Description

Juglone (5-hydroxy-1,4-naphthalenedione) is a yellow dye that can be extracted from Juglans regia. Juglone induces apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway. Juglone has antibacterial and antitumor activity [1][2][3].

In Vitro

Juglone (0-500 μg/mL, 15 h) shows significant antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, with MIC values ranging from 64-512 μg/mL[1].
Juglone(5-20 μM, 24 h) induces apoptosis of SGC-7901 cells through the mitochondrial pathway mediated by ROS production and the decrease of Bcl-2/Bax ratio[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Cytotoxicity Assay [2]

Cell Line: SGC-7901
Concentration: 5, 10, 15, 20 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Inhibited cell growth in a dose-dependent manner.

Apoptosis Analysis [2]

Cell Line: SGC-7901
Concentration: 5, 10, 15, 20 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Increased the number of early apoptotic cells.

Western Blot Analysis [2]

Cell Line: SGC-7901
Concentration: 5, 10, 15, 20 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Decreased the expression of Bcl-2 and increased the Bax protein.
In Vivo

Juglone (0.25 or 1 mg/kg, oral, 70 days) prevents metabolic endotoxemia-nduced hepatitis and neuroinflammation by inhibiting TLR4/NF-kB signaling pathway in high-fat diet rats[3].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: High-fat diet rats model[3]
Dosage: 0.25 or 1 mg/kg
Administration: p.o. for 70 days
Result: Regulated the expression of s TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6.
Inhibited the TLR4 expression and NF-kappa activity.

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.
