Product Description
Gamma-Mangostin is a novel competitive 5-HT2A receptors antagonist purified from the husk of the medicinal plant Garcinia mangostana. Gamma-Mangostin is an inhibitor (blocker/antagonist) of transthyretin (TTR) fibrillation that binds to the thyroxine (T4) binding site and stabilizes the TTR tetramer. Gamma-Mangostin inhibits [3H]-spiperone binding to cultured rat aortic cardiomyocytes (IC50 = 3.5 nM) and reduces the perfusion pressure response of rat coronary arteries to 5-HT2A (IC50 = 0.32 µM).
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
- 5-Hydroxytryptamine 2A (5-HT₂A) receptor (Ki = 0.3 μM)[1]
- Amyloid-beta (Aβ) aggregation and production-related targets [2]
ln Vitro
- Rat aortic strips: Gamma-Mangostin acts as a selective 5-HT₂A receptor antagonist, dose-dependently inhibiting 5-HT-induced vasoconstriction with maximal inhibition rate of ~80% at 1 μM[1]
- SH-SY5Y cells: Gamma-Mangostin inhibits Aβ₁₋₄₂ aggregation with an IC₅₀ of 12.5 μM, and reduces Aβ₁₋₄₀/Aβ₁₋₄₂ production by suppressing cleavage of amyloid precursor protein (APP) via downregulating BACE1 expression[2]
- 3T3-L1 adipocytes (insulin-resistant model): Gamma-Mangostin (10, 20 μM) enhances insulin sensitivity, promoting glucose uptake by 30-45% compared to control, and upregulates GLUT4 membrane translocation[5]
ln Vivo
- STZ-induced diabetic mice: Oral administration of Gamma-Mangostin (20, 40 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks) improves liver function, reducing serum ALT and AST levels by 40-60%, and alleviates hepatic steatosis and inflammatory infiltration[3]
- STZ-induced diabetic mice: Gamma-Mangostin (20, 40 mg/kg/day, oral for 4 weeks) exerts renal protective effects, decreasing serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels by 35-55%, and attenuating renal glomerular hypertrophy, tubular damage, and interstitial fibrosis[4]
- STZ-induced diabetic mice: Gamma-Mangostin (20, 40 mg/kg/day, oral for 4 weeks) synergizes with insulin to lower fasting blood glucose (by 30-50%) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA₁c) levels, and enhances insulin signaling via increasing Akt phosphorylation in liver and muscle tissues[5]
Enzyme Assay
- 5-HT₂A receptor competitive binding assay: Membrane preparations from rat brain cortex expressing 5-HT₂A receptor are incubated with radiolabeled 5-HT and various concentrations of Gamma-Mangostin (0.01-10 μM) at 25°C for 60 minutes. Bound radioligand is separated by filtration, and radioactivity is measured. Ki value is calculated via nonlinear regression analysis of competition binding curves[1]
- Aβ aggregation inhibition assay: Aβ₁₋₄₂ peptide is incubated with Gamma-Mangostin (5-50 μM) at 37°C for 48 hours. Thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescent probe is added, and fluorescence intensity is detected at excitation wavelength 440 nm and emission wavelength 485 nm to evaluate Aβ aggregation degree, with IC₅₀ value calculated[2]
Cell Assay
- Rat aortic strip contraction assay: Isolated rat thoracic aortic strips are suspended in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer (37°C, aerated with 95% O₂ and 5% CO₂) and equilibrated for 60 minutes. Vasoconstriction is induced by 5-HT (1 μM), followed by addition of Gamma-Mangostin (0.1-1 μM). Contractile tension is recorded via a force transducer, and inhibition rate is calculated[1]
- Aβ production detection assay: SH-SY5Y cells are seeded in 6-well plates and cultured to 70% confluence. Cells are treated with Gamma-Mangostin (5-20 μM) for 24 hours. Cell supernatants and lysates are collected; Aβ₁₋₄₀/Aβ₁₋₄₂ concentrations are measured by ELISA, and APP/BACE1 protein expressions are detected by Western blot[2]
- Glucose uptake assay: Differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes are induced to insulin resistance. Cells are treated with Gamma-Mangostin (10, 20 μM) and insulin (10 nM) for 12 hours. Fluorescently labeled 2-deoxyglucose is added, and intracellular fluorescence intensity is measured to quantify glucose uptake[5]
Animal Protocol
- Diabetic mice hepatoprotective study: Male mice are intraperitoneally injected with streptozotocin (STZ) to establish diabetic models. Mice are randomly divided into control group, Gamma-Mangostin low-dose group (20 mg/kg) and high-dose group (40 mg/kg). The test compound is administered orally once daily for 4 weeks. Serum ALT and AST levels are detected; liver tissues are collected for HE staining and immunohistochemical detection of inflammatory factors[3]
- Diabetic mice nephroprotective study: STZ-induced diabetic mice are grouped and administered Gamma-Mangostin as described in the hepatoprotective study for 4 weeks. Serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels are measured; kidney tissues are subjected to PAS staining and Masson staining to evaluate tissue damage and fibrosis[4]
- Diabetic mice hypoglycemic study: STZ-induced diabetic mice are randomly divided into control group, insulin group, and insulin + Gamma-Mangostin groups (20, 40 mg/kg). Insulin is injected subcutaneously, and Gamma-Mangostin is administered orally once daily for 4 weeks. Fasting blood glucose is measured weekly; HbA₁c and insulin levels are detected at the end of the study, and Akt phosphorylation in liver and muscle tissues is analyzed[5]
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
In vivo toxicity: Oral administration of γ-dextrin (20, 40 mg/kg/day for 4 weeks) did not cause significant systemic toxicity in diabetic mice, which showed stable weight, no significant histological damage to the heart, spleen and other major organs, and normal serum biochemical indicators [3][4][5].
