| Targets |
Lupiwighteone targets the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway, which is frequently dysregulated in cancer. By inhibiting this pathway, it induces apoptosis in cancer cells. It also has antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-angiogenic activities. Its anticancer effects have been demonstrated in breast cancer, prostate cancer, and neuroblastoma cells.

| ln Vitro |
Lupiwighteone (2-100 μM; 72 hours) demonstrates cytotoxicity against many cell lines, with IC50s of 23.7 μM and 21 μM, respectively, against DU-145 and SGC-7901 cells [2]. In 48 hours, lupiwighteone (20–60 μM) causes cell cycle arrest in DU-145 cells [2]. In 48 hours, lupiwighteone (20–60 μM) causes apoptosis [2]. The expression of cell cycle-related proteins in DU-145 cells is lowered in a dose-dependent manner by lupiwighteone (20–60 μM; 48 hours) [2]. A dose-dependent increase in ROS generation is induced by lupiwighteone (20–60 μM; 48 hours) [2]. Inducing mitochondria-based intrinsic apoptosis in DU-145 cells, lupiwighteone up-regulates cytochrome c and caspase-3, cleaves PARP-1, and down-regulates p-Akt/Akt ratio and VEGF expression [2].
Lupiwighteone exhibits potent in vitro anticancer activity. It induces caspase-dependent and -independent apoptosis in human breast cancer cells by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. It has cytotoxic, apoptotic, and antiangiogenic activities in DU-145 prostate cancer cells and anticancer and cancer preventive effects on SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells. These in vitro activities confirm its potential as an anticancer agent. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, lupiwighteone has demonstrated anticancer activity in preclinical models. Its ability to inhibit the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway and induce apoptosis makes it a promising candidate for cancer therapy. Its anti-angiogenic activity may also contribute to its antitumor effects. Further in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize its therapeutic potential.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for lupiwighteone involve measuring its effects on cancer cell lines. Cells are treated with the compound at various concentrations, and cell proliferation is measured using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. Apoptosis is assessed by Annexin V staining, caspase activity assays, or PARP cleavage. PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway activity is assessed by Western blot. Anti-angiogenic activity is assessed in HUVEC cells.

In vitro cellular assays for lupiwighteone are conducted in various cancer cell lines, including breast cancer, prostate cancer (DU-145), and neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells. Cells are treated with the compound, and cell viability, apoptosis, and signaling pathway activity are measured. These assays characterize the compound's anticancer activity and mechanism of action. |
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments with lupiwighteone are conducted in mouse xenograft models of cancer. Tumor-bearing mice are administered lupiwighteone at various doses. Tumor growth is monitored, and tumor tissues are harvested for analysis of apoptosis markers and PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway activity. Anti-angiogenic effects are assessed by measuring microvessel density.

*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.
