Xylitol

(Synonyms: Xylite)

Avis client

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Xylitol can be classified as a polyol and sugar alcohol, exhibiting inhibitory activity on cancer cell proliferation. It induces autophagy (Autophagy) and cell death in A549 cells by activating the autophagy signaling pathway, as evidenced by the increased expression of LC3-II and Atg5-Atg12 upon Xylitol treatment. Additionally, Xylitol inhibits acetaldehyde production by Candida species, thereby reducing their carcinogenic potential. In vivo, Xylitol induces alterations in the gut microbiota of mice, which may enhance cholesterol accumulation and upregulate hepatic ChREBP, while also slowing tumor growth in the B16F10 melanoma C57BL/6 mouse model.

In Vitro

Xylitol (0.125% - 32%, 72 h) inhibits proliferation of A549, Caki, NCI-H23, HCT-15, HL-60, K562, and SK MEL-2 cells, with IC₅₀ ranging from 3.9% to 8.2%, and K562 being the most sensitive. Normal cells exhibited higher tolerance to Xylitol^[3].
Xylitol (6%, 24 h) induces cell death and autophagy in A549 cells^[3].

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

Cell Viability Assay^[3]

Cell Line:

A549 (lung cancer), Caki (kidney cancer), NCI-H23 (lung cancer), HCT-15 (colorectal cancer), HL-60 (acute promyelocytic leukemia), K562 (chronic myelogenous leukemia),SK MEL-2 (melanoma)
Concentration:

0.125% - 32% (cells were cultured in 96-well plates at 10⁴ cells/well)
Incubation Time:

72 h
Result:

Inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner, IC₅₀ values for each cell line: A549 (6.0%), Caki (7.5%), NCI-H23 (8.2%), HCT-15 (5.4%), HL-60 (4.7%), K562 (3.9%, most sensitive), SK MEL-2 (6.8%). IC₅₀ for normal HGF cells was significantly higher than that for cancer cells.

Western Blot Analysis^[3]

Cell Line:

A549 (lung cancer)
Concentration:

6% (cells were cultured in 96-well plates at 10⁴ cells/well)
Incubation Time:

24 h
Result:

Increased the expression of LC3-II and Atg5-Atg12, indicating activation of the autophagy pathway.

In Vivo

Xylitol (20%, i.t. (75%) + s.c. (25%), once daily for 2 weeks) transiently inhibits tumor growth in the B16F10 melanoma C57BL/6 mouse model, but fails to sustain inhibition, likely due to solution leakage^[1].
Xylitol (40 mg/kg and 194 mg/kg, drinking water intake, once daily for 16-18 weeks) modifies gut microbiota composition in HFD-fed C57Bl/6J mice but does not ameliorate HFD-induced dyslipidemia^[2].

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

Animal Model:

High-fat diet (HFD)-induced gut microbiota and lipid metabolism changes in C57Bl/6J mice^[2]
Dosage:

40 mg/kg, 194 mg/kg
Administration:

Drinking water intake (ad libitum), once daily for 16-18 weeks
Result:

Low-dose (40 mg/kg) and medium-dose (194 mg/kg): significantly altered the composition of fecal microbiota in mice.
Medium-dose: decreased the abundance of Bacteroidetes phylum and Barnesiella genus, while increased the abundance of Firmicutes phylum and Prevotella genus.
Did not affect body weight, hepatic and serum lipid parameters, oral glucose tolerance, or luminal metabolites.

Animal Model:

B16F10 melanoma C57BL/6 mouse model^[1]
Dosage:

20% Xylitol solution
Administration:

Intratumoral injection (i.t.) 75%; Subcutaneous (peritumoral) injection (s.c.) 25%, once daily for 14 days
Result:

Significantly inhibited B16F10 melanoma growth during the first 5 days (p < 0.05), with a ~40% reduction in tumor volume. (After 5 days, tumor stromal degradation led to leakage of the Xylitol solution, allowing tumor regrowth, making it comparable to the control group.)

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.
