Description

Sanguinarine (Sanguinarin) chloride, a benzophenanthridine alkaloid derived from the root of Sanguinaria Canadensis, can stimulate apoptosis via activating the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Sanguinarine-induced apoptosis is associated with the activation of JNK and NF-κB.

IC50 & Target

Apoptosis[1]

In Vitro

Sanguinarine (SANG)-induced apoptosis is associated with the activation of JNK and NF-κB signal pathways.To determine the effects of Sanguinarine on cell viability, 22B-cFluc cells are stimulated with different concentrations of Sanguinarine for 24 h, and then a CKK-8 assay is performed. The treatment with Sanguinarine decreases the proliferation of 22B cells in a dose-dependent manner. Meanwhile, the cytosolic extracts of 22B-cFluc cells treated with different dose of Sanguinarine are measured to detect cellular caspase-3 activity using Ac-DEVD-pNA, which is a validated caspase-3 substrate. The absorbance at 450 nm increases in a dose-dependent manner, indicating increased caspase-3 activity stimulated by Sanguinarine[1].

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

In Vivo

To evaluate the apoptosis induced by Sanguinarine (SANG) in vivo, 22B-cFluc cells are inoculated subcutaneously into one flank of nude mice and xenograft models are allowed to establish. Mice are treated intravenously with 10 mg/kg of Sanguinarine. At 24, 48 and 72 h after treatment, bioluminescent imaging is performed after i.p. injection of mice with 150 mg/kg of D-luciferin substrate. Sanguinarine treatment induces an obvious increase of luminescent signal as early as 48 h after initial treatment. A sustained bioluminescent imaging (BLI) intensity increased is observed throughout the course of experiment. At 72 h after treatment, the tumors are collected and subjected to TUNEL staining for evaluating apoptosis. Compared with the control tumors, the group treated with Sanguinarine exhibits significantly more cell apoptosis, indicated by the increased green signals from the sporadic apoptotic cells[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: ≥ 0.33 mg/mL (0.90 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.33 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (3.3 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: ≥ 0.33 mg/mL (0.90 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.33 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (3.3 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]

The caspase-3 activity is measured using a caspase-3 activity assay kit. Briefly, the cells treated by different concentrations of Sanguinarine (0.5 μM, 1 μM, 2 μM, 4 μM) or control DMSO are collected, washed and lysed in a lysis buffer for 30 min on ice. The supernatants are then collected by centrifuging at 1,2000 rpm for 10 min. The Ac-DEVD-pNA (2 mM) is added to each sample and incubated at 37°C for 1 h. The optical density (OD) of each sample is finally quantified at a wavelength of 405 nm using a spectrophotometer. The p-NA standard is used to calibrate the caspase-3 activity of each sample[1].

Cell Assay
[1]

The cell viability of Sanguinarine is determined by CCK-8 assay using a cell counting kit-8. Briefly, 22B-cFluc cells are seeded in a 96-well plate (5×103 cells/well) and treated with different concentrations of Sanguinarine (0.5 μM, 1 μM, 2 μM, 4 μM) for 24 h. Then 10 mL CKK-8 is added to each well for 4 h and the absorbance at 450 nm is measured with a microplate reader. The optical density (OD) values are determined to reflect the viable cell populations from each well[1].

Animal Administration
[1]

Mice[1]
Xenografted tumor models are prepared by injection of 1×107 22B-cFluc cells suspended in PBS into nude mouse (n=6). After tumors reach a volume of approximately 100 mm3, Sanguinarine (10 mg/kg) is i.v. injected into mice. After injection for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h, mice are given a single i.p. dose of 150 mg/kg D-luciferin and bioluminescence imaging are performed using a Xenogen Lumina II system. The signal intensity in the region of interest is expressed using the Living Image software 4.1. For the anti-tumor therapy studies, one group of tumor-bearing mice (n=6) receive intravenously 10 mg/kg of Sanguinarine every other day throughout the experimental period, while the control group of mice (n=6) receive DMSO only. Tumor growth measurement is calculated[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.
