| Targets |
Kadsurin does not have a single defined pharmacological target. As a lignan with antioxidant activity, its primary mechanism involves scavenging reactive oxygen species and inducing antioxidant enzymes in the liver. It significantly decreases CCl₄-induced lipid peroxidation products, indicating protection against oxidative damage. The compound may also modulate oxidative stress pathways, protect liver function, and support mitochondrial health. Its unique lignan structure contributes to its bioactivity and potential as a lead compound in natural product-based drug discovery.

| Enzyme Assay |
For antioxidant compounds, standard cell-free assays include DPPH radical scavenging, ABTS radical cation decolorization, and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. These assays involve incubating the compound with free radical-generating systems and measuring the reduction in oxidative products. Lipid peroxidation inhibition can be measured using thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assays.
|
| Cell Assay |
For antioxidant compounds, standard cellular assays involve treatment of hepatocytes or other cell lines with the test compound followed by exposure to oxidative stress (e.g., CCl₄, H₂O₂). Cell viability, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, lipid peroxidation (MDA), and antioxidant enzyme activities (SOD, CAT, GPx) are measured.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For in vivo evaluation of hepatoprotective compounds, standard animal models include CCl₄-induced liver injury in mice or rats. The compound is typically administered orally or intraperitoneally prior to CCl₄ challenge. Liver function markers (ALT, AST), lipid peroxidation products, antioxidant enzyme activities, and liver histology are assessed.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
