Description

α-Phellandrene (alpha-Phellandrene) is an orally active monoterpenoid and insecticide. α-Phellandrene can be isolated from plant essential oils. α-Phellandrene induces Apoptosis and Autophagy. α-Phellandrene promotes cAMP signaling pathway and increases NO production. α-Phellandrene has anti-inflammatory and anticancer (sarcoma) activities. α-Phellandrene shows insecticidal activity against Lucilia cuprina L3. α-Phellandrene reduces mechanical hyperalgesia[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11].

In Vitro

α-Phellandrene (10-200 μM; 16 h) significantly enhances the proliferation and migration of L929 fibroblasts in a dose-dependent manner[1].
α‑Phellandrene (50-250 μM; 72 h) enhances the apoptosis of HT‑29 cells induced by 5‑fluorouracil (HY-90006) by modulating the mitochondria‑dependent pathway[2].
α-Phellandrene (30 μM; 24 h) significantly increases the necrotic cell number, NO production, LDH leakage and ATP depletion in J5 cells[3].
α-Phellandrene (10 μM; 48 h) alters expression of genes associated with DNA damage, cell cycle, and apoptosis in murine leukemia WEHI-3 cells[4].
α-Phellandrene (12.5 μM; 48 h) promotes dermal papilla cell proliferation via promoting cAMP signaling pathway[5].

α-Phellandrene (0.29-1.47 μL/cm2) inhibits the emergence of adult Lucilia cuprina L3 larvae, causes damage to the larval body surface and induces histological changes in target organs such as the digestive tract, fat body, and brain of the larvae[7].

α-Phellandrene (6.25-50 mg/kg; p.o.; acute assay starts on day 8 after inoculation with S-180; the early regimen is once daily for 8 days; subacute experiment begins on the 17th day) inhibits tumor growth in mice inoculated with Sarcoma 180 cells, reduces mechanical hyperalgesia, decreases direct (peritumoral tissue in the subaxillary region) and indirect (right leg) mechanical nociception[9].
α-Phellandrene (6.25-100 mg/kg; i.p.; 30 min before the administration of Ifosfamide) attenuates tissular damage, oxidative stress, and TNF-α levels on acute model Ifosfamide (HY-17419)-induced hemorrhagic cystitis in mice[10].
α-Phellandrene (50-200 mg/kg; p.o.; 1 h before subsequent experiments) attenuates inflammatory response through neutrophil migration inhibition and mast cell degranulation in Wistar rats or Swiss mice[11].

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    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (18.35 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (18.35 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.

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.
