Aloin (mixture of A&B)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Aloin (mixture of A&B) is an orally active anthraquinone derivative isolated from Aloe vera. Aloin (mixture of A&B) mitigates airway impairment and exerts neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and antitumor effects. Aloin (mixture of A&B) inhibits Clostridium histolyticum collagenase, granulocyte matrix metalloproteinases and human 20S proteasome. Aloin (mixture of A&B) upregulates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, suppresses the TGF-β/Smad2/3 pathway. Aloin (mixture of A&B) reduces IL-4/IL-5/IL-13 levels, and reverses oxidative stress markers (MDA, SOD, GSH). Aloin (mixture of A&B) can be used for research on chronic ulcers, burns, wounds, inflammatory and degenerative disorders, asthma and neuroblastoma.

In Vitro
Aloin (mixture of A&B) (0.365-2.16 mM; 15-30 min) reversibly and non-competitively inhibits purified Clostridium histolyticum collagenase with an IC50 of 2.01 mM[1].
Aloin (mixture of A&B) (0.29 mM) inhibits activated human granulocyte matrix metalloproteinases with an IC50 of 0.29 mM[1].
Aloin (mixture of A&B) (1-750 μM; up to 45 min) potently inhibits human 20S proteasome chymotrypsin-like activity with an IC50 of 28 μM[3].
Aloin (mixture of A&B) (50-400 μM; 48 h) exhibits antiproliferative activity against human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells with an IC50 of 218.9 μM after 48 h of treatment[3].
Aloin (mixture of A&B) (up to 1 mM; 48 h) exhibits dose-dependent antiproliferative activity against human cervical cancer HeLa cells after 48 h of treatment, with HeLa cells being more resistant than SH-SY5Y cells[3].

Solvent & Solubility
In Vitro:
DMSO : 100 mg/mL (239.01 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (protect from light). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.98 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 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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (5.98 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.
