Product Description

Curcumenol is a potent CYP3A4 inhibitor (antagonist) with IC50 of 12.6 μM. It is an important extract of Curcuma zedoaria with medicinal value and has neuro-protective (neuro-protection), anti~inflammatory, anti-tumor and hepatoprotective activities. Curcumenol ((+)-Curcumenol) inhibits Akt-mediated NF-κB activation and p38 MAPK signaling pathway in LPS-stimulated BV-2 microglia.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)

Targets	CYP3A4 (IC50 = 36.63 μM); CYP2C9 (IC50 = 75.76 μM)
ln Vitro	Nitric oxide (NO) production, pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6) and (TNF-α) and pro-inflammatory protein expression, iNOS, and COX-2 expression are all significantly reduced by curcumenol in response to LPS. Hepatoprotective qualities of curcumenol have also been demonstrated. By preventing the phosphorylation of Akt, curcumenol can reduce the NF-B activity that LPS causes. Its administration significantly reduces the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK caused by LPS, but not JNK or ERK[1]. With an IC50 value of 12.6 1.3 M, curcumenol significantly reduces the activity of CYP3A4. With a Ki of 10.8 μM, kinetic analysis demonstrates curcumenol's competitive inhibition of testosterone 6β-hydroxylation activity (CYP3A4)[2].
ln Vivo	In a sterile 96-well plate with a flat bottom, BV-2 cells are seeded. The following day, the cells are allowed to adhere. The cells are first pretreated with different concentrations of curcumenol for 2 hours, then exposed to LPS (0.4 μg/mL) for 12 to 24 hours.

*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.
