Description

In Vitro

Isovitexin protects against LPS-induced oxidative damage by suppressing intracellular ROS generation, and also attenuates the effect of H2O2 on cell viability. Isovitexin (0-100 μg/mL) with LPS (2 μg/mL) is not cytotoxic to RAW 264.7 cells, but 200 μg/mL Isovitexin shows significant cytotoxicity. Isovitexin (25, 50 μg/mL) inhibits LPS-induced increases in TNF-α, IL-6, iNOS, and COX-2 levels. Isovitexin (25, 50 μg/mL) also suppresses the IκBα phosphorylation and degradation in RAW 264.7 cells, and such an effect is consistent with that of JNK1/2 inhibitor[1].

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

In Vivo

Isovitexin (50 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) causes less severe histopathological changes in the lung sections, and reduces inflammatory cell count in LPS-induced mice. Isovitexin (50 and 100 mg/kg, i.p.) protects against LPS-induced inflammation and oxidative stress in LPS-induced ALI mice by decreasing TNF-α and IL-6 production, ROS generation, and MPO and MDA content, increasing SOD and GSH levels and effectively inhibiting the protein expression of iNOS and COX-2[1]. Isovitexin (25, 50, 100 mg/kg) dose-dependently reduces the survival rate of LPS/D-gal induced hepatic injury in mice. Isovitexin also inhibits NF-κB activation and up-regulates Nrf2 and HO-1 induced by LPS/D-gal in mice[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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.81 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (4.81 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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.

Cell Assay
[1]

Cell viability is determined by an MTT assay. RAW 264.7 cells are plated in 96-well plates (1 × 104 cells/well) and incubated with various concentrations of Isovitexin (final concentration: 0-200 μg/mL) and LPS (2 μg/mL) for 24 h. In addition, the cells are pretreated with IV (25 or 50 μg/mL) for 1 h, followed by the addition of H2O2 (300 μM). After 24 h, MTT (5 mg/mL) is added to the cells, which are then incubated for another 4 h[1].

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice[1]
To create an ALI model, mice are randomLy divided into six groups: control (saline), Isovitexin only (100 mg/kg, dissolved in 0.5% DMSO), LPS only (0.5 mg/kg, dissolved in saline), LPS (0.5 mg/kg) + Isovitexin (50 or 100 mg/kg), and LPS (0.5 mg/kg) + dexamethasone (Dex, 5 mg/kg dissolved in saline). Isovitexin or Dex (5 mg/kg) are administered Isovitexin. After exposure to Isovitexin or Dex for 1 h, the mice are anesthetized with diethyl ether, and LPS is administered intranasally (i.n.) to induce lung injury. After LPS administration for 12 h, the animals are euthanized. Accordingly, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue samples are harvested to measure cytokine levels; ROS generation; SOD, GSH, MDA and MPO activity; and COX-2, iNOS, HO-1, and Nrf2 protein expression[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.
