Cat. No.: HY-N0662 Purity: 99.72%
COA Handling Instructions

Amentoflavone (Didemethyl-ginkgetin) is a potent and orally active GABA(A) negative modulator. Amentoflavone also shows anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, anti-viral, anti-tumor, anti-radiation, anti-fungal, antibacterial activity. Amentoflavone induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at sub-G1 phase.

Description

Amentoflavone (Didemethyl-ginkgetin) is a potent and orally active GABA(A) negative modulator. Amentoflavone also shows anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, anti-viral, anti-tumor, anti-radiation, anti-fungal, antibacterial activity. Amentoflavone induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at sub-G1 phase[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Amentoflavone (1-60 µM) inhibits the production of nitric oxide in a concentration-dependent manner in RAW 264.7 cells[2].
Amentoflavone (50-200 µM) inhibits the viability of U-87 MG cells with IC50 value of 100 µM at 48 h[3].
Amentoflavone (0, 50, 100 µM; 48 h) induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at sub-G1 phase[3].
Amentoflavone (0, 50, 100 µM; 48 h) inhibits NF-ĸB activation and decreases the expression of MCL1 and C-FLIP protein in U-87 MG cells[3].
Amentoflavone (0-32 µg/ml) shows antibacterial activity with MICs of 8, 4, 32, 8, 16, 8 µg/ml for E. faecium ATCC 19434, S. aureus ATCC 25923, S. mutans ATCC 3065, E. coli O-157 ATCC 25922, E. coli ATCC 43895, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853, respectively[4].

Cell Viability Assay[3]

Cell Line: U-87 MG cells
Concentration: 0, 50, 75, 100, 200 µM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Significantly inhibited the viability of U-87 MG cells by 23-71% with an IC50 value of 100 µM at 48 h.

Apoptosis Analysis[3]

Cell Line: U-87 MG cells
Concentration: 0, 50, 100 µM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Significantly induced the accumulation of cells in the sub-G1 population and increased the level of active caspase-3 by 14-52% and 24-42%, respectively, and significantly triggered the loss of Ψm and the expression of active caspase-8 by 23-53% and 25-50%, respectively.

Western Blot Analysis[3]

Cell Line: U-87 MG cells
Concentration: 0, 50, 100 µM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Significantly reduced NF-ĸB activation in a dose-dependent manner by 25-87% and reduced protein expression of MCL1 and C-FLIP by 50-80% and 38-57%, respectively.
In Vivo

Amentoflavone (25 mg/kg; p.o.; once a day for 3 consecutive days) shows neuroprotective role in epilepsy via anti-inflammatory effects in mouse[1].

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

Animal Model: 5-6 weeks, 28-32 g, kunming mice[1]
Dosage: 25 mg/kg
Administration: P.o.; once a day for 3 consecutive days
Result: Inhibited activation and nuclear translocation of NF-κB subunits p65, decreased IL-6 and IL-1β production and significantly decreased NO and prostaglandin E2 production.

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.
