Fluorene
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Fluorene is an orally active polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and a precursor to other fluorene-based compounds. Fluorene and its derivatives serve as dye precursors for fluorene synthesis. In A549 cells, Fluorene induces oxidative stress and inflammatory responses by increasing ROS and SOD generation, exacerbating lipid peroxidation, modulating antioxidant enzyme activity, and upregulating the expression of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6. In vivo, Fluorene exhibits anxiolytic activity. Fluorene holds potential for research in inflammation and neurological disorders.

Fluorene (200-800 μM, 24-48 hours) induces oxidative stress and inflammation in A549 cells, characterized by increased ROS generation, enhanced lipid peroxidation, altered antioxidant enzyme activity, and upregulated TNF-α and IL-6 expression[2].

Cell Line:A549 human lung epithelial cells (lung injury)
-
Concentration:200, 400, 600, 800 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 hours, 48 hours
-
Result:Upregulated TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA and protein expression levels. Additionally, SP-A expression increased in Fluorene-treated groups (400 and 600 μM) but decreased in the PAH mixture-treated group (600 μM).

Animal Model:Fluorene oral or intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration-induced body weight and organ changes in Wistar rats[1]
-
Dosage:1, 10, 100 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral gavage (p.o.) or intraperitoneal injection (i.p.), once daily for 60 days
-
Result:Exhibited significantly reduced weight gain after 28 days and increased relative liver weight (The 100 mg/kg group). Additionally, higher concentrations of Fluorene and its hydroxylated metabolites were detected in the blood and brain of i.p.-treated rats compared to p.o.-treated ones. Reduced anxiety levels in rats (1, 10 mg/kg), while the high dose (100 mg/kg) showed no significant changes. No effects on locomotor activity or learning ability were observed.
