| Targets |
4'-Methoxyflavonol targets oxidative stress pathways, acting as a radical scavenger. It reduces androgen receptor levels and increases superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. Its effects on plasma glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides suggest it modulates metabolic pathways. Its primary mechanism is believed to be its antioxidant activity, which may have downstream effects on various cellular processes.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, 4'-Methoxyflavonol exhibits potent antioxidant activity, as demonstrated by its ability to scavenge DPPH radicals (IC₅₀ = 25.54 µg/ml). It reduces androgen receptor levels and increases SOD activity. It also shows anti-stress and antioxidant activities. Its activity is primarily attributed to its radical-scavenging capacity conferred by the 3-hydroxy group.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, 4'-Methoxyflavonol has been shown to reduce plasma glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides. This suggests that its antioxidant and metabolic effects translate to systemic benefits in animal models. It also has anti-stress activity. These findings indicate its potential for further study in metabolic and stress-related disorders.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro non-cell enzyme/receptor binding assays for 4'-Methoxyflavonol typically involve measuring its antioxidant activity. This is done using cell-free assays such as the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging assay, where the compound's ability to neutralize the stable DPPH radical is measured spectrophotometrically. The IC₅₀ is determined from a dose-response curve.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for 4'-Methoxyflavonol use various cell lines to study its effects on oxidative stress. Cells are treated with the compound and exposed to an oxidative challenge, and markers of oxidative stress, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and SOD activity, are measured. Its effects on androgen receptor expression can also be assessed in relevant cell lines via Western blot or qPCR.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for 4'-Methoxyflavonol would likely involve administering the compound to animal models of metabolic syndrome or stress. Parameters such as plasma glucose, cholesterol, and triglycerides would be measured to assess its metabolic effects. Behavioral tests might be used to evaluate its anti-stress activity.

| Solubility (In Vitro) |
DMSO : ~6.4 mg/mL (~23.86 mM)

|---|---|
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: 0.64 mg/mL (2.39 mM) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 6.4 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL of 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: ≥ 0.64 mg/mL (2.39 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 6.4 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.) |

*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.
