Description

Albiflorin, a major constituent contained in peony root, is a monoterpene glycoside with neuroprotective effects. Albiflorin also has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antinociceptive effects[1][2].

In Vitro

Albiflorin (50-200 μM; pretreated for 3 hours; PC12 cells) treatment significantly ameliorates glutamate (Glu)-induced reduction of cell viability[1].
Albiflorin (100 μM; pretreated for 3 hours; PC12 cells) treatment significantly ameliorates Glu-induced reduction of nuclear and mitochondrial apoptotic alteration, reactive oxygen species accumulation, and B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2)/Bax ratio[1].
Albiflorin (100 μM; pretreated for 3 hours; PC12 cells) treatment enhances phosphorylation of AKT and its downstream element GSK-3β[1].

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: PC12 cells
Concentration: 50 μM, 100 μM, 200 μM
Incubation Time: Pretreated for 3 hours
Result: Significantly ameliorated Glu-induced reduction of cell viability.

Apoptosis Analysis[1]

Cell Line: PC12 cells
Concentration: 100 μM
Incubation Time: Pretreated for 3 hours
Result: Significantly ameliorated Glu-induced reduction of nuclear and mitochondrial apoptotic alteration.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: PC12 cells
Concentration: 100 μM
Incubation Time: Pretreated for 3 hours
Result: Enhanced phosphorylation of AKT and its downstream element GSK-3β.
In Vivo

Albiflorin (50 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once a day; for 15 days; Wistar rats) treatment significantly increases the paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) on the 11th and 15th day after surgery in rats. Albiflorin could inhibit the activation of p38 MAPK pathway in spinal microglia and subsequent upregulated IL-1β and TNF-α. Albiflorin displays remarkable effects on inhibiting the activation of astrocytes, suppressing the overelevated expression of phosphorylation of c-JNK (p-JNK) in astrocytes, and decreasing the content of chemokine CXCL1 in the spinal cord[2].

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 (5.20 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    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 (5.20 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    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.

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.
