Rhinacanthin C

Rhinacanthin C is an orally active naphthoquinone ester and P-gp inhibitor (IC₅₀ = 5.20 μM). Rhinacanthin C exerts effects in ameliorating hepatic steatosis, insulin resistance, and inflammation by inhibiting P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1/1B3, and multiple CYP enzymes, downregulating lipid synthesis-related factors such as ACC and FAS, and upregulating AMPKα phosphorylation and SIRT1. Rhinacanthin C can be used in research on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, diabetes, abnormal osteolysis, Alzheimer's disease, and inflammation.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
