Description

Benzyl alcohol is an aromatic alcohol, a colorless liquid with a mild aromatic odor. Benzyl alcohol is an inhibitor of P450 enzyme. Benzyl alcohol mediated Toll-Like Receptor 4 to reduce the inflammatory response of liver injury in mice[1][2][3].

In Vitro

Benzyl alcohol (10-80 mM) regulates cyclic AMP synthesis in MDCK cells by increasing the membrane fluidity of intact renal epithelial cells[1].
Benzyl alcohol (0-46 mM, 48 h) inhibits the hepatotoxicity of APAP by inhibiting cytochrome P450 enzyme activity in the primary liver of mice[2].

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

In Vivo

Benzyl alcohol (270 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection, 0.5-24 h) can reduce the liver injury induced by acetaminophen[2].
Benzyl alcohol (270 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection, 3-24 h) decreases inflammasome activation in a TLR4-dependent manner[3].

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

Animal Model: APAP-induced liver injury model in mice[2]
Dosage: 270 mg/kg
Administration: i.p.
Result: Attenuated the increase in ALT activities and reduced areas of necrosis at both 6 h and 24 h.
Reduced APAP metabolic activation and parameters of oxidant stress.
Reduced APAP-induced mitochondrial dysfunction.

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% EtOH    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (23.12 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 EtOH 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% EtOH    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (23.12 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 EtOH stock solution (25.0 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.

For the following dissolution methods, please prepare the working solution directly. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions and use them promptly within a short period of time.
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.

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.
