| Targets |
Cratoxylone targets multiple pathways including Plasmodium falciparum (antiplasmodial activity), nitric oxide production in macrophages, and inflammatory pathways. It inhibits NO production in LPS-stimulated mouse RAW264.7 macrophages with an IC50 of 5.4 μM. It also shows antiplasmodial activity against chloroquine-resistant strains.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Cratoxylone exhibits potent activity in vitro against Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine-resistant strain W2 with an IC50 value below 3 μM. It inhibits NO production in LPS-stimulated mouse RAW264.7 cells with an IC50 of 5.4 μM. The compound protects cells from oxidative stress by scavenging free radicals and modulating inflammatory pathways.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Cratoxylone has demonstrated antiplasmodial activity in animal models of malaria. The compound's antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties suggest potential for managing chronic inflammatory diseases. Its anti-tumor potential has been noted, though detailed in vivo efficacy data are limited.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
For NO inhibition assays, RAW264.7 macrophages are stimulated with LPS and treated with varying concentrations of Cratoxylone. Nitrite accumulation in culture medium is measured using the Griess reagent. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves. For antiplasmodial assays, P. falciparum cultures are incubated with varying concentrations of Cratoxylone, and parasite growth inhibition is measured by [³H]-hypoxanthine incorporation or microscopy. IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays are performed using RAW264.7 macrophages stimulated with LPS. Cells are treated with Cratoxylone at various concentrations, and NO production is measured by Griess assay. Cytokine levels are quantified by ELISA. Cell viability is assessed by MTT assay to determine cytotoxicity. For antiplasmodial assays, P. falciparum-infected erythrocytes are cultured with varying compound concentrations, and parasite viability is assessed.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In antiplasmodial animal models, Cratoxylone is administered to Plasmodium-infected mice (typically via oral or intraperitoneal routes). Parasitemia is monitored by examining blood smears under microscopy. Survival rates and body weight are recorded. The compound's efficacy is evaluated by comparing parasitemia and survival between treated and control groups.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As a prenylated xanthone with a molecular weight of 428.47, Cratoxylone is lipophilic and expected to have moderate oral bioavailability. The compound is likely metabolized in the liver via phase I (oxidation, demethylation) and phase II (glucuronidation, sulfation) pathways. Tissue distribution may include the liver, spleen, and other organs.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Cratoxylone has demonstrated a favorable safety profile in vitro with an IC50 for NO inhibition of 5.4 μM. In animal studies, the compound is well-tolerated at effective antiplasmodial doses. No significant toxicity has been reported.

| Additional Infomation |
Clattositone is a type of flavonoid. It has been reported to exist in Garcinia Cambogia, Garcinia serratifolia, and other organisms with relevant data.
Cratoxylone is a naturally occurring prenylated xanthone with antiplasmodial activity against chloroquine-resistant P. falciparum (IC50 < 3 μM). It inhibits NO production in LPS-stimulated macrophages (IC50 = 5.4 μM) and exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities. It is isolated from the bark of Cratoxylum cochinchinense. |

*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.
