Handling Instructions Technical Support

Cycloartenyl ferulate (Cycloartenol ferulate; Cycloartenol ferulic acid ester) is a derivative of γ-oryzanol (HY-B2194) with multiple biological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-tumor properties. Cycloartenyl ferulate selectively binds to IFNγR1 (binding affinity Kd = 0.5 μM) to activate the canonical JAK1/2-STAT1 signaling pathway. Cycloartenyl ferulate inhibits paraquat (PQ)-triggered apoptosis and ROS in HK2 cells. Cycloartenyl ferulate enhances the activation and cytolytic activity of natural killer (NK) cells by upregulating the expression of NK cell activation receptors (NKG2D, NKp30, NKp44) and the release of cytotoxic molecules and cytokine IFNγ. Cycloartenyl ferulate exerts anti-cancer effects in tumor mice models. Cycloartenyl ferulate can be used for the study of cancer and allergic inflammation intervention.

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.
