Cat. No.: HY-W750654
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Adonixanthin ( (3S,3'R)-Adonixanthin), a carotenoid, is an orally active anti-oxidative and anti-carcinogenic agent. Adonixanthin shows an ability to suppress cell proliferation and migration in three types of glioblastoma cells Adonixanthin exerts cytoprotective effects against various types of damage and inhibits the increased production of ROS. Adonixanthin protects against light-induced cell damage through not only an anti-oxidative response but also through Nrf2 activation. Adonixanthin suppresses glioblastoma progression and adonixanthin improves blood-brain barrier hyper-permeability in an autologous blood ICH model. Adonixanthin can be used for the study of glioblastoma (GBM) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).

Description

Adonixanthin ( (3S,3'R)-Adonixanthin), a carotenoid, is an orally active anti-oxidative and anti-carcinogenic agent. Adonixanthin shows an ability to suppress cell proliferation and migration in three types of glioblastoma cells Adonixanthin exerts cytoprotective effects against various types of damage and inhibits the increased production of ROS. Adonixanthin protects against light-induced cell damage through not only an anti-oxidative response but also through Nrf2 activation. Adonixanthin suppresses glioblastoma progression and adonixanthin improves blood-brain barrier hyper-permeability in an autologous blood ICH model. Adonixanthin can be used for the study of glioblastoma (GBM) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)[1].

In Vitro

Adonixanthin (0.1-10 μM, 96 h) inhibits the proliferation of murine glioblastoma cell line GL261 and human glioblastoma cell line U251MG[1].
Adonixanthin (10 μM, 72 h) reduces the proportion of BrdU-positive cells in GL261 cells[1].
Adonixanthin (10 μM, 48 h) suppresses the migration of GL261 and U251MG cells[1].
Adonixanthin (10 μM, 6 h) decreases the phosphorylation levels of p-ERK1/2 and p-Akt in GL261 cells[1].
Adonixanthin (10 μM, 6-48 h) increases p-p38 phosphorylation, reduces cyclin D1 expression, increases p27 expression, and decreases the expression of MMP-2, Nox4 and fibronectin in GL261 cells, with no significant effect on MMP-9[1].
Adonixanthin (0.1-1 µM, 4 h) significantly reduces hemoglobin-induced cell death and ROS production in human brain endothelial cells (HBMVECs), and upregulates HO-1 and VE-cadherin levels[2].
Adonixanthin (0.1-1 µM, 28 h) significantly decreases collagenase-induced cell death in HBMVECs, inhibits ERK1/2 phosphorylation, and upregulates VE-cadherin levels[2].
Adonixanthin (0.1-1 µM, 25 h) concentration-dependently reduces H₂O₂-induced and LPS-induced cell death in SH-SY5Y cells[2].
Adonixanthin inhibits the activation of Epstein-Barr virus early antigen in Raji cells at concentrations resulting in an IC50 of 329 in molar ratio/Hyptadienic acid (TPA) (HY-N4024) without significant cytotoxicity[3].
Adonixanthin (167 μM) inhibits AMVN-induced methyl linolate peroxidation[3].
Adonixanthin (1-100 μM) shows singlet oxygen quenching activity in the methylene blue-sensitized photooxidation system in ethanol, with an IC50 of 11.1 μM[3].
Adonixanthin (20 μM, 6 h) upregulates the mRNA expression of Nrf2-controlled genes and increases Nrf2 in the nucleus in 661 W cells[4].
Adonixanthin (10 μM) protects against light-induced cell death and reduces ROS production induced by light exposure in 661 W cells, which is canceled by Nrf2 silencing[4].

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.
