  3. (Rac)-Hesperetin

(Rac)-Hesperetin is the racemate of Hesperetin (HY-N0168), an orally active multi-target inhibitor. (Rac)-Hesperetin exhibits significant anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory activities by blocking the TGF-β1-mediated Fyn/RhoA signaling axis and the TLR4-MyD88-NF-κB inflammatory pathway. (Rac)-Hesperetin inhibits the formation of actin stress fibers and the migration and invasion of cancer cells, and is suitable for triple-negative breast cancer research. In inflammation models, (Rac)-Hesperetin effectively alleviates lung injury by reducing the release of pro-inflammatory mediators and regulating the activity of oxidative stress enzymes, and is suitable for acute lung injury research. (Rac)-Hesperetin also interferes with the entry and early replication processes of channel catfish virus, inhibits viral gene expression and progeny virus production, thereby protecting cells from virus-induced cytopathic effects.

Description

(Rac)-Hesperetin is the racemate of Hesperetin (HY-N0168), an orally active multi-target inhibitor. (Rac)-Hesperetin exhibits significant anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory activities by blocking the TGF-β1-mediated Fyn/RhoA signaling axis and the TLR4-MyD88-NF-κB inflammatory pathway. (Rac)-Hesperetin inhibits the formation of actin stress fibers and the migration and invasion of cancer cells, and is suitable for triple-negative breast cancer research. In inflammation models, (Rac)-Hesperetin effectively alleviates lung injury by reducing the release of pro-inflammatory mediators and regulating the activity of oxidative stress enzymes, and is suitable for acute lung injury research. (Rac)-Hesperetin also interferes with the entry and early replication processes of channel catfish virus, inhibits viral gene expression and progeny virus production, thereby protecting cells from virus-induced cytopathic effects[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Hesperetin (25, 50, 100 μM; 0, 24, 48, 72 h) significantly inhibits the migratory capacity of TGF-β1-induced human triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner[1].
Hesperetin (500 μg/mL; 36 h) significantly inhibits the expression of ORF39 and ORF59 proteins of CCV, completely alleviates the cytopathic effect on CCO cells induced by CCV infection, and exerts a cytoprotective effect[2].

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: Human triple-negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells
Concentration: 25, 50, 100 μM
Incubation Time: 24, 48, 72 h
Result: Significantly inhibited TGF-β1-induced migration of MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after treatment.
In Vivo

Hesperetin (10-30 mg/kg; intragastric administration; single dose; administered 1 h after lipopolysaccharide modeling) significantly reduces the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α as well as the number of inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, alleviates lung tissue injury, decreases the lung wet/dry weight ratio, downregulates the activities of myeloperoxidase and lactate dehydrogenase, and enhances the activity of superoxide dismutase in a lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury model of male C57 mice[3].

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

Animal Model: C57 male mice (8 weeks old, 18-22 g) with LPS-induced acute lung injury[3]
Dosage: Hesperetin: 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg , 30 mg/kg ;
Positive control: 2 mg/kg Dexamethasone (oral gavage)
Administration: oral gavage
Result: At 1 h after LPS intratracheal instillation, significantly suppressed the levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, reduced the number of inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, ameliorated LPS-induced histopathologic changes of lung tissue and decreased lung inflammatory scores.
Reduced the lung wet/dry weight ratio, lowered the activities of myeloperoxidase and lactate dehydrogenase in lung tissue, enhanced superoxide dismutase activity, and downregulated the protein expression of Toll-like receptor 4 and myeloid differentiation factor 88 in lung tissue.
Suppressed the phosphorylation of nuclear factor-κB p65, IκB-α and TAK1, and inhibited the activation of nuclear factor-κB pathway in lung tissue, with the 30 mg/kg dosage showing the most significant therapeutic effect.

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.88 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

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.
