Description

Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside, an active component of Rhubarb, activates endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase through inhibition of arginase activity with IC50s of 11.22 µM and 11.06 µM against arginase I and arginase II, respectively.

IC50 & Target

NO synthase[1]
IC50: 11.22 μM (Arginase I), 11.06 μM (Arginase II)[1]

In Vitro

Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside (Piceatannol-3'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside; PG) is a potent component of stilbenes, inhibits the activity of arginase I and II prepared from mouse liver and kidney lysates, respectively, in a dose-dependent manner. In human umbilical vein endothelial cells, incubation of Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside markedly blocks arginase activity and increases nitrite and nitrate (NOx) production, as measured by Griess assay. In liver lysates, incubation of different concentrations of Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside significantly decreases arginase I activity (75±5% at 1 µM, 72±7% at 3 µM, 62±1% at 10 µM) compared to untreated control (100±9%). In kidney lysates, the residual arginase activities after incubation of 1, 3 and 10 µM Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside are 75±6, 74±5, and 53±8%, respectively. Arginase activity is measured in the presence of different concentration of Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside (from 0 to 120 µM) using liver lysate and kidney lysate. The 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50) are 11.22 µM for the liver lysate and 11.06 µM for kidney lysate. The values are obtained using the software of Graphpad prizm 4.0. Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside inhibits arginase activity and increases NO production in HUVECs. Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside inhibits lipoxygenase activity upto 66% at the concentration of 100 µM and IC50 value is 69 µM[1].

In Vivo

In order to ascertain whether Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside (PG) ameliorates vascular function in wild-type (WT) and atherogenic model mice [apolipoprotein E-null mice (ApoE-/-)] and to investigate the possible underlying mechanism. Preincubation of aortic vessels from WT mice fed a normal diet (ND) with Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside attenuates vasoconstriction response to U46619 and phenylephrine (PE), while the vasorelaxant response to acetylcholine (Ach) is markedly enhanced in an endothelium-dependent manner. Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside treatment attenuates the phenylephrine (PE)-dependent contractile response, and significantly improves the acetylcholine (Ach)-dependent vasorelaxation response in aortic rings from ApoE-/- mice fed a high-cholesterol diet (HCD). Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside administration in the drinking water significantly reduces fatty streak formation in ApoE-/- mice fed an HCD[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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.15 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.15 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.

Kinase Assay
[1]

Tissue lysates are prepared using lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.1 mM EDTA and protease inhibitors) by homogenization at 4°C followed by centrifugation for 20 min at 14,000× g at 4°C. The supernatants are used to assay for arginase activity. The livers or kidneys from C57BL/6 mice (10 weeks) are homogenized in the buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Nonidet P-40, 1 mM EDTA, 1 µg/mL of leupeptin, 1 µg/mL of pepstatin, 1 µg/mL of aprotinin, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonylflouride, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate, and 1 mM NaF) and centrifuged for 30 min at 14,000× g. The protein amount of the supernatant is analyzed by the Bradford method. Protein (100 µg) are separated in a 10% SDS-PAGE and then transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane. The blots are incubated with a monoclonal anti-arginase I, anti-arginase II, anti-endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), or anti-β-tubulin antibodies followed by the secondary antibody. The signals are detected using an enhanced chemiluminescence detection reagent with X-ray films[1].

Animal Administration
[2]

Mice[2]
Twenty 10-week-old male wild-type (WT) (C57BL/6J) and ApoE-/- mice are studied. To determine the effect of Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside on vascular reactivity, aortic rings isolated from 20 male C57BL/6J WT mice fed a normal diet (ND) and 20 male ApoE-/- mice fed an HCD are studied for 6 weeks. Aortic rings are incubated with or without Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside (50 μM) for 18 h. For the pathological assay, Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside is administered in the drinking water to ApoE-/- mice for 6 weeks when the mice are started on the HCD. Given that each mouse consumes ~10 mL water/day this represents a daily dose of ~500 μg/mouse/day of Piceatannol 3'-O-glucoside[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.
