Description

Kaempferitrin is a natural flavonoid, possesses antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, antitumoral and chemopreventive effects, and activates insulin signaling pathway.

IC50 & Target

Insulin Receptor[1]

In Vitro

Kaempferitrin activates insulin signaling pathway. Kaempferitrin causes survival rates higher than 90% at 1-20 μM in matured 3T3-L1 adipocyte, and the survival rates decline rapidly at 25 and 50 μM. Kaempferitrin (15 μM) increases insulin receptor beta tyrosine phosphorylation and tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor substrate 1, and such effects are similar to that of 10 nM insulin. Kaempferitrin (15 μM) also stimulates akt phosphorylation on ser473, and the stimulation can be blocked by a PI3-K inhibitor wortmannin. Kaempferitrin potently exerts the translocation of GLUT4 to the membrane of adipocytes at 15 μM, and this is suppressed by wortmannin. In addition, Kaempferitrin increases the total levels of Glu4 protein in differentiated cells and secreted adiponectin in mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes[1]. Kaempferitrin is cytotoxic to human cancer cells such as HeLa and MDA-MB231 cells, with IC50s of 45 ± 2.6 and 65 ± 2.6 μM, and shows low toxic effects on non-tumorigenic cells. Kaempferitrin (45 μM) induces apoptosis of HeLa cells after treatment for 24 and 48 h, and causes reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in HeLa cells. Furthermore, Kaempferitrin (45 μM) exerts G1 arrest, causes the expression of proteins associated with intrinsic pathway of apoptosis and activates caspase 3 in HeLa cells[2].

In Vivo

Kaempferitrin (2.5, 10 and 25 mg/kg, i.p.) markedly suppresses the growth of tumor by 40%, 87% and 97%, and decreases tumor weight by 37%, 81% and 95%, respectively in nu/nu mice bearing HeLa tumor. Kaempferitrin also inhibits cell proliferation and extends life span in mice bearing tumor[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 (3.60 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 (3.60 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]

Viability assay is carried out by MTT assay. Preconfluent 3T3-L1 preadipocytes are seeded to reach confluence. Kaempferitrin is added in replacement of insulin immediately after confluence (day 0), and the viability is measured 3 h after addition of the compound. Another cell viability assay is performed at day 8. For kaempferitrin combined with insulin treatment, various concentrations of kaempferitrin are added simultaneously with 0.2 nM insulin from day 0 to day 8. Cells without insulin or kaempferitrin treatment during differentiation (day 0 to day 8) are used as control. Finally, to verify the cell viability in matured 3T3-L1 cells treated with insulin or kaempferitrin for 24-48 h, MTT are incubated for 3 h at the end of the 24 h and 48 h period of compound treatments, and survival rates calculated and compared to that without insulin or kaempferitrin[1].

Animal Administration
[2]

The nu/nu mice are injected subcutaneously in their backs with HeLa cells (1.5 × 106). Four hours after tumor implantation, groups of five mice receive doses of Kaempferitrin between 2.5 to 25 mg/kg, dissolved in 0.1 mL of 0.9% saline solution, cisplatin (CDDP) 1 mg/kg or paclitaxel (PCX) 1 mg/kg injected intraperitoneally daily over a period of 32 days. The animal control group received 0.1 mL of vehicle solution. Tumors are measured using a vernier caliper, and their size in mm3 is calculated Tumor volume = lenght × width × height2. At the end of the experiments, animals are sacrificed and their tumors are excised and weighed[2].

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.
