Description

DL-Acetylshikonin is a non-selective, reversible cytochrome P450 inhibitor with IC50 values of 1.4-4.0 μM. DL-Acetylshikonin has anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory activities[1].

IC50 & Target[1]

CYP2C8

1.4 μM (IC50)

CYP2B6

2.0 μM (IC50)

CYP3A

2.3 μM (IC50)

CYP2C19

2.5 μM (IC50)

CYP2D6

2.5 μM (IC50)

CYP2E1

In Vitro

DL-Acetylshikonin inhibits CYP3A-mediated testosterone and Nifedipine (HY-B0284) metabolism with IC50 values of 5.2 μM and 3.0 μM, respectively, indicating that it inhibits CYP3A activity in a substrate-independent manner[1].
DL-Acetylshikonin is not a time-dependent inhibitor[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.
