| Targets |
Gibberellin A4 primarily targets gibberellin receptors in plants. In the context of biomedical research, its key molecular target of interest is the transcription factor NF-κB, where it exhibits anti-NF-κB activity. By modulating this pathway, Gibberellin A4 can reduce inflammation, as demonstrated by its ability to decrease LPS-induced NF-κB activation in RAW 264.7 macrophages.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Gibberellin A4 demonstrates significant anti-NF-κB and antioxidant activities. It has been shown to reduce LPS-induced NF-κB activation in RAW 264.7 macrophages, highlighting its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent. These activities make it a useful compound for investigating inflammatory pathways in cell-based systems, where it can modulate key signaling cascades involved in the immune response.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Gibberellin A4 is primarily recognized for its potent plant growth-regulating effects, promoting flowering and other developmental processes. While its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties have been characterized in vitro, specific in vivo efficacy data in animal models of disease are not detailed in the available sources. Its documented anti-NF-κB activity suggests potential for in vivo applications in inflammation research.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for Gibberellin A4's anti-inflammatory activity typically involve culturing macrophage cell lines, such as RAW 264.7 cells, and stimulating them with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to induce an inflammatory response. The cells are then treated with Gibberellin A4, and the inhibition of NF-κB activation is measured using reporter gene assays or by quantifying the expression of NF-κB target genes. Antioxidant activity can be assessed using standard cell-based ROS detection assays.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Gibberellin A4 are conducted using mammalian cell lines like RAW 264.7 macrophages. The general protocol involves seeding cells, treating them with varying concentrations of Gibberellin A4, and then stimulating with LPS. After incubation, cells are harvested, and the levels of NF-κB activation are measured through methods such as Western blotting for phosphorylated IκB or by using NF-κB luciferase reporter constructs.

| Additional Infomation |
Gibberellin A4 is a C19-gibberellin, initially discovered in Gibberella fujikuroi, differing from gibberellin A1 in that the hydroxyl group at the C-7 position (gibberellin number) is replaced by a hydrogen atom. It is a plant metabolite. It is a lactone, belonging to the gibberellin monocarboxylic acid family, and is also a C19-gibberellin. It is the conjugate acid of gibberellin A4(1-). Gibberellin A4 has been reported to exist in Fusarium fujikuroi, citrus (Citrus reticulata), and several other organisms with relevant data.
Gibberellin A4 is a plant hormone with emerging biomedical research applications due to its anti-NF-κB and antioxidant activities. It is a useful tool for studying inflammatory pathways. The compound is available from commercial suppliers for research purposes only. It is not an approved therapeutic agent. Its mechanism of action, involving the modulation of NF-κB signaling, makes it a compound of interest for investigating inflammation-related diseases. |
