| ln Vitro |
3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid (10 μg/mL) enhances the expression of the γ-subunits that GAD65 and GABAA receive, but has no impact on the quantities of the α- and β-subunits [2].
In vitro, 3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid demonstrates antioxidant activity. It inhibits lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenates. Its antioxidant activity is likely due to its ability to scavenge free radicals. It is not typically used in cell-based assays as a bioactive compound, but rather as a chemical intermediate. |
| ln Vivo |
The sedative action of 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamic acid (25–100 mg/kg, ip) can extend the duration of sleep [1]. The exercise ability of individuals was dramatically lowered by 10, mg/kg of 3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamic acid [2].
In vivo, 3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid is not used as a therapeutic agent. Its primary application is as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other compounds. Any in vivo activity would be related to the drugs synthesized from it, such as cinepazide, a vasodilator. |
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro antioxidant assay for 3,4,5-Trimethoxycinnamic acid involves measuring its ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation. Rat brain homogenates are incubated with the compound and a lipid peroxidation inducer, such as Fe2+ or ascorbate. The production of malondialdehyde (MDA), a marker of lipid peroxidation, is measured using the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assay.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.49 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 25.0 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: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.49 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 25.0 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.
