Sesamol has also been shown to be a classical inhibitor of lipid peroxidation[1].
Sesamol (0-1 mM) efficiently induces the apoptosis of human liver hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells[2].
Sesamol suppresses cell proliferation and induces intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis in HepG2 cells[2].
Sesamol treatment elicites mitochondrial dysfunction by inducing a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. Sesamol inhibits mitophagy and autophagy through impeding the PI3K Class III/Belin-1 pathway. Sesamol decreases the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, but shows no effect on the expression of apoptotic signal Bax. Sesamol improves the protein expression of Fas/FasL, and activates tBid and caspase-8 which are all involved in the extrinsic apoptosis pathway[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
The Bcl-2/Bax ratio in tumor tissues is also decreased. Moreover, in the Sesamol treatment group, levels of the cell proliferation marker Ki76 are down-regulated, and levels of the cell apoptosis marker cleaved-caspase 3 are increased when compared to control. The expression of LC3 protein is remarkably decreased by Sesamol in a dose-dependent manner[2].

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.
