| Targets |
Dehydronuciferine targets acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an enzyme that hydrolyzes acetylcholine in the synaptic cleft. It inhibits AChE with an IC50 of 25 μg/mL. By inhibiting AChE, it increases acetylcholine levels, potentially enhancing cholinergic neurotransmission.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Dehydronuciferine acts as an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor with an IC50 of 25 μg/mL. It is isolated from the leaves of Nelumbo nucifera. Its activity is characteristic of AChE inhibitors used in research on Alzheimer's disease and other cholinergic disorders.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity data for Dehydronuciferine are limited. As an AChE inhibitor, it would be expected to improve cholinergic transmission in vivo, potentially benefiting cognitive function. Further in vivo studies are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for Dehydronuciferine are conducted to evaluate AChE inhibition using Ellman's method. AChE activity is measured by monitoring the hydrolysis of acetylthiocholine. The compound is incubated with AChE and substrate at varying concentrations, and IC50 values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Dehydronuciferine are performed using neuronal cell lines expressing AChE. Cells are treated with compound concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 µg/mL. AChE activity is measured in cell lysates using colorimetric assays. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for Dehydronuciferine would typically utilize rodent models of cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease. The compound is administered orally or intraperitoneally. Cognitive function is assessed using behavioral tests such as the Morris water maze or novel object recognition. AChE activity and acetylcholine levels are measured in brain tissues.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of Dehydronuciferine are not well characterized. The compound has a molecular weight of 293.36 and a molecular formula of C19H19NO2. As a lipophilic alkaloid, it is expected to cross the blood-brain barrier. Standard PK studies in rodents would be required.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for Dehydronuciferine are limited. As a natural product-derived compound, it may have a moderate safety profile. No significant acute toxicity has been reported. The compound is designated for research use only.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.52 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 (8.52 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with ultrasonication. 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.
