Grape Seed Extract is a natural product isolated from whole grape seeds that have a great concentration of vitamin E, flavonoids, linoleic acid, and OPCs. It has a number of health advantages, including an anti-inflammatory effect. The fat-metabolizing enzymes lipoprotein lipase and pancreatic lipase are inhibited by grape seed extract.
| Targets |
Pancreatic lipase (IC50 = 22 μg/mL for the grape seed extract fraction rich in procyanidins) [2]
- Human colorectal carcinoma cells [3] |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Grape seed extract (25-100 μg/mL; 12-48 hours) inhibits the growth of and causes the death of human colorectal cancer cells[3].
Grape seed extract (25-100 μg/mL; 12-24 hours) modulates the protein levels of molecules that control the cell cycle in HT29 and LoVo cells[3]. Grape seed extract (25-100 μg/mL; 24 hours) causes human colorectal cancer cells to undergo apoptotic cell death[3]. Inhibited pancreatic lipase activity in a concentration-dependent manner; the procyanidin-rich fraction of Grape Seed Extract showed stronger inhibitory effect than the crude extract [2] - Suppressed the proliferation of human colorectal carcinoma cell lines (HT-29, HCT-116, SW480) in a time- and concentration-dependent manner; induced cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase and apoptosis in HT-29 cells; downregulated the expression of cyclin D1, cyclin E, and CDK2, while upregulated p21WAF1/CIP1 and p27KIP1; reduced the activation of PI3K/Akt and MAPK (ERK1/2, p38) signaling pathways [3] |
| ln Vivo |
Grape seed extract (200 mg/kg; i.g.; 5 days/wk; for 8 weeks) inhibits the growth of HT29 colon carcinoma tumor xenografts in athymic nude mice[3].
In tumors, grape seed extract decreases cell proliferation while increasing apoptotic cell death[3]. In tumors, grape seed extract increases poly(ADP-ribose) poly-merase cleavage and Cip1/p21 protein levels[3]. In obese or overweight individuals, daily supplementation with 1000 mg of Grape Seed Extract for 8 weeks significantly decreased serum levels of hs-CRP (a pro-inflammatory marker) and neuropeptide Y (an appetite-stimulating neuropeptide), but did not affect anthropometric measures (body weight, BMI, waist circumference) or appetite scores compared to the placebo group [1] - In nude mice xenografted with HT-29 human colorectal carcinoma cells, oral administration of Grape Seed Extract (200 mg/kg body weight, 5 days/week for 4 weeks) significantly inhibited tumor growth (tumor volume and weight reduced by ~40-50%) without causing obvious toxicity; downregulated the expression of cyclin D1, phosphorylated Akt, and phosphorylated ERK1/2 in tumor tissues [3] |
| Enzyme Assay |
Pancreatic lipase activity assay: The reaction mixture contained lipase enzyme, substrate (p-nitrophenyl butyrate), and various concentrations of Grape Seed Extract or its fractions. After incubation at 37°C for a specified time, the absorbance was measured at 405 nm to determine the enzyme activity; the inhibitory rate was calculated and IC50 value was determined by regression analysis [2]
|
| Cell Assay |
Colorectal carcinoma cell proliferation assay: Cells were seeded in 96-well plates and treated with different concentrations of Grape Seed Extract (0-200 μg/mL) for 24, 48, or 72 hours. Cell viability was assessed using the MTT assay, and the proliferation rate was calculated relative to the control group [3]
- Cell cycle and apoptosis analysis: HT-29 cells were treated with Grape Seed Extract (100 μg/mL) for 48 hours. For cell cycle analysis, cells were fixed, stained with propidium iodide, and analyzed by flow cytometry. For apoptosis analysis, cells were stained with Annexin V-FITC and propidium iodide, then detected by flow cytometry [3] - Western blot analysis: HT-29 cells treated with Grape Seed Extract were lysed, and protein extracts were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to membranes, and probed with specific antibodies against cyclin D1, cyclin E, CDK2, p21WAF1/CIP1, p27KIP1, PI3K, Akt, ERK1/2, p38, and β-actin (loading control). The bands were visualized using chemiluminescence and quantified by densitometry [3] |
| Animal Protocol |
Athymic male nu/nu mice, with human colon carcinoma HT29 tumor xenograft[3]
200 mg/kg Oral gavage, 5 days/wk, for 8 weeks Nude mice (6-8 weeks old) were subcutaneously inoculated with HT-29 human colorectal carcinoma cells (1×106 cells/mouse) to establish xenograft tumors. When tumors reached ~100 mm3, mice were randomly divided into two groups: control group (oral gavage with vehicle) and Grape Seed Extract group (oral gavage with 200 mg/kg body weight of Grape Seed Extract dissolved in vehicle). Administration was performed 5 days/week for 4 weeks. Tumor volume was measured every 3-4 days, and mice were weighed weekly. At the end of the experiment, mice were euthanized, tumors were excised and weighed, and tumor tissues were collected for histological and molecular analysis [3] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In an 8-week human clinical trial, daily supplementation with 1000 mg of grape seed extract did not cause any serious adverse events; a few subjects reported mild and transient gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, bloating), with no significant difference between the grape seed extract group and the placebo group [1]
- In a nude mouse xenograft model, oral administration of 200 mg/kg of grape seed extract daily for 4 consecutive weeks did not affect the mice's body weight, food intake, or organ weight (liver, kidney, spleen), and no obvious histological abnormalities were observed in the major organs [3] |

Grape seed extract is a natural product rich in proanthocyanidins, which are considered to be the main components responsible for its bioactivity [2, 3]. - In overweight/obese individuals, grape seed extract can reduce the levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and neuropeptide Y, suggesting potential anti-inflammatory and appetite-regulating effects, but further research is needed to confirm its role in weight management [1]. - The in vitro and in vivo anti-colorectal cancer effects of grape seed extract are associated with the regulation of cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and key signaling pathways (PI3K/Akt, MAPK), suggesting its potential as an adjunct to the prevention or treatment of colorectal cancer [3]. |

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 6.0 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: ≥ 0.6 mg/mL (Infinity mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 6.0 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.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

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.
