Description

Visnagin, an antioxidant furanocoumarin derivative, possess anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Visnagin has substantial potential to prevent Cerulein induced acute pancreatitis (AP). Visnagin possess promising vasodilator effects in vascular smooth muscles[1][2].

In Vitro

Visnagin (10 µM; for 4, 8, 16, 24 h) induces CYP1A1 transcription in HepG2 cells[1].
Visnagin (10 µM; for 16 h) elevates CYP1B1 gene expression in an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR)-dependent manner, whereas MNF (3’-methoxy-4’-nitroflavone; 20 µM; pre-treated for 1 h) successfully counteracted this induction. Visnagin also enhances PAI-2 transcription in an AHR-dependent manner[1].

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

In Vivo

Visnagin (10, 30, 60 mg/kg; ip; for 7 days) is effective in reducing plasma amylase and lipase levels and reduces Cerulein (50 μg/kg, six, hourly i.p. injections) induced oxidative stress in male Swiss albino mice (age: 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g)[1].
Visnagin dose dependently decreases the expression of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and IL-17. It attenuates the levels of nuclear p65-NFκB. Visnagin improves the antioxidant defence by improving Nrf2 expression and halts pancreatic inflammation by suppressing NFκB and nitrotyrosine expression in the acinar cells[1].

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.86 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.

The concentration of the stock solution you require exceeds the measured solubility. The following solution is for reference only. If necessary, please contact MedChemExpress (MCE).
Method for preparing in vivo working solution for animal experiments: Take μL DMSO stock solution, add μL . μL , mix evenly, next add μL Tween 80, mix evenly, then add μL Saline.
 If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.

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.
