Scytonemin is a hydrophobic alkaloid pigment that can be isolated from the outer sheath of cyanobacteria. Scytonemin has protective function against short-wave solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can reduce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the formation of DNA damage. Scytonemin also has anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities, produces concentration-dependent inhibition (IC50=2.0 μM) of polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1)-mediated cdc25C phosphorylation, and plays an important role in regulating the G2/M transition in the cell cycle. It can be used in the research of cancer, acute inflammation and sunscreen cosmetics.

Descripciòn

Scytonemin is a hydrophobic alkaloid pigment that can be isolated from the outer sheath of cyanobacteria. Scytonemin has protective function against short-wave solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can reduce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the formation of DNA damage. Scytonemin also has anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative activities, produces concentration-dependent inhibition (IC50=2.0 μM) of polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1)-mediated cdc25C phosphorylation, and plays an important role in regulating the G2/M transition in the cell cycle. It can be used in the research of cancer, acute inflammation and sunscreen cosmetics[1][2][3][4][5].

In Vitro

Scytonemin (3 μM; 24 h) inhibits the proliferation of human T-cell leukemia Jurkat cells (IC50= 7.8 μM) and induces apoptosis[4].
Scytonemin (100 nM-30 μM) has an inhibitory effect on PDGF-induced RSF and ECGF-induced HUVEC proliferation (IC50=1.5 μM; IC50=5.4 μM) [4].

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

Cell Viability Assay[4]

Cell Line: human T-cell leukemia Jurkat cells
Concentration: 3 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Induced 24% of cells to undergo apoptosis.
In Vivo

Scytonemin has a highly effective inhibitory effect (ED50=10 mg/kg) on Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (HY-18739) induced ear inflammation in mice when administered parenterally[3].

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.
