Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Thalifoline (3-6 days) shows no cytotoxic activity against P-388 cells in vitro (ED50 >50 μg/mL), but exhibits significant cytotoxic activity against KB16 (ED50 = 0.885 μg/mL), A549 (ED50 = 1.481 μg/mL) and HT-29 (ED50 = 1.745 μg/mL) cell lines[1].
Thalifoline (100 μg) inhibits the growth of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici[2].

Protocols

Cell Viability Determination by MTT Colorimetric Assay
The following protocol uses the MTT colorimetric assay as a classic literature-established method for assessing cell viability/metabolic activity in cultured mammalian cells. MTT[3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] is reduced by metabolically active cells to a colored formazan product; the amount of formazan is quantified spectrophotometrically and provides an indirect measure of metabolically active viable cells. Importantly, MTT reduction reflects cellular oxidoreductase/metabolic activity rather than an absolute direct count of living cells, so changes in cellular metabolism can alter the signal independently of cell number.
