4-Hydroxyindole
Based on 1 Customer Validation
4-Hydroxyindole is a type of hydroxyindole in which the 1H-indole at position 4 is substituted by a hydroxyl group. 4-Hydroxyindole serves as an important raw material or intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceutical products and industrial polymers. 4-Hydroxyindole inhibits amyloid fibrillization and induces liver function impairment, thyroid abnormalities, and blood glucose fluctuations in mice. 4-Hydroxyindole holds potential for research in neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic disorders.

Actividad biológica
4-Hydroxyindole (0–200 μM, 24 h) inhibits amyloid β (Aβ1-42, 5 μM) fibrillization in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of approximately 85 μM[2]. Kinetic studies shows that 4-Hydroxyindole (5–50 μM, 14 days) inhibits amyloid β aggregation during the elongation phase. Amyloid fibrillization consists of three phases: nucleation (lag phase), elongation phase, and equilibrium phase. At 5 μM, Aβ1-40 fibrillization was inhibited by approximately 60%, while at 25 μM and 50 μM, fibrillization was almost completely suppressed[2]. 4-Hydroxyindole (5–50 μM) dose-dependently blocks amyloid β-induced toxicity in PC12 cells[1].

Cell Line:PC12 Cells
-
Concentration:5, 25, 50 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Dose-dependently protected PC12 cells from Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42 toxicity. The minimum concentration of 4-Hydroxyindole required to significantly inhibit Aβ1-40 was 2.5 μM, while the toxic effects of both Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42 were completely blocked at 50 μM 4-Hydroxyindole.

Animal Model:ICR Albino mice, 25-30 g
-
Dosage:620 mg/kg (4-Hydroxyindole), 320 mg/kg (Oxidation product of 4-Hydroxyindole)
-
Administration:Intracranial injection, Single dose
-
Result:In mice, the LD50 was 620 mg/kg (intracranial injection), showing lower toxicity than its oxidation product (LD50 was 320 mg/kg). Oxidation product of 4-Hydroxyindole induced behavioral abnormalities in mice and reduced blood glucose, cholesterol, and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels while increasing liver function enzymes (ALT, AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels.

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: ≥ 1.57 mg/mL (11.79 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.57 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (15.7 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.
