| Targets |
Kuwanon E targets multiple enzymes and pathways. It has cytotoxic activity against leukemic cells and inhibits cholinesterase enzymes (AChE and BChE). It also reduces the level of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β. Its anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities are of particular interest.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Kuwanon E exhibits cytotoxic activity against THP-1 human monocytic leukemic cells, with an IC₅₀ of 4.0 µM. It inhibits AChE and BChE in a dose-dependent manner, with Ki values ranging from 3.1 to 37.5 µM and 1.7 to 19.1 µM, respectively. It also reduces the level of IL-1β.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, the cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory activities of Kuwanon E suggest potential for cancer and inflammatory disease research. Its ability to inhibit cholinesterase enzymes suggests potential for neurological research. However, specific in vivo efficacy data are not detailed in the provided search results.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro non-cell enzyme assays for Kuwanon E typically involve measuring its inhibition of AChE and BChE activities. The compound is incubated with the enzyme and a chromogenic substrate (e.g., Ellman's reagent), and the inhibition of activity is measured. Ki values are determined from kinetic analysis.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for Kuwanon E use THP-1 human monocytic leukemic cells to study its cytotoxic effects. Cells are treated with the compound, and cell viability is assessed using MTT or similar assays. Its effects on IL-1β production can be measured in stimulated immune cells by ELISA.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies for Kuwanon E would likely employ xenograft models using THP-1 cells to study its anti-leukemic activity. Its anti-inflammatory effects could be studied in models of inflammation, where IL-1β levels are measured.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Kuwanon E has a molecular weight of 424.48 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₂₅H₂₈O₆. It is a flavonoid. It is a solid and should be stored at 2-8°C for up to 24 months. It is soluble in organic solvents. Detailed pharmacokinetic data are not widely published.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of Kuwanon E is not extensively detailed in the provided search results. As a natural flavonoid, it is generally considered to have a good safety profile, but comprehensive toxicological studies are needed. It is not intended for human therapeutic use without further development.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
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).

| 10 mM | 0.2356 mL | 1.1779 mL | 2.3558 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.
