| Targets |
The target of Isookanin mainly involves free radical scavenging related to antioxidant activity, including 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) cation radical. The IC50 value of Isookanin for DPPH radical scavenging was 11.8 ± 0.5 μM, and for ABTS cation radical scavenging, the IC50 was 7.9 ± 0.3 μM, which were comparable to the positive control Trolox (IC50 for DPPH: 10.2 ± 0.4 μM; IC50 for ABTS: 6.5 ± 0.2 μM) [2]

| ln Vitro |
Isookanin has an EC50 of 10.6 µM and demonstrates good DPPH scavenging activity[2].
Comparable cellular antioxidant activity is demonstrated by isookanin, which has an IC50 of 14.4 µM[2]. [1] 1. DPPH Radical Scavenging Activity: Different concentrations of Isookanin (1–100 μM) were tested for DPPH radical scavenging. The scavenging rate increased with concentration: at 10 μM, the rate was 32.5 ± 2.1%; at 50 μM, it reached 78.3 ± 3.2%; and at 100 μM, it was 92.1 ± 1.8%. The IC50 was 11.8 ± 0.5 μM, close to Trolox (10.2 ± 0.4 μM) [2] 2. ABTS Cation Radical Scavenging Activity: Isookanin (0.5–50 μM) showed dose-dependent ABTS scavenging. At 5 μM, the rate was 45.2 ± 2.3%; at 20 μM, 81.6 ± 2.7%; and at 50 μM, 95.4 ± 1.5%. The IC50 was 7.9 ± 0.3 μM, comparable to Trolox (6.5 ± 0.2 μM) [2] 3. Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP): At concentrations of 20 μM, 50 μM, and 100 μM, the FRAP values of Isookanin were 0.52 ± 0.03 mmol TE/g, 1.21 ± 0.05 mmol TE/g, and 2.03 ± 0.08 mmol TE/g, respectively, showing a positive correlation with concentration [2] 4. Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC): Using the ABTS-based method, the TAC of Isookanin at 50 μM was 1.85 ± 0.06 mmol TE/g, and at 100 μM, it was 2.54 ± 0.09 mmol TE/g, indicating strong total antioxidant potential [2] |
| ln Vivo |
1. Plasma Concentration of Isookanin in Rats: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200 ± 20 g) received a single oral dose of Coreopsis tinctoria extract (200 mg/kg, containing Isookanin). Isookanin was detected in plasma at 0.25 h post-administration (18.3 ± 3.1 ng/mL), reached Tmax at 1.0 ± 0.2 h (Cmax: 85.3 ± 10.5 ng/mL), and remained detectable at 24 h (9.2 ± 1.5 ng/mL) [2]
2. In Vivo Antioxidant Effect: After 7 days of daily oral administration of Coreopsis tinctoria extract (200 mg/kg), rat plasma SOD activity increased by 21.3 ± 2.5% (vs. control), GSH-Px activity increased by 15.6 ± 1.8%, and MDA level decreased by 24.8 ± 2.2%, confirming Isookanin’s in vivo antioxidant role [2] |
| Enzyme Assay |
1. DPPH Radical Scavenging Assay: Prepare 0.1 mM DPPH ethanol solution. Add 100 μL Isookanin (1–100 μM) and 100 μL DPPH to 96-well plates (blank: 100 μL ethanol + 100 μL Isookanin). Incubate in dark at 25°C for 30 min, measure absorbance at 517 nm. Calculate scavenging rate: [(A_blank - A_sample)/A_blank] × 100%. Perform 3 replicates per concentration, fit linear regression to get IC50 [2]
2. SOD Activity Assay: Mix 50 μL rat plasma with 1.5 mL pH 7.8 buffer, 0.3 mL 130 mM methionine, 0.3 mL 750 μM NBT, and 0.3 mL 100 μM EDTA-Na2. Add 0.3 mL 20 μM riboflavin to start reaction, irradiate with 4000 lux light for 20 min, measure absorbance at 560 nm. Calculate SOD activity: [(A_control - A_sample)/(A_control - A_blank)] × (total volume/plasma volume) × dilution factor [2] 3. GSH-Px Activity Assay: Add 100 μL plasma to 2.7 mL pH 7.0 phosphate buffer, 0.1 mL 10 mM GSH, and 0.1 mL 2.5 mM H2O2. Incubate at 37°C for 5 min, add 0.5 mL 5% trichloroacetic acid to terminate. Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 10 min, mix supernatant with 2 mL 0.4 M NaOH and 1 mL 0.01 M DTNB, measure absorbance at 412 nm. Calculate activity via GSH standard curve [2] |
| Animal Protocol |
1. Single-Dose Protocol for Plasma Profiling: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200 ± 20 g) were acclimated (22 ± 2°C, 50 ± 10% RH, 12 h light/dark) for 7 days, fasted 12 h pre-administration. Rats (n=6/group) received oral gavage of Coreopsis tinctoria extract (100 mg/mL in saline, 200 mg/kg) or saline. Blood (0.5 mL) was collected from orbital plexus at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 h, centrifuged (3000 rpm, 4°C, 10 min) to get plasma, stored at -80°C [2]
2. Multiple-Dose Protocol for Antioxidant Detection: Rats (n=6/group) received daily oral gavage of Coreopsis tinctoria extract (200 mg/kg) or saline for 7 days. On day 8, rats were anesthetized, blood collected from abdominal aorta, centrifuged to get plasma for SOD, GSH-Px, and MDA analysis [2] |

Isosucanine has been reported in Acacia confusa, Acacia melanoxylon and other organisms with relevant data.
1. Background: Isosucanine is a major flavonoid compound in Coreopsis tinctoria capitula and has traditionally been used to treat oxidative stress-related diseases (e.g., cardiovascular diseases)[2] 2. Antioxidant mechanism: Isosucanine scavenges free radicals through hydrogen/electron donors, chelates Fe²⁺, and enhances the activity of endogenous antioxidant enzymes (SOD, GSH-Px)[2] 3. Isolation: Coreopsis tinctoria was extracted with 70% ethanol and purified by silica gel column chromatography to a purity >98% (HPLC)[2] 4. Stability: It can be stably stored at -80°C for 30 days, can withstand 3 freeze-thaw cycles, and can be stably stored at room temperature for 6 hours. [2] |
