In Vitro

Salvinorin A (Divinorin A)(0.01-10 pM; pre-30 minues; 24 hours) does not affect the membrane function after 24-h exposure in macrophages[1].
Salvinorin A (Divinorin A) (0.01-10 pM; pre-30 minues; 18 hours) before LPS stimulation causes a significant and concentrationdependent manner reduction of LPS-stimulated nitrite levels, the IC50 (95% CL) of salvinorin A inhibitory effect was 6.5×10−13M[1].
Salvinorin A (Divinorin A) (0.01-10 pM; pre-30 minues; 18 hours) incubates 30 min before LPS stimulation, reduces in concentration-dependent manner the LPSinduced iNOS, but not COX-2, hyperexpression, reaching a statistical significance at the 10 pM concentration[1].

In Vivo

Salvinorin A (intraperitoneal injection; 0.5-2 mg/kg; pre-treatment 30 minutes) at the 0.5 mg/kg dose is the most effective one, at the dose of 0.5 mg/kg, significantly inhibits oedema during the first 6 h; at the dose of 1 mg/kg, salvinorin A significantly reduces the oedema only 4 h after carrageenan injection; at the highest doses tested (2 mg/kg), salvinorin A fails to evoke significant changes on the carrageenan-induced paw oedema[1].

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.
