Product Description

Curcumol is a selective, potent, naturally occuring and pure monomer isolated from Rhizoma Curcumaeis with potential antitumor activities. It shows potent in vitro antiproliferative activity and high in vivo antitumor efficacy.vAs an inducer of apoptosis, curcumol induced cell death in human lung adenocarcinoma (ASTC-a-1) cells by inducing G(2)/M phase arrest, nuclear fragmentation, phosphatidylserine externalization and a rapid translocation of Bax from cytosol into mitochondria. Curcumol also benefits rheumatoid arthritis treatment through suppressing the fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) proliferation and DNA synthesis.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
The principal substance isolated from turmeric root is called curcumin ((-)-Curcumol). By downregulating CDKL3, curcumin inhibits the growth of cholangiocarcinoma cells [2]. Curcumin uses reactive oxygen species and the Akt/GSK3β/cyclin D1 pathway to cause cell cycle arrest in colon cancer cells [3]. Through JNK1/2 and Akt-dependent NF-κB signaling pathways, curcumin inhibits MMP-9 and hence prevents breast cancer cells from metastasizing [4].
ln Vivo
Anti-neoplastic effects of curcumol were also confirmed in tumor bearing mice. Curcumol (60 mg/kg daily) significantly reduced tumor size without causing notable toxicity.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 47 mg/mL (198.9 mM)
Water:<1 mg/mL
Ethanol:47 mg/mL (198.9 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.58 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 4.2310 mL 21.1551 mL 42.3101 mL
5 mM 0.8462 mL 4.2310 mL 8.4620 mL
10 mM 0.4231 mL 2.1155 mL 4.2310 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
