Bartogenic acid is an orally active NF-κB inhibitor, found in Barringtonia racemosa fruits. Bartogenic acid increases catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione levels. Bartogenic acid inhibits lipid peroxidation and suppresses inflammation markers. Bartogenic acid can be used for the research of ovarian cancer, skin cancer, and inflammatory conditions.

Description

Bartogenic acid is an orally active NF-κB inhibitor, found in Barringtonia racemosa fruits. Bartogenic acid increases catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione levels. Bartogenic acid inhibits lipid peroxidation and suppresses inflammation markers. Bartogenic acid can be used for the research of ovarian cancer, skin cancer, and inflammatory conditions[1][2][3][4].

IC50 & Target[1]

NF-κB

 

In Vitro

Bartogenic acid (0.1-100 μM; 48 h) inhibits the growth of human ovarian cancer SKOV-3 cells in vitro with an IC50 of 15.72 μM[1].
Bartogenic acid (48 h) potently and selectively induces cytotoxicity in human skin carcinoma SCC-13 cells (IC50=7.5 µM) with a selectivity index of 4.05[2].

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

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: human ovarian cancer SKOV-3 cells
Concentration: 0.1 μM; 1 μM; 10 μM; 50 μM; 100 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Dose-dependently reduced the viability of SKOV-3 cells, with an IC50 value of 15.72 μM after 48 h of treatment.
Decreased as the concentration of bartogenic acid increased.
In Vivo

Bartogenic acid (3 mg/kg; i.v.; daily; 21 days) reduces SKOV-3 ovarian tumor growth by 41.47% in SCID mice[1].
Bartogenic acid (1-4 mg/kg; p.o./topical; daily; 13.5 weeks) exhibits dose-dependent chemopreventive efficacy against DMBA (HY-W011845)/Croton oil-induced skin cancer in Swiss albino mice, with the 4 mg/kg oral dose achieving the lowest tumor incidence (36.1%) and near-normal antioxidant marker levels and skin architecture[2].
Bartogenic acid (2-10 mg/kg; p.o.; daily for 21 days) protects rats against the primary and secondary arthritic lesions, body weight changes and haematological perturbations induced by CFA (HY-153808)[4].

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

Significantly reduced skin malondialdehyde (MDA) levels to 125.7 μg/mg protein, restored GSH content to near-normal levels, significantly increased catalase, SOD, and GSHPx activities, and preserved normal skin architecture with only mild epidermal cell invasion at 2 mg/kg oral dose.
Reduced tumor incidence to 36.1%, with an average of 4.19 tumors per tumor-bearing mouse, mean tumor volume of 45.6 mm3, and mean tumor weight of 0.11 gm at 4 mg/kg oral dose.
Significantly reduced skin MDA levels to 104.5 μg/mg protein, restored GSH content and catalase, SOD, and GSHPx activities to near-normal levels, and preserved fully normal skin architecture with no epidermal thickening or cell invasion at 4 mg/kg oral dose.
Reduced tumor incidence to 48.2%, with an average of 8.21 tumors per tumor-bearing mouse, mean tumor volume of 63.5 mm3, and mean tumor weight of 0.51 gm at 4 mg/kg topical dose.
Reduced skin MDA levels to 141.6 μg/mg protein, restored GSH content and catalase, SOD, and GSHPx activities to near-normal levels, and showed mild to moderate histopathological improvement at 4 mg/kg topical dose.
Animal Model: Wistar rats (either sex, 100-150 g, Complete Freund’s Adjuvant-induced arthritis)[3]
Dosage: 2 mg/kg; 5 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg

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.
