Gardenia yellow is a competitive inhibitor of α-Amylase (HY-B2193) and α-glucosidase. Gardenia yellow can bind to the catalytic sites of α-Amylase and α-glucosidase, inhibit starch digestion, and significantly increase the contents of resistant starch and slowly digestible starch in starch-based systems. Gardenia yellow reduces the glycemic index and hydrolysis index. Gardenia yellow can be used in diabetes-related research.

Description

Gardenia yellow is a competitive inhibitor of α-Amylase (HY-B2193) and α-glucosidase. Gardenia yellow can bind to the catalytic sites of α-Amylase and α-glucosidase, inhibit starch digestion, and significantly increase the contents of resistant starch and slowly digestible starch in starch-based systems. Gardenia yellow reduces the glycemic index and hydrolysis index. Gardenia yellow can be used in diabetes-related research[1].

IC50 & Target

SIRT3

 

In Vitro

Gardenia yellow (0.1-2% (w/w relative to wheat starch); up to 180 min) significantly reduces the hydrolysis rate and glycemic index/hydrolysis index of wheat starch, decreases the content of rapidly digestible starch, and increases the content of resistant starch in digestion models[1].
Gardenia yellow (0.1-1.0 mg mL−1; 10 min enzyme pre-incubation, 10 min substrate incubation) inhibits porcine pancreatic α-amylase activity in a concentration-dependent manner; in cell-free assays, its IC50 is 2.973 mg mL−1, and the inhibition rate reaches 26.71% at the concentration of 1.0 mg mL−1[1].
Gardenia yellow (0.1-1.0 mg mL-1; 10 min enzyme pre-incubation, 30 min substrate incubation) inhibits the activity of yeast α-glucosidase in a concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 0.677 mg mL-1 in cell-free assays, and the inhibition rate reaches 62.46% at the concentration of 1.0 mg mL-1[1].

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 3 mg/mL; Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 3 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (30.0 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 3 mg/mL; Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 3 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (30.0 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.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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.

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.
