Description
IC50 & Target
IC50: 19.2 μM (ONOO-)[1].
In Vitro
Betanin is a representative constituent of red beetroot betacyanins, could inhibit peroxynitrite (ONOO-), with an IC50 of 19.2 μM[1]. Betanin also has anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative effects, nephroprotective activity, cardioprotective activity, strong, antioxidant and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity[2]. Another study is also indicated the protective effect of Betanin against high glucose induced rat renal epithelial cell fibrosis and matrix accumulation, major features of diabetic nephropathy (DN)[2].

In Vivo
The co-administration of Betanin (20 mg/kg b.w.) to diabetic rats prevent significantly the raise of glucose level and also reverse the levels of insulin compared with untreated diabetic rats. Interestingly diabetic rats treated with Betanin (20 mg/kg b.w.) and Glibenclamide (HY-15206) portray the significant changes in the body weight compared to diabetic control. HbA1c levels significantly increases in diabetic rats and when treated with Betanin as well as Glibenclamide. Treatment with Betanin as well as glibenlamide to STZ-NA induces diabetic rat’s elicit significant decreases in those levels when compared with diabetic control rats[3].

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay
Cytotoxicity assays are usually based on the assessment of cell membrane damage, which can also be indirectly detected by measuring cell viability. Detection methods include MTT assay, CKK-8 assay, LDH assay and ATP assay, etc.

Research Protocol for Inflammation-related Diseases
The NLRP3 inflammasome is a cytosolic innate immune signaling platform that integrates priming signals and danger-signal activation to promote caspase-1 activation, maturation of IL-1β and IL-18, and gasdermin D-mediated pyroptotic cell death. The core experimental logic is to determine whether inflammatory disease phenotypes are driven by increased NLRP3 expression, ASC-containing inflammasome assembly, caspase-1 cleavage, GSDMD cleavage, and extracellular release of IL-1β/IL-18 rather than by nonspecific cell injury alone. The pathway is strongly linked to inflammation-related disease phenotypes because monosodium urate crystals activate NALP3/NLRP3 inflammasome signaling in gout-like crystal inflammation, cholesterol crystals activate NLRP3 inflammasomes in atherogenesis models, and DSS-induced intestinal inflammation has been reported to involve NLRP3 inflammasome activity. However, experimental colitis studies also show context-dependent protective effects of NLRP3 inflammasome co
