Isorhapontigenin is an orally active dietary polyphenol. Isorhapontigenin acts as a potent antioxidant that reduces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Isorhapontigenin promotes the binding of JUN to the AP-1 site on the SESN2 promoter, induces SESN2 transcription, triggers MAPK8-dependent JUN activation, and upregulates the expression of PPAR-α, PGC-1α and CPT-1A to facilitate fatty acid oxidation. Isorhapontigenin induces autophagy, apoptosis and preadipocyte differentiation; it inhibits tumor growth, cell invasion, NF-κB transcriptional activity, the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, STAT1 phosphorylation and MMP-2 expression. Isorhapontigenin alleviates oxidative stress, inflammatory cytokine release and triglyceride accumulation; it increases intracellular ATP levels and promotes Nrf2 nuclear translocation. Isorhapontigenin improves insulin sensitivity in adipose tissue and glucose tolerance, and reduces postprandial blood glucose, insulin and free fatty acid levels. Isorhapontigenin is applicable to research on bladder cancer, liver injury, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, acute lung injury and type 2 diabetes.

Isorhapontigenin (1.25-40 μM; 24 h) induces autophagy in a dose-dependent manner in UMUC3, T24T, and HeLa cells, and this autophagy contributes to its inhibition of anchorage-independent growth of UMUC3 cells[1]. Isorhapontigenin (2.5-10 μM; 12-24 h) increases SESN2 transcription via a JUN-dependent mechanism, which is required for autophagy induction and inhibition of anchorage-independent growth in UMUC3 cells[1]. Isorhapontigenin (10 μM; 12 h pre-APAP treatment, 24 h post-APAP treatment) attenuates APAP-induced FAO dysregulation in AML12 cells by upregulating PPAR-α/PGC-1α/CPT-1A signaling[2]. Isorhapontigenin (1-100 μM; 1 h pre-incubation + 24 h stimulation, 1 h pre-incubation + 10-60 min stimulation) inhibits IL-6 and CXCL8 release from primary human airway epithelial cells and A549 cells, with IC50 values for IL-6 of 17.3-19.7 μM, and suppresses NF-κB, AP-1, and PI3K/Akt/FoxO3A signaling pathways[3]. Isorhapontigenin (1-100 μM; 1 h pre-incubation + 30 min stimulation) concentration-dependently reduces intracellular ROS levels in IL-1β-stimulated A549 cells[3]. Isorhapontigenin (5-15 μM; 12 h pretreatment + 12 h LPS stimulation) exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects on LPS-challenged RAW264.7 cells by reducing pro-inflammatory mediator and ROS production[4]. Isorhapontigenin (15 μM; 0-24 h direct treatment, 12 h pretreatment + 12 h LPS stimulation) activates the Nrf2 pathway in RAW264.7 cells, and its anti-inflammatory/antioxidant effects depend on Nrf2 activation[4]. Isorhapontigenin (25 μM; 6 days) promotes adipocyte differentiation, enhances insulin sensitivity, and reduces lipolysis in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes by increasing PPARγ activity and expression[5]. Isorhapontigenin (25 μM; 0-12 h) increases PPARγ activity and stability in 3T3-L1 cells by reducing inhibitory phosphorylation and decelerating proteasomal degradation[5]. Isorhapontigenin (10-20 μM; 24 h) specifically inhibits invasion of UMUC3 and T24T human invasive bladder cancer cells, respectively, without affecting migration[6]. Isorhapontigenin (2.5-20 μM; 6-18 h) induces dose- and time-dependent upregulation of FOXO1 protein expression in UMUC3 and T24T human invasive bladder cancer cells[6]. Isorhapontigenin (2.5-20 μM; 3-9 h) upregulates foxo1mRNA expression at the transcriptional level in UMUC3 and T24T human invasive bladder cancer cells[6]. Isorhapontigenin (10 μM; 6-18 h) enhances FOXO1 promoter activity in a time-dependent manner in UMUC3 human invasive bladder cancer cells[6]. Isorhapontigenin (2.5-10 μM; 12 h) inhibits STAT1 phosphorylation at Tyr701 in a dose-dependent manner in UMUC3 human invasive bladder cancer cells[6]. Isorhapontigenin (2.5-20 μM; 18 h) inhibits dose-dependent MMP-2 protein expression in UMUC3 and T24T human invasive bladder cancer cells[6].

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.
