Swertiajaponin
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Swertiajaponin is a tyrosinase inhibitor, forms multiple hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with the binding pocket of tyrosinase, with an IC50 of 43.47 μM. Swertiajaponin also inhibits oxidative stress-mediated MAPK/MITF signaling, leading to decrease in tyrosinase protein level. Swertiajaponin suppresses melanin accumulation and exhibits strong anti-oxidative activity.

Biological Activity
IC50: 43.47 μM (tyrosinase)[1]
Swertiajaponin (2-20 μM, 48 h) shows no cytotoxicity in vitro[1].
Swertiajaponin inhibits melanogenesis in human skin model (10-20 μM, 5 days) and UVB or αMSH-induced melanogenesis in B16F10 cells (2-10 μM, 49 h) in dose-dependent manner[1].
Swertiajaponin (2-10 μM, pretreated for 1 h and then UVB exposure for 30 min) decreases ROS and ONOO- in concentration-dependent manner[1].
Swertiajaponin (2-10 μM, 7 or 49 h) inhibits UVB-induced MAPK activation[1].

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: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (2.70 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 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)
Solubility: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (2.70 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (12.5 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
