Gambogin

Gambogin is an α-glucosidase inhibitor, found in the resin and dry latex of Garcinia hanburyi. Gambogin exists as an inseparable diastereomeric pair of C-2 epimers (8a and 8b), with 8a having an α-glucosidase inhibitory IC₅₀ of 209.2 μM and 8b showing α-glucosidase inhibitory IC₅₀ > 300 μM. Gambogin can be used for the research of type 2 diabetes and cervical cancer.

α‑glucosidase

209.2 μM (IC₅₀)

In Vitro

Gambogin (Compound 8) isomer 8a (20 min) modestly inhibits Saccharomyces cerevisiae α-glucosidase with an IC₅₀ of 209.2 μM, while gambogin isomer 8b shows no inhibitory activity at concentrations up to 300 μM^[1].
Gambogin (24 h) potently inhibits the growth of cultured HeLa and HEL #17 cells, with minimum inhibitory concentration values of 6.25 μg/mL and 3.13 μg/mL, respectively^[2].

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
