Antroquinonol
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Antroquinonol ((+)-Antroquinonol), a ubiquinone derivative from the mushroom Antrodia camphorata, has hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer effects. Antroquinonol can be used for the research of colon cancer. Antroquinonol reduces oxidative stress by enhancing the Nrf2 signaling pathway and inhibits inflammation and sclerosis in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis mice.

Antroquinonol is a ubiquinone derivative from A.camphorata[2].
Antroquinonol inhibits cell growth and suppresses the migratory/invasive ability of human colon cancer cells. Antroquinonol at high concentrations (40-80 μM) exhibits growth inhibitory activities in the three colon cancer cell lines, whereas low concentrations of Antroquinonol (2.5-20 μM) shows modest growth inhibition[2].
Antroquinonol possesses the ability to inhibit breast cancer migration/invasion by inhibiting the EMT and MMP-9 gene expression[2].
Antroquinonol has inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitory activity in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated macrophages, anti-inflammatory activity in macrophage cell cultures by reducing the production of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin (IL)-1β, and anti-cancer activity against hepatoma cells[3].

Animal Model:8-week-old female BALB/c mice[3]
-
Dosage:50 mg/kg
-
Administration:Given daily by gavage until sacrifice
-
Result:Disease-control FSGS mice treated with vehicle showed increased urine protein levels from day 7 after induction of FSGS that continued to increase to the end of the study at day 21. This effect was almost completely suppressed in FSGS mice treated with Antroq, their levels being similar to those in normal control mice.

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 100 mg/mL (256.04 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.40 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.40 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
