Oxymatrine (also known as Matrine N-oxide) is a naturally occuring quinolizidine alkaloid isolated from the root of Sophora flavescens, which is used for the treatment of viral hepatitis, cancer, viral myocarditis, gastrointestinal hemorrhage and skin diseases such as colpitis, psoriasis and eczema etc. Oxymatrine protects mice from fulminant hepatitis induced by GalN/LPS and may block hepatocyte apoptosis and subsequent necrosis through downregulating the production of serum tumor necrosis factor alpha and the expression of Fas and Fas ligand in liver tissue. Oxymatrine also shows anti-hepatitis B virus effect in vivo by reducing the contents of HBsAg and HBcAg in transgenic mice liver.
ln Vitro |
An alkaloid called oxymatrine, which is taken from the roots of Sophora flavescens, has been demonstrated to have anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, anti-tumor, and heart-protective properties. Potential signaling pathways for oxymatrine include the following: delta-opioid receptor-Bcl-2, CD40, nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase-1 signaling pathway, dimethyl arginine dimethylaminohydrolase/asymmetric dimethylarginine metabolic pathway, Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription, toll-like receptor 9/TRAF6, delta-opioid receptor-activated B cell nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer, and delta-opioid receptor-Bcl-2 [1]. The growth of PC-3 and DU145 cell lines was dramatically suppressed by oxymatrine in a time- and dose-dependent manner. On the other hand, oxymatrine therapy did not suppress the proliferation of PNT1B healthy human prostate cells [2].

ln Vivo |
The dose-dependent reduction in the volume and weight of the mouse tumors was substantial. Oxymatrine induces apoptosis in vivo, which slows the proliferation of prostate cancer cells [2]. The formation and deposition of collagen in the liver tissue of experimental rats is significantly reduced by oxymatrine. When CCl4 induces liver fibrosis in SD rats, oxymatrine can regulate the TGFβ-Smad pathway's fibrosis signal transduction by upregulating the expression of Smad 7 and downregulating the expression of Smad 3 and CBP [3].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (7.87 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (7.87 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
