax ratio in tumor cellsin human PBMC cells. Ginkgolic acid at the concentrations up to 150 μg/mL does not cause any significant cytotoxicity in Jurkat cells[3].

    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: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (7.94 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (27.5 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% Corn Oil

      Solubility: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (7.94 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (27.5 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

    Cell Assay
    [2]

    Jurkat cells (106 cells/mL) are cultured in the RPMI medium with or without different concentrations of ginkgolic acid for 48 hours to test the cytotoxicity of ginkgolic acid. The cytotoxicity of ginkgolic acid is determined using a tetrazolium compound (MTS) and an electron coupling reagent (PMS). MTS is chemically reduced by cells into formazan, which is soluble in the tissue culture medium. The measurement of the absorbance of the formazan can be carried out using 96 well microplates at 492 nm. Since the production of formazan is proportional to the number of living cells, the intensity of the produced color is a good indication of the viability of the cells.

    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.
