Description

Proanthocyanidin (Procyanidin) are a class of polyphenolic that are widely distributed in higher plants, consisted of an electrophilic flavanyl unit. Proanthocyanidin can be used as antioxidant and anti-cancers agent. Proanthocyanidin also exhibit anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, antibacterial and antifungal properties, which can be used in the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency, capillary fragility, sunburn and retinopathy.[1].

In Vitro

Proanthocyanidin are present in plants as complex mixtures of polymers. Predominant food sources are red wine, tea, chocolate and fruits like grapes, apples, pears, and cranberries[1].
? The most interesting antibacterial activity of Proanthocyanidin is related to their presence in cranberries (Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). A number of clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of cranberry consumption in preventing urinary tract infections (UTIs). Although UTIs can be caused by many microorganisms, more than 85% are caused by Escherichia coli. The presence of P-fimbriae on E. coli, which are proteinaceous fibers on the bacterial cell wall, has been clearly established as a virulence factor, since they are responsible by producing adhesions for adherence to uroepithelial cells. Recently, it is demonstrated that cranberry Proanthocyanidin might inhibit P-fimbriated E. coli from adhering to uroepithelial cells. The antiadhesion activity of cranberry juice appears to be related to the presence of Proanthocyanidin with at least one A-type linkage[1].

In Vivo

The effects of cacao liquor Proanthocyanidin on 2- amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo [4,5-b] pyridine-induced mutagenesis in vivo carcinogenesis in female Sprague-Dawley rats are investigated. In the Ames assay, Proanthocyanidin shows strong antimutagenic effects when assayed in the presence of S-9 mixture. They also inhibit significantly rat pancreatic carcinogenesis in the initiation stage, but not mammary carcinogenesis[1].

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 (Infinity mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    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 (Infinity 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.

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.
