Multiflorin A
Multiflorin A is an orally active active ingredient of traditional herbal laxative, Pruni semen. Multiflorin A inhibits aromatase enzyme activity with an IC50 of 15.5 μM. Multiflorin A also inhibits quinone reductase 2 (QR2) and COX-2 enzyme. Multiflorin A has purgative activity and reduces postprandial blood glucose in mice. Multiflorin A modulates intestinal glucose transporters, tight junction proteins, and aquaporins, reshapes gut microbiota, and alters faecal metabolites. Multiflorin A can be used for the research of constipation and diabetes.

Description
IC50 & Target
[1]|
Aromatase 15.5 μM (IC50) |
COX-2 |
In Vitro
Multiflorin A potently inhibits aromatase enzyme activity with an IC50 of 15.5 μM[2].
Multiflorin A (11.5 μg/mL) inhibits QR2 enzyme activity by 39%[2].
Multiflorin A (10 μg/mL) stimulates COX-1 enzyme activity by 29% and inhibits COX-2 enzyme activity by 16%[2].
Multiflorin A (20 μg/mL; 6 h) does not inhibit TNF-α-induced NF-κB activity in human embryonic kidney 293 cells at a concentration of 20 μg/mL[2].
Multiflorin A (20 μg/mL) exhibits no significant cytotoxicity toward Hepa1c1c7 or MCF-7 cells[2].

In Vivo
Multiflorin A (10-20 mg/kg; i.g.; single dose) effectively reverses Loperamide hydrochloride (HY-B0418A)-induced constipation in male ICR mice, significantly reducing first stool time and increasing faecal water content[1].
Multiflorin A (10 mg/kg; i.g.; single dose) inhibits postprandial blood glucose elevation in male ICR mice, with effects persisting for at least 6 h after administration[1].
Multiflorin A (10-20 mg/kg; i.g.; daily; 3 days) modulates intestinal glucose transporters, tight junction proteins, and aquaporins, reshapes gut microbiota, and alters faecal metabolites in male ICR mice[1].

Animal Model:ICR (male, 24-26 g)[1]
-
Dosage:20 mg/kg; 40 mg/kg
-
Administration:p.o.; single dose
-
Result:Induced watery diarrhoea in 62% of mice, significantly decreased the time to first red stool, and significantly increased faecal water content compared to controls at 20 mg/kg.
Induced watery diarrhoea in 100% of mice, significantly decreased the time to first red stool, and significantly increased faecal water content compared to controls at 40 mg/kg.
Caused noticeable watery diarrhoea and intestinal distension in fed mice, while fasted mice showed no watery diarrhoea.
