Herniarin has an IC50 of 207.6 µM, making it cytotoxic to the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. MCF-7 cells undergo apoptosis when exposed to 100 µM herniarin [1]. When Herniarin is coupled with 5 µg/mL cisplatin, it significantly increases chromatin Concentrate and boosts the anti-tumor impact of cisplatin. However, Herniarin alone does not appear to be cytotoxic to Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) cells[2].
Herniarin (7-methoxycoumarin) exhibited cytotoxic effects against the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. At 100 μM, it reduced cell viability to 50.6% ± 3.1% after 48 hours of treatment. The compound induced apoptosis, evidenced by increased caspase-3 activity and morphological changes characteristic of programmed cell death. [1] In combination studies, herniarin (200 μM) synergistically enhanced the cytotoxicity of cisplatin (2.5 μM) in MCF-7 cells. Co-treatment for 48 hours significantly reduced cell viability (to 28.4% ± 2.7%) compared to cisplatin alone (48.9% ± 3.8%). This synergy was linked to amplified apoptosis via caspase-3 activation and mitochondrial membrane disruption. [2] |
Cell Assay |
For cytotoxicity assessment, MCF-7 cells were seeded in 96-well plates and treated with herniarin (6.25–200 μM) or vehicle for 24–72 hours. Cell viability was measured using MTT assay. Apoptosis was evaluated via Annexin V/PI staining and caspase-3 activity kits.
[1][2]
For combination studies, cells were pre-treated with cisplatin (2.5 μM) for 2 hours, followed by herniarin (200 μM) for 48 hours. Synergy was analyzed using the Chou-Talalay method (combination index < 1). Mitochondrial membrane potential was assessed via JC-1 staining. [2] |

Additional Infomation |
Herniarin is a member of the class of coumarins that is coumarin substituted by a methoxy group at position 7. It has a role as a fluorochrome.
7-Methoxycoumarin has been reported in Trichogonia grazielae, Yponomeuta mahalebellus, and other organisms with data available. See also: Glycyrrhiza Glabra (part of); Chamomile (part of). Herniarin is a natural coumarin derivative with reported anticancer properties. Its pro-apoptotic mechanism involves caspase-3 activation and mitochondrial dysfunction, particularly in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells (MCF-7). [1][2] The compound synergizes with cisplatin by potentiating DNA damage-induced apoptosis, suggesting potential as an adjuvant in chemotherapy regimens. [2] |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (14.19 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 (14.19 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 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.
