Murrayafoline A is a carbazole alkaloid that can be extracted from Murraya tetramera. Murrayafoline A directly targets Specificity protein 1 (Sp1), thereby inhibiting NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. Murrayafoline a induces a G0/G1-phase arrest in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells. Murrayafoline A attenuates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by promoting the degradation of intracellular β-catenin proteins. Murrayafoline A enhances the contraction of rat ventricular myocytes and L-type calcium current by activating protein kinase C. Murrayafoline A inhibits LPS (HY-D1056)-induced neuroinflammation in vivo. Murrayafoline A can be used for the study of inflammation, vascular complications and colon cancer.

Description

Murrayafoline A is a carbazole alkaloid that can be extracted from Murraya tetramera. Murrayafoline A directly targets Specificity protein 1 (Sp1), thereby inhibiting NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. Murrayafoline a induces a G0/G1-phase arrest in platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells. Murrayafoline A attenuates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by promoting the degradation of intracellular β-catenin proteins. Murrayafoline A enhances the contraction of rat ventricular myocytes and L-type calcium current by activating protein kinase C. Murrayafoline A inhibits LPS (HY-D1056)-induced neuroinflammation in vivo. Murrayafoline A can be used for the study of inflammation, vascular complications and colon cancer[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Murrayafoline A (5-20 μM, 24 h) potently inhibits the production of neuroinflammation mediators, such as nitric oxide (NO), TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in LPS (HY-D1056)-induced BV-2 microglial cells, an effect that can be significantly antagonized by Sp1 knockdown[1].
Murrayafoline A (20 μM, 2 h) directly interacts with Sp1, as confirmed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) with a dissociation constant (KD) of 11.34 pM in BV-2 cells[1].
Murrayafoline A (20 μM) inhibits IKKβ/NF-κB and p38/JNK MAPKs pathways that can be markedly reversed by Sp1 knockdown in LPS-induced BV-2 cells[1].
Murrayafoline A (1-5 μM, 24 h) inhibits PDGF-BB-stimulated proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), DNA synthesis and induces a G0/G1-phase arrest[2].
Murrayafoline A (1-5 μM) down-regulates the expression of cyclin D1, cyclin E, CDK2, CDK4, and PCNA, and inhibits the phosphorylation of pRb in PDGF-BB-stimulated VSMCs[2].
Murrayafoline A (5-40 μM, 15 h) dose-dependently reduces LiCl- and Wnt3a-CM-induced TOPFlash reporter activity and SEAP activity in HEK293 reporter cells without affecting FOPFlash activity[3].
Murrayafoline A (20-40 μM, 15 h) decreases cytosolic β-catenin level in LiCl- and Wnt3a-CM-treated HEK293 reporter cells[3].
Murrayafoline A (10-80 μM, 15-48 h) reduces cytosolic β-catenin level, cyclin D1 and c-myc levels in SW480 and HCT-116 colon cancer cells and dose-dependently inhibits the proliferation of SW480, DLD-1, HCT-116 and LS174T colon cancer cells[3].
Murrayafoline A (25 μM, 2 min) increases cell shortening, increases L-type Ca2+ current, enhances PKC phosphorylation and enhances the rate of contraction in rat ventricular myocytes[4].

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

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (11.83 mM); Clear 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.
