Description

Brazzein is a functional sweetener with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-allergic activities.

Brazzein inhibits COX-2 with an IC50 of 12.62 μM. Brazzein exhibits strong antioxidant effects, showing ABTS radical scavenging activity (IC50 = 12.55 μM). Brazzein shows no antibacterial or antifungal activity. Brazzein can be used for the research of obesity, metabolic disorder, inflammation[1][2].

IC50 & Target[1]

COX-2

12.62 μM (IC50)

In Vitro

Brazzein (15-30 μM) shows strong ABTS radical scavenging activity with an IC50 of 12.55 μM in cell-free conditions[1].
Brazzein (15-30 μM; 30 min) shows weaker DPPH radical scavenging activity compared to ABTS, with an IC50 > 30 μM in cell-free conditions[1].
Brazzein (3-25 μM) inhibits human COX-2 activity with an IC50 of 12.62 μM in cell-free conditions[1].
Brazzein (1–15 μM) shows weak anti-inflammatory activity in RAW 264.7 cells, with an IC50 > 15 μM for NO production inhibition[1].
Brazzein (1-15 μM) has no cytotoxic effect on RAW 264.7 cells[1].

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.
