Cat. No.: HY-N0410 Purity: ≥80.0%
COA Handling Instructions

Daucosterol is an orally active natural sterol compound, which has anti-inflammatory, anticancer and immunomodulatory activities. Daucosterol inhibits cancer cell proliferation by inducing autophagy through ROS-dependent manner. Daucosterol also inhibits colon cancer growth by inducing apoptosis, inhibiting cell migration and invasion and targeting caspase signalling pathway.

    Description

    Daucosterol is an orally active natural sterol compound, which has anti-inflammatory, anticancer and immunomodulatory activities. Daucosterol inhibits cancer cell proliferation by inducing autophagy through ROS-dependent manner. Daucosterol also inhibits colon cancer growth by inducing apoptosis, inhibiting cell migration and invasion and targeting caspase signalling pathway[1][2][3].

    In Vitro

    Daucosterol (0.01-100 μM, 48 h) inhibits the proliferation of MCF-7, AGS, MGC803 and BGC823 cells in a dose-dependent manner, with IC50s of 19.96 μM, 3.13 μM, 24.19 μM and 16.95 μM, respectively[1].
    Daucosterol (50 μM, 24 h) significantly increases ROS production in MCF-7 and BGC823 cells[1].
    Daucosterol (0-80 μM, 48 h) inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis in PC3 and LNCap cells[2].

    Western Blot Analysis[2]

    Cell Line: PC3 and LNCap cells
    Concentration: 0-80 μM
    Incubation Time: 48 h
    Result: Increased the expressions of cleaved caspase 3, cleaved caspase 9, Bax protein, LC3II/LC3I ration and Beclin 1.
    Decreased the the expressions of Bax protein and p62.
    In Vivo

    Daucosterol (0.5-2.5 mg/kg, p.o., once per day for 7 days) significantly inhibits the H22 tumor growth in ICR mice inoculated with H22 hepatoma cells[1].

    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.
