DIMBOA is a benzoxazinoid, part of the chemical defense system of graminaceous plants such as maize, wheat, and rye. DIMBOA possess growth inhibitory properties against many strains of studied bacteria and fungi, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli as well as against Saccharomyces cerevisiae. DIMBOA exhibits a potent free-radical scavenging activity and a weaker iron (III) ions reducing activity. Antioxidant activity.

DIMBOA, an antibiotic, has antibacterial properties and inhibits bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and the mycotoxin-producing fungus Fusarium graminearum (which causes scab). DIMBOA exhibits strong free radical scavenging activity and weak iron(III) ion reducing activity, and has antioxidant activity. DIMBOA inhibits the biosynthesis and accumulation of toxic trichothecenes by affecting the expression of Tri6 and Tri5. DIMBOA reduces plant susceptibility to scab. DIMBOA also exhibits cytotoxicity to plant cells, causing plasmolysis, cell collapse, and cell rupture.

Description

DIMBOA, an antibiotic, has antibacterial properties and inhibits bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and the mycotoxin-producing fungus Fusarium graminearum (which causes scab). DIMBOA exhibits strong free radical scavenging activity and weak iron(III) ion reducing activity, and has antioxidant activity. DIMBOA inhibits the biosynthesis and accumulation of toxic trichothecenes by affecting the expression of Tri6 and Tri5. DIMBOA reduces plant susceptibility to scab. DIMBOA also exhibits cytotoxicity to plant cells, causing plasmolysis, cell collapse, and cell rupture[1][2][3][4][5].

In Vitro

DIMBOA (250 μM; 48, 96 h) inhibits trichothecene 15-ADON production in strain JCM 9873, suggesting avoidance of toxic trichothecene accumulation in cereal[5].

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

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    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (11.84 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 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 (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (9.85 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    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.

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.
