Activité biologique
Description
In Vitro
Bornesitol (1-100 μM; 24 h) shows no cytotoxicity against B16F10 melanoma cells at concentrations of 1 μM or 10 μM after 24 h of incubation, but induces cytotoxicity at a concentration of 100 μM[1].
Bornesitol (5 μM; 48 h) weakly inhibits tyrosinase activity in B16F10 melanoma cells after incubation at 5 μM for 48 h, with an inhibition rate of 3.06%[1].
Bornesitol (5 μM; 48 h) exerts only an extremely weak inhibitory effect on melanin content in B16F10 melanoma cells, with an inhibition rate of 0.89% after 48 h of incubation[1].

Cell Viability Determination by MTT Colorimetric Assay
The following protocol uses the MTT colorimetric assay as a classic literature-established method for assessing cell viability/metabolic activity in cultured mammalian cells. MTT[3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] is reduced by metabolically active cells to a colored formazan product; the amount of formazan is quantified spectrophotometrically and provides an indirect measure of metabolically active viable cells. Importantly, MTT reduction reflects cellular oxidoreductase/metabolic activity rather than an absolute direct count of living cells, so changes in cellular metabolism can alter the signal independently of cell number.
