  3. FuBIG

FuBIG is an iminoguanidine derivative with neuroprotective effects. FuBIGL inhibits L-LDH activation and reduces lactate production. FuBIGL exerts protective effects on inflammatory nerve cells, upregulates the expressions of AMPK, pAMPK and FOXO3, and activates the AMPK pathway in cells. FuBIG exerts anti-inflammatory effects by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α) and increasing the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. FuBIG maintains mitochondrial membrane potential, alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction, reduces ROS production, and relieves oxidative stress. FuBIG upregulates Bcl-2, downregulates Bax and Caspase-3, and inhibits cell apoptosis (apoptosis). FuBIG improves metabolic disorders in diabetic mice, decreases the levels of LDL-C, ALT and AST, and increases HDL-C level simultaneously. FuBIG can be used in the research of diabetic neuroinflammation.

Description

FuBIG is an iminoguanidine derivative with neuroprotective effects. FuBIGL inhibits L-LDH activation and reduces lactate production. FuBIGL exerts protective effects on inflammatory nerve cells, upregulates the expressions of AMPK, pAMPK and FOXO3, and activates the AMPK pathway in cells. FuBIG exerts anti-inflammatory effects by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α) and increasing the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. FuBIG maintains mitochondrial membrane potential, alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction, reduces ROS production, and relieves oxidative stress. FuBIG upregulates Bcl-2, downregulates Bax and Caspase-3, and inhibits cell apoptosis (apoptosis). FuBIG improves metabolic disorders in diabetic mice, decreases the levels of LDL-C, ALT and AST, and increases HDL-C level simultaneously. FuBIG can be used in the research of diabetic neuroinflammation[1].

In Vitro

FuBIG (3d) (0.3 mM; 48 h) potently reduces the excessive activation of L-LDH induced by LPS (HY-D1056) in SH-SY5Y and THLE-2 cells, restores its activity to near baseline levels, and decreases lactate accumulation[1].
FuBIG (0-1600 μM; 48 h) exerts a protective effect against LPS-induced cell death in SH-SY5Y cells and BV2 cells (with an EC50 of 222.3 μM for SH-SY5Y cells and an EC50 of 198.1 μM for BV2 cells), and maintains a cell survival rate of over 85% at a concentration of 1 mM[1].
FuBIG (0.3 mM; 12-24 h) can be transported into THLE-2 cells via OCT1[1].
FuBIG (0.3 mM; 48 h) activates the AMPK pathway in LPS-induced BV2 cells by upregulating the protein expression of AMPK, pAMPK and FOXO3[1].
FuBIG (0.3 mM; 48 h) exerts anti-inflammatory effects in LPS-induced BV2 cells by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α) and increasing the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10[1].
FuBIG (0.3 mM; 48 h) maintains mitochondrial membrane potential, alleviates LPS-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, reduces cellular ROS production, and mitigates oxidative stress in LPS-stimulated BV2 cells[1].
FuBIG (0.3 mM; 48 h) inhibits LPS-induced apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells by upregulating the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and downregulating the pro-apoptotic proteins Bax, Caspase-3, and activated Caspase-3[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.
