Mirificin
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Mirificin (Puerarin apioside) is a blood-brain barrier-permeable tyrosinase inhibitor, with an IC50 value of 12.66 μM against mushroom tyrosinase. Mirificin reduces the expression of ALOX12 in cardiomyocytes and alleviates hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced apoptosis. The neuroprotective effect of Mirificin depends on the activation of VEGFR2 and HSP1A1, which reduces cerebral infarct size and improves neurological function. Mirificin can be used in the research of hyperpigmentation, acute myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke.

Mirificin (20.0 μM) shows no toxicity to H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes, even at the highest concentration tested[2].
Mirificin (5-50 μM; 24 h) dose-dependently increases the viability and reduces the cytotoxicity of differentiated PC12 cells with oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) injury[3].
Mirificin (0.1-10.0 μM) significantly reduces the mRNA expression level of Alox12 in H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes[2].
Mirificin (0.1 μM; 3 h) protects H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes against hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced injury by inhibiting ALOX12 protein expression, restoring the BCL-2/BAX ratio, and reducing apoptosis[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

-
Animal Model:C57BL/6 (male, 6 weeks old, 18-22g, intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion with 2 hours of occlusion followed by reperfusion)[3]
-
Dosage:12.5 mg/kg; 25 mg/kg
-
Administration:i.p.; two time points (1 hour pre-MCAO and 1 hour post-MCAO)
-
Result:Showed a significant reduction in Longa's Neurological Severity Score and a significant decrease in cerebral infarct area at 12.5 mg/kg.
Showed significant reductions in both neurological deficit score and cerebral infarct area, with a larger reduction in infarct area than the 12.5 mg/kg group at 25 mg/kg.
