| Targets |
Tomentosin targets multiple molecular pathways. It suppresses the production of inflammatory mediators in RAW264.7 cells by inhibiting NF-κB activation. It also induces telomere shortening and caspase-dependent apoptosis in cancer cells. Additionally, it operates through mechanisms including NF-κB pathway modulation and induction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Tomentosin suppresses the production of inflammatory mediators in RAW264.7 cells by inhibiting NF-κB activation. It induces telomere shortening and caspase-dependent apoptosis in cervical cancer cells. It also causes apoptosis and inhibits proliferation, migration, and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Tomentosin has demonstrated anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities in preclinical models. Its ability to inhibit NF-κB and induce apoptosis suggests potential for treating inflammatory diseases and cancer.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The activity of Tomentosin is assessed using cell-based assays. Its anti-inflammatory effect is measured by its ability to suppress the production of inflammatory mediators such as NO, TNF-α, and IL-6 in activated macrophages. Its anticancer activity is evaluated by its effects on cancer cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Tomentosin involve treating RAW264.7 macrophages to study its anti-inflammatory effects and various cancer cell lines (e.g., pancreatic, cervical) to study its anticancer effects. Cell viability, inflammatory marker production, and apoptotic markers are assessed.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies are conducted in animal models of inflammation (e.g., carrageenan-induced paw edema) and cancer (e.g., xenograft models). The compound is administered via intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection or oral gavage.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of Tomentosin are not extensively detailed in publicly available sources. As a natural product, it is typically formulated in DMSO for in vitro studies.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Tomentosin is intended for research use only and is not approved for clinical use. Its toxicological profile would be evaluated in preclinical studies.

| Additional Infomation |
Tomentosin is a sesquiterpene lactone. It has been reported to exist in Carpesium macrocephalum, Inula japonica, and other organisms with relevant data.
Tomentosin is a natural sesquiterpene lactone with dual anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities. It is a valuable tool for studying NF-κB signaling, inflammation, and cancer cell apoptosis. |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (5.03 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween-80 + 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 DMSO stock solution (12.5 mg/mL) to 400 μL of PEG300 and mix well; then add 50 μL of Tween-80 and mix well; finally add 450 μL of physiological saline and 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: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (5.03 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 DMSO stock solution (12.5 mg/mL) to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD saline and mix well. 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. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 1.25 mg/mL (5.03 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 DMSO stock solution (12.5 mg/mL) to 900 μL of corn oil and mix well.  (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.
