Fast Green FCF
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Fast Green FCF is a sea green triarylmethane food dye, with absorption maximum ranging from 622 to 626 nm. Fast Green FCF inhibits α-synuclein aggregation, as well as Aβ and P2X4 receptor, and TLR4/Myd88/NF-κB. Fast Green FCF is widely used as a staining agent like quantitative stain for histones at alkaline pH after acid extraction of DNA, and as a protein stain in electrophoresis. Fast Green FCF improves cognitive impairment, depression, relieves pain allergies, and promotes reproductive function.

Biological Activity
|
α-synuclein Aggregation |
Fast Green FCF (molar ratios of HEWL/FCF: 1 to 0.01-1 to 1, 10 days) suppresses the generation of lysozyme fibrils in a concentration-dependent manner and exhibits disaggregating activity against the preformed/existing lysozyme fibrils[2].
Fast Green FCF (100 μg/mL-1 mg/mL) inhibits synaptic activity in rat hippocampal interneurons, with half-maximum effective concentration of ~200 μg/mL (250 μM)[3].
Fast Green FCF (5-100 μM, 24 h) inhibits α-synuclein aggregation, disassembles mature fibrils and protects against amyloid-induced neurotoxicity in PC12 cells[4].
Fast green FCF (molar ratios of Aβ40 to FGF of 3:1-1:3) alleviates the cytotoxicity induced by Aβ40 fibrillogenesis in PC12 cells[5].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Result:Reduced the cytotoxicity, and the cell viability respectively reached 66.2% (5 μM) and 72.7% (25 μM).
Increased cell viability, reaching 76.4% (50 μM) and 89.0% (100 μM), respectively.
Fast Green FCF (10-100 mg/kg, i.p., once daily, 30 min before surgery) prevents postoperative cognitive dysfunction via the downregulation of the P2X4 receptor in mice[6].
Fast Green FCF (100 mg/kg, i.p., daily for 7 days) attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced depressive-like behavior and downregulates TLR4/Myd88/NF-κB signal pathway in the mouse hippocampus[7].
Fast Green FCF (30-100 mg/kg, i.p., daily for 9 days) alleviates pain hypersensitivity and down-regulates the levels of spinal P2X4 expression and pro-inflammatory cytokines in a rodent inflammatory pain model[8].
Fast Green FCF (0.017-0.041 gm per kg body weight, p.o., 42 days) causes a significant decrease in testicular weight, tubular diameter, sperm density, and sperm motility[9].
