Description

(-)-Epicatechin gallate (Epicatechin gallate) inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) with an IC50 of 7.5 μM.

IC50 & Target

COX-1

7.5 μM (IC50)

In Vitro

(-)-Epicatechin gallate (Epicatechin gallate) exhibits >95% inhibitory activity at 70 μg/mL against cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) with an IC50 of 7.5 μM[1].

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

In Vivo

(-)-Epicatechin gallate (Epicatechin gallate), a component of Rhei Rhizoma, is one of the active components of Onpi-to, a herbal medicine composed of five crude drugs (Rhei Rhizome, Glycyrrhizae Radix, Ginseng Radix, Zingiberis Rhizoma and Aconiti Tuber). Following intravenous injection of (-)-Epicatechin gallate (1.0 mg/kg) in rats, the plasma concentration vs. time curve is fitted in a three compartment model. Pharmacokinetic parameters for plasma Epicatechin gallate (ECG) are measured. ECG has a t1/2α of 0.038 h, a t1/2βof 0.291 h and a t1/2γ of 4.033 h . The CLtot of ECG is 4.19 L/h • kg. The Vdss is 12.39 L/kg[2].

Animal Administration

Rats[2]
Male Sprague-Dawley rats, obtained at 7 weeks of age (210-245 g) are used. Epicatechin gallate (ECG) is suspended in 0.5% w/v sodium carboxymethylcellulose at 12.5, 25.0 and 50.0 mg/10 mL for oral administration to rats at 10 mL/kg. For intravenous injection in rats at 1.0 mg/kg, an ethanolic solution of Epicatechin gallate is diluted with 10% w/v sodium citrate solution to 1.0 mg/mL; the final concentration of ethanol is 1% v/v[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.
