Product Description
Isocurcumenol, extracted from Curcuma zedoaria Rhizomes, is an inhibitor (blocker/antagonist) of ERα. Has anti-tumor activity. Its IC50 against DLA and KB cancer/tumor cells were 99.1 µg/mL and 178.2 µg/mL, respectively.
Isocurcumenol is a sesquiterpene constituent of the essential oil in white turmeric rhizomes (Curcuma zedoaria). It is one of the compounds studied in silico for its potential as an inhibitor of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) associated with breast cancer. No previous similar in silico report has been published elsewhere. [2]
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Isocurcumenol (12.5–400 µg/mL, 24-48 hours) suppresses cancer cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner [1]. Isocurcumenol has no evident harm to normal chicken embryo fibroblasts and lymphocytes [1].
Enzyme Assay
Molecular docking was performed using AutoDock Vina program to investigate the interaction of Isocurcumenol with ERα. The ligand 3D structure was drawn using ChemBio 3D v.12.0.2 Free Trial, followed by geometry optimization with HyperChem v8.0 Professional Edition. The active pocket of ERα (PDB code: 1A52) was prepared by reducing the homodimer to monomer (chain A) using SwissPDBViewer v4.01. Binding pocket amino acid residues were analyzed using Ligand Explorer Viewer and Q-SiteFinder. The grid box size used for docking was 20x20x15, selected from six variations (15x15x15, 15x15x20, 15x20x15, 20x15x15, 20x15x20, 20x20x15) to achieve optimal ligand-receptor interactions. Docking was repeated ten times, and the three best results were taken. The interaction energy (EI) and inhibition constant (Ki) were calculated.
The docking results showed that Isocurcumenol interacted with ERα through hydrophobic interactions. Hydrogen bonds were not formed. The hydrophobic interactions were formed between Isocurcumenol and the amino acid residues Leu349 (3.6 to 3.8 Å), Ala350 (3.7 Å), Leu384 (3.4 to 3.9 Å), Leu387 (3.5 to 3.9 Å), Met388 (3.5 to 3.7 Å), Phe404 (3.3 to 3.9 Å), and Leu525 (3.6 Å).

Additional Infomation
Isocurcumenol is a sesquiterpene compound. It has been reported that Isocurcumenol is found in Cyperus rotundus, Curcuma longa, and other organisms with relevant data.
Isocurcumenol is one of the test compounds along with curcumol, curcumenol, and β-sitosterol. It is a constituent of white turmeric (Curcuma zedoaria (Christm.) Roscoe). The study predicts that natural products containing Isocurcumenol have the potential to be used as medicine or adjuvant drug in anti-breast cancer therapy due to its activity against ERα. Among the test compounds, Isocurcumenol exhibited the lowest inhibition constant (Ki = 0.584 μM) and interaction energy (EI = -8.5 kcal/mol), indicating it most easily occupies the active ERα pocket. The predicted mechanism of ERα inhibition is likely via steric hindrance effect from hydrophobic interactions. [2]

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO : ~100 mg/mL (~426.75 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (10.67 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (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 corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 4.2675 mL 21.3374 mL 42.6749 mL
5 mM 0.8535 mL 4.2675 mL 8.5350 mL
10 mM 0.4267 mL 2.1337 mL 4.2675 mL

*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.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
