Hydroxytyrosol  (Synonyms: DOPET; 3,4-Dihydroxyphenethyl alcohol; 3-Hydroxytyrosol)

Cat. No.: HY-N0570 Purity: 98.81%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Hydroxytyrosol (DOPET; 3,4-Dihydroxyphenethyl alcohol) is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable multi-active compound with multiple effects including antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-platelet aggregation, and neuroprotective activities. Hydroxytyrosol not only inhibits the growth of Vibrio by increasing bacterial membrane permeability, but also interacts with DNA and mediates supercoiled DNA relaxation. Meanwhile, Hydroxytyrosol effectively reduces thrombosis and inhibits lipid oxidation by inhibiting COX activity and promoting vascular nitric oxide production. In terms of neuroprotection, Hydroxytyrosol significantly alleviates neuronal apoptosis and inflammatory responses by up-regulating the expression level of ERβ, thereby improving cognitive function in Alzheimer's disease models. Hydroxytyrosol has been widely used in scientific research related to Vibrio infection, arterial thrombosis, Alzheimer's disease and other related fields.

    Hydroxytyrosol (39-80 μg/mL; up to 24 h) inhibits growth of Vibrio parahemolyticus with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 39 μg/mL and minimum bactericidal concentration of 78 μg/mL, and 80 μg/mL of the compound almost completely stops bacterial growth during incubation[1].
    Hydroxytyrosol (15-250 min) exhibits time-dependent DPPH radical scavenging activity with EC50 values of 0.26, 0.22, and 0.14 mol AH/mol DPPH at 15, 60, and 250 min, respectively, showing weaker activity than hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein, and 3,4-DHPEA-EA but activity comparable to α-tocopherol[3].
    Hydroxytyrosol (20 μM; 24 h) enhances ERβ promoter activity in HT22 cells, promoting ERβ transcriptional expression[4].
    Hydroxytyrosol (10-20 μM; 24-48 h) enhances ERβ mRNA and protein expression in HT22 cells, with greater effects at higher concentrations or longer incubation times[4].
    Hydroxytyrosol (10 μM; 48 h) protects primary rat hippocampal neurons from Aβ25-35-induced cell death and apoptosis by restoring ERβ expression and inhibiting apoptotic signaling pathways[4].
    Hydroxytyrosol (10 μM; 48 h) protects primary rat hippocampal neurons from Aβ25-35-induced apoptosis in an ERβ-dependent manner, as its neuroprotective effects are eliminated when ERβ is knocked down[4].
    Hydroxytyrosol (10 μM; 24 h) alleviates Aβ25-35-induced synaptic dysfunction in primary rat hippocampal neurons in an in vitro ERβ-dependent manner, as its protective effects on electrophysiological function are eliminated when ERβ is knocked down[4].

    Hydroxytyrosol (1-100 mg/kg per day; p.o.; daily; 7 days) administered orally to rats for 7 days inhibits collagen-induced platelet aggregation with an ID50 of 16.05 mg/kg per day, via mechanisms including reduced thromboxane B2 synthesis and increased nitric oxide production[2].
    Hydroxytyrosol (50 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily; 12 weeks) improves cognitive function, reduces neuronal apoptosis and inflammation, and restores cerebral ERβ expression in female APP/PS1 transgenic Alzheimer's disease mice, without altering Aβ processing[4].

    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

    • 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.
