In Vitro

Tangeretin enhanced the radiosensitivity of GC cells as demonstrated by MTT and colony formation assays. Tangeretin also attenuated radiation-induced EMT, invasion and migration in GC cells, accompanied by a decrease in Notch-1, Jagged1/2, Hey-1 and Hes-1 expressions. Tangeretin triggered the upregulation of miR-410, a tumor-suppressive microRNA. Furthermore, re-expression of miR-410 prevented radiation-induced EMT and cell invasion^[1].

In Vivo

In this study, we investigated the in vivo anti-RSV activity of tangeretin in 3-week-old male BALB/c mice. A plaque reduction assay and fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (FQ-PCR) showed that tangeretin inhibited RSV replication in the lung of mice^[2].

Protocol 1

Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% Corn Oil
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.71 mM); Clear solution

This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.

Cell Assay	The effect of tangeretin on RAW264.7 cells was determined using a MTT assay as previously reported.(13) Briefly, RAW264.7 cells (1 × 104 cells/well) were seeded in a 96-well plate for 24 h and treated with different concentrations of tangeretin (6.3–50.0 μM) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (vehicle control, 0.01 and 0.1%) for 10 or 48 h. The absorbance was measured at 570 nm using an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) reader (Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA), and cell viability (%) was calculated as follows: [(absorbance of the test group – absorbance of the blank control)/(absorbance of the control group – absorbance of the blank control)] × 100. MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Animal Administration	Animal administration [2] The mice were maintained in an air-conditioned, pathogen-free room (temperature of 24 ± 2 °C, with a 12 h light/dark cycle from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm) with free access to food and water. Mice were randomly divided into five groups (n = 10) as follows: normal (control), RSV-challenged, and three treatment groups administered 25, 50, or 100 mg/kg/day tangeretin dissolved in saline. The control and RSV-challenged groups received equal volumes of saline. During the experiment, mice in the treatment groups were intragastrically administrated tangeretin for 3 days consecutively before RSV stimulation. Mice were lightly anesthetized with diethyl ether and intranasally challenged with RSV Long strain [6.7 × 106 plaque-forming units (PFU)] on day 4 after tangeretin treatment, while the control group was sham-infected with an equal volume of HEp-2 cell lysate, which was centrifuged under the same conditions as the viral suspensions. The mice were weighed during the experiment and sacrificed on day 5 post-infection after anesthetizing them with chloral hydrate (Figure 1B). The lung tissues were removed and weighed, and the lung index was calculated using the following formula: lung index = lung weight/body weight.

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.
