Hydroxypropyl Cellulose is an orally active cellulose ether and surfactant. Hydroxypropyl cellulose is divided into high-substituted HPC (HHPC) and low-substituted HPC (LHPC). Hydroxypropyl Cellulose reduces inflammatory mediators (IL-6, IL-1β). Hydroxypropyl Cellulose improves colitis and obesity. Hydroxypropyl Cellulose can be used as a pharmaceutical excipient, such as coating agent, emulsifier, suspension, tablet, thickener, viscosifier.

Description

Hydroxypropyl Cellulose is an orally active cellulose ether and surfactant. Hydroxypropyl cellulose is divided into high-substituted HPC (HHPC) and low-substituted HPC (LHPC). Hydroxypropyl Cellulose reduces inflammatory mediators (IL-6, IL-1β). Hydroxypropyl Cellulose improves colitis and obesity. Hydroxypropyl Cellulose can be used as a pharmaceutical excipient, such as coating agent, emulsifier, suspension, tablet, thickener, viscosifier[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HHPC; 12.5-1600 μg/mL; 24 h) promotes the growth of RAW 264.7 cells and inhibits inflammation[3].

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

In Vivo

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (150-300 mg/kg; p.o.; 8 days) ameliorates DSS-induced colitis in Balb/c mice[3].
Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (6% in diet; p.o.; 5 weeks) ameliorates the effects of a high-fat diet on intestinal permeability, insulin resistance, hepatic lipid accumulation, glucocorticoid related bile acid recycling, oxidative stress, and weight gain in DIO mice[4].

Animal Model: Balb/c male mice (DSS-induced colitis model)[3]
Dosage: 150 mg/kg, 300 mg/kg (suspended in water)
Administration: Oral administration, 8 days
Result: Mitigated the pathological damage of colon tissue.
Suppressed spleen edema, preserved thymus index, reduced the serum level of inflammatory mediators (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, and MPO).
Increased the secretion of sIgA in the colon, and restored the balance of the intestinal flora.

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.
