  3. Isoeucommin A

Isoeucommin A is a lignan compound. Isoeucommin A activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and induces phosphorylation of GSK-3β. Isoeucommin A reduces the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, decreases the oxidative stress marker MDA, increases the antioxidants SOD and GSH, and alleviates oxidative stress in mesangial cells. Isoeucommin A alleviates renal tissue injury, improves impaired renal function and enhances the viability of renal tubular epithelial cells in diabetic nephropathy models. Isoeucommin A can be used in the research of diabetic nephropathy.

Description

Isoeucommin A is a lignan compound. Isoeucommin A activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and induces phosphorylation of GSK-3β. Isoeucommin A reduces the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6, decreases the oxidative stress marker MDA, increases the antioxidants SOD and GSH, and alleviates oxidative stress in mesangial cells. Isoeucommin A alleviates renal tissue injury, improves impaired renal function and enhances the viability of renal tubular epithelial cells in diabetic nephropathy models. Isoeucommin A can be used in the research of diabetic nephropathy[1].

In Vitro

Isoeucommin A (31.25-125 μM; 24 h) activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway in normal human renal mesangial cells (HRMCs)[1].
Isoeucommin A (61.3-125 μM; 24 h) activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway in high glucose (HG)-stimulated HRMCs by increasing p-GSK-3β levels[1].
Isoeucommin A (31.25-125 μM; 24 h) enhances the antioxidant capacity of HRMCs stimulated by high glucose (HG)[1].

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: normal human renal mesangial cells (HRMCs)
Concentration: 31.25 μM, 61.3 μM, 125 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Significantly increased Nrf2 protein expression at 31.25 μM.
Significantly increased both Nrf2 and HO-1 protein expression at 61.3 μM and 125 μM, with the highest concentration (125 μM) producing the greatest increase in protein levels.

Western Blot Analysis[1]

Cell Line: high-glucose (HG)-stimulated human renal mesangial cells (HRMCs)
Concentration: 61.3 μM, 125 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Significantly increased p-GSK-3β protein expression, the p-GSK-3β/GSK-3β ratio, Nrf2 protein expression, and HO-1 protein expression compared to the HG-only group, with 125 μM producing the most robust increases.
In Vivo

Isoeucommin A (2.5-10 mg/kg; intravenous injection; once daily; for 28 consecutive days) dose-dependently activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, thereby improving renal dysfunction, tissue damage, inflammation and oxidative stress in rats with streptozotocin (HY-13753)-induced diabetic nephropathy[1].

Animal Model: Sprague Dawley (male, 8 weeks old, STZ-induced diabetic nephropathy)[1]
Dosage: 2.5 mg/kg; 5 mg/kg; 10 mg/kg
Administration: i.v.; daily; 28 days
Result: Reduced blood glucose and increased body weight gain significantly in the high-dose group compared to the DN model group.
Reduced kidney index, serum blood urea nitrogen, serum and urine creatinine, and urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio significantly in medium- and high-dose groups compared to the DN model group.
Reduced serum TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and kidney tissue MDA levels significantly, and increased kidney tissue SOD and GSH levels significantly in all dose groups compared to the DN model group, with effects increasing in a dose-dependent manner.
Reduced inflammatory cell infiltration, glomerular enlargement, renal tubular dilation, and renal tubular epithelial cell vacuolation in a dose-dependent manner, with the high-dose group nearing normal tissue morphology.
Increased renal Nrf2 and HO-1 mRNA and protein expression in a dose-dependent manner, with statistically significant elevations compared to the DN model group.

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.
