Product Description

Kinetin (also called 6-Furfuryladenine; N6-Furfuryladenine) is a cytokinin compound and a class of plant hormone that promotes cell division. Kinetin is often used in plant tissue culture for inducing formation of callus (in conjunction with auxin) and to regenerate shoot tissues from callus. At present, kinetin is one of the widely used anti-aging agents in numerous skin care cosmetics and cosmeceuticals, such as Valeant products kinerase.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Kinetin (N6-furfuryladenine) slows the development and aging of insects, delays the onset of many age-related characteristics seen in normal human skin fibroblasts aged in vitro, and has a direct effect on superoxide dismutase activity in plants. It also prevents the oxidation of unsaturated acids in plant membranes, reduces insect fecundity, and increases the specific activity of catalase. The production of hydroxyl radicals is greatly inhibited by kinetin (70-150 μM) by roughly 41% and 76%, respectively [1]. The cytokinin kinetin found in plants considerably raises the quantity of exon 20 in RNA extracted from cultivated familial dysautonomia (FD) cells [2].
ln Vivo
ADP-induced acute pulmonary thrombosis in mice can be successfully avoided by kinetin (N6-furfuryladenine) injections administered via tail vein (2–6 mg/kg) [1]. For 28 days, subjects were given a dosage of 23.5 mg/kg per day. Six out of eight people had increased WT IKBKAP mRNA expression in their leukocytes after eight days, and the mean increase was statistically significant when compared to the baseline after twenty-eight days [3].
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: ADP-induced acute pulmonary thrombosis 20-24 g mice (ICR strain) [1]
Doses: 2, 4, 6 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Tail vein injection
Experimental Results: Mortality diminished to 70%, 40 % and 35 are 2, 4 and 6 mg/kg respectively.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Interactions
The effects of a long-term (15 day) or short-term (3 or 15 h) treatment with 1 mM aluminium on peroxidase activity, lipid peroxidation and multiplication rate (15 day) were evaluated in Lemna minor L. Kinetin or citrate were administered together with Al in the culture medium in the long-term study or immediately after Al treatment in the short-term study, to mitigate Al toxicity. ... Increments in enzyme activity and lipid peroxidation and a decrease in multiplication rate were observed after Al treatments. Citrate was capable of lowering the Al-induced increase in peroxidase activity in the long- and short-term treatments. The large increase in lipid peroxidation induced by Al was blocked by kinetin and, to a lesser extent, by citrate; the latter more effectively limited the decrease in multiplication rate induced by Al.

Additional Infomation
Kinetin is a member of the class of 6-aminopurines that is adenine carrying a (furan-2-ylmethyl) substituent at the exocyclic amino group. It has a role as a geroprotector and a cytokinin. It is a member of furans and a member of 6-aminopurines.
Kinetin is a cytokinin which are plant hormones promotes cell division and plant growth. It was shown to naturally exist in DNA of organisms including humans and various plants. While kinetin is used in tissue cultures to produce new plants, it is also found in cosmetic products as an anti-aging agents.
Kinetin has been reported in Humulus lupulus, Cocos nucifera, and other organisms with data available.
A furanyl adenine found in PLANTS and FUNGI. It has plant growth regulation effects.

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)
