    Description

    Psoralidin is a dual inhibitor of COX-2 and 5-LOX, regulates ionizing radiation (IR)-induced pulmonary inflammation.Anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties[1]. Psoralidin significantly downregulates NOTCH1 signaling. Psoralidin also greatly induces ROS generation[2].

    IC50 & Target[1]

    COX-2

     

    5-LOX

     

    In Vitro

    Three breast cancer cell (BCC)populations (ALDH- cells, ALDH+ cells, and commercial BSCSs) are sensitive to Psoralidin treatment (10, 15, 20, and 25 μM; 24 hours) with IC50s ranging from 18 to 21 μM; however, the MCF-12A cells were resistant to Psoralidin[2].
    Psoralidin (30 μM; 24 hours) results in a significant induction of apoptosis for ALDH- cells, ALDH+ cells, and commercial BCSCs[2].
    Psoralidin treatment also downregulates NOTCH1 expression in both ALDH- and ALDH+ cells[2].

    Cell Viability Assay[2]

    Cell Line: ALDH- cells, ALDH+ cells, commercial breast cancer stem cells (BSCSs), and normal breast epithelial cells (MCF-12A)
    Concentration: 10, 15, 50, and 25 μM
    Incubation Time: 24 hours
    Result: IC50s of 18 to 21 μM for ALDH- cells, ALDH+ cells, commercial BCSCs.

    Apoptosis Analysis[2]

    Cell Line: ALDH- cells, ALDH+ cells, and commercial BCSCs
    Concentration: 20 and 30 μM
    Incubation Time: 24 hours
    Result: No significant induction of apoptosis was observed for any of the three cell types following treatment at 20 μM. However, 53.60%, 44.1%, and 45.9% of cells were apoptotic at 30 μMin ALDH- cells, ALDH+ cells, and commercial BCSCs, respectively.

    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: 2.08 mg/mL (6.18 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

      This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.08 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 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% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

      Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.18 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

    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.
