Artepillin C is an orally active CREB/CRTC2 inhibitor and TRPA1 covalent agonist (EC50=1.8 μM). Artepillin C inhibits CREB/CRTC2-mediated gene transcription and downregulates BMAL1 expression to regulate glucose and lipid metabolism. Artepillin C can also activate TRPA1 channels to induce spicy taste signals. Artepillin C can inhibit tumor cell proliferation, induce necroptosis, improve insulin resistance and inhibit liver lipid synthesis. Artepillin C can be used in the study of metabolic syndrome, tumor prevention and treatment, and inflammation.

In Vitro

Artepillin C (1 μM-1 mM; 12-48 h) inhibits the viability of HEp-2 tumor cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner, with a CC50 of 4.07 μM-0.9 μM[1].
Artepillin C (1-0.5 μM; 24 h) induces HEp-2 cell necrosis and significantly increases cell membrane permeability[1].
Artepillin C (1 μM; 30 min; pH 3.2) enhances the membrane permeability of DPPS-containing macropinosomes (GUVs) and significantly accelerates the efflux of fluorescent probes[1].
Artepillin C (3.13-50 μg/mL; 36 h) inhibits HUVEC cell tube formation in a concentration-dependent manner, and completely inhibits it at 50 μg/mL[2].
Artepillin C (3.13-50 μg/mL; 3 d) inhibits HUVEC cell proliferation with an IC50 of approximately 37.2 μg/mL[2].

Apoptosis Analysis[1]

Cell Line: HEp-2 cells
Concentration: 0.01 mM, 0.05 mM, 0.1 mM, 0.5 mM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Increased propidium iodide (PI)-positive cells, indicating membrane permeabilization and necrosis.
Morphological changes included cell swelling and granular nuclei, characteristic of necrotic cell death, without significant apoptosis induction.
In Vivo

Artepillin C (0.125%-0.5% diet; po; once a day; 6 days) inhibits tumor-induced angiogenesis in the mouse dorsal air sac tumor model and reduces the number of blood vessels in a dose-dependent manner[2].
Artepillin C (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once a day; 1-3 weeks) significantly improves glucose homeostasis, reduces fasting blood glucose and insulin resistance, inhibits hepatic BMAL1 expression and lipid synthesis-related genes, and reduces hepatic lipid accumulation in db/db obese mice[4].
Artepillin C (20 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; once a day; 3 weeks) improves insulin sensitivity, reduces hepatic gluconeogenesis and lipid synthesis, and regulates the expression of the circadian rhythm-related gene Bmal1 in DIO mice fed a high-fat diet[4].

Animal Model: ICR mice (female, 30±5 g, 7-week-old), dorsal air sac (DAS) tumor angiogenesis model[2]
Dosage: 0.125%, 0.25%, 0.5% (w/w in diet)
Administration: Oral administration via diet, once daily, 6 days starting from chamber implantation
Result: Significantly reduced tumor-induced angiogenesis in a dose-dependent manner.
No signs of toxicity were observed, with stable body weight throughout the treatment period.
Histological analysis confirmed reduced vascular density in the treated groups, indicating anti-angiogenic activity without systemic toxicity.

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.
