Cromolyn  (Synonyms: Cromoglycate; Cromoglicic acid; FPL-670 free acid)

Cat. No.: HY-B1619 Purity: 99.91%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Cromolyn (Cromoglycate) is an orally active GSK-3β inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.0 μM. Cromolyn is also a mast cell stabilizer that can inhibit the release of mediators from mast cells, regulate reflex bronchoconstriction, and reduce non-specific bronchial hyperreactivity, and Cromolyn can be used in the research of bronchial asthma. In addition, Cromolyn has multiple activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, anti-histamine, anti-cancer, and neuroprotective effects.

    Description

    Cromolyn (Cromoglycate) is an orally active GSK-3β inhibitor with an IC50 of 2.0 μM. Cromolyn is also a mast cell stabilizer that can inhibit the release of mediators from mast cells, regulate reflex bronchoconstriction, and reduce non-specific bronchial hyperreactivity, and Cromolyn can be used in the research of bronchial asthma. In addition, Cromolyn has multiple activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, anti-histamine, anti-cancer, and neuroprotective effects[1][2][3][4][5].

    In Vitro

    Cromolyn (0-100 μM; 3-10 min) can inhibit IgE- and antigen-induced degranulation and PGD2 synthesis in rat peritoneal mast cells[1].
    Cromolyn (0-100 μM; 0-72 h) can block S100P-promoted cell proliferation, invasion, and increased NF-κB activity in Panc-1 cells[2].

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

    In Vivo

    Cromolyn (10 mg/kg; intravenous injection; single dose) can significantly inhibit mast cell activation in IgE-dependent PCA by reducing Evans blue extravasation and completely inhibit antigen-induced plasma histamine increase in PSA in rats[1].
    Cromolyn (5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; 5 weeks) has anti-tumor activity in a mouse model of pancreatic cancer[2].
    Cromolyn (6.3 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; 5 times a week; from postnatal day 60 until euthanasia) has an ameliorative effect in a model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis[3].
    Cromolyn (1-3.15 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; 3 times a week; 12 weeks) has a neuroprotective effect in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease[4].
    Cromolyn (1.43-5.72 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; 1 month) has a hypoglycemic effect in mice[5].

    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.
