Methyl syringate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Methyl syringate is a selective TRPA1 agonist. Methyl syringate regulates food intake and gastric emptying through a TRPA1-mediated pathway. Methyl syringate is an efficient phenolic mediator for bacterial and fungal laccases. Methyl syringate is a chemical marker of Asphodel monofloral honey. Methyl syringate contributes to the antibacterial activity of honey. Methyl syringate inhibits aflatoxin production. Methyl syringate can contribute to weight suppression. Methyl syringate can be studies for cancer prevention (e.g. lung cancer), suppression of hypoxia-induced inflammatory response and tumorigenesis.

Biological Activity
TRPA1[3].
Methyl syringate (0.1-1 mM, pretreatment for 1 h then co-treatment under hypoxia for 24 h) effectively blocks hypoxia-induced COX-2 protein expression is a dose dependent manner and inhibits induction of COX-2 mRNA and promoter activity in A549 cells under hypoxic conditions[4].
Methyl syringate (1 mM, 1 h) represses COX-2 and cell migration in HT-1080 cells[4].
Methyl syringate (1-100 μM) inhibits catalytic activity of PTPN2 and PTPN6 with IC50 values of 6.95 and 7.31 μM in E. coli cells overexpressing PTPN2 and PTPN6[5].
Methyl syringate (10-20 μM, 6 h) stimulates the glucose uptake in differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes and C2C12 muscle cells[5].
Methyl syringate (5-20 μM, 6 h) significantly increases AMPK phosphorylation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes at 10 or 20 μM dosage[5].
Methyl syringate (1-20 μM, 6 d) does not affect adipocyte differentiation in differentiated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, indicating it does not induce lipid accumulation[5].

Cell Line:A549 under hypoxic conditions
-
Concentration:1 mM
-
Incubation Time:1 h
-
Result:Inhibited hypoxia-induced COX-2 protein through TRPA1.
Was not affected by Sirt1 enzyme on its inhibition of hypoxia-induced COX-2 protein expression. Was blocked by HC-030031 (HY-15064) (100 μM) on its inhibition of hypoxia-induced COX-2 protein expression under hypoxic conditions.
-
Cell Line:A549 under hypoxic conditions
-
Concentration:1 mM
-
Incubation Time:1 h
-
Result:Decreased A549 migration under hypoxic conditions by approximately 40%.
Blocked by HC-030031 (100 μM) on its inhibition of cell migration, suggesting that its effects on hypoxia-induced migration are mediated by TRPA1.
Decreased hypoxia-enhanced A549 invasion.
Methyl syringate (0.1-10 mg/kg, p.o., one single dose) significantly decreases the food remaining in the stomach 28 h after treatment in male ICR mice [1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
-
Animal Model:Male ICR mice experienced fasting and allowed ad libitum access of food and water[1]
-
Dosage:0.1-10 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral gavage (p.o.)
-
Result:Did not alter the body weight significantly compared to the control.
Delayed gastric emptying dose-dependently with around 70% reduction at 10 mg/kg compared to the control.
Increased plasma PYY levels 15 min after treatment but did not affect GLP-1 levels.

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.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (11.78 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
