Product Description
n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside can be extracted from kangaisan. n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside causes apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway. n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside may be used in cancer-related research.
n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside is a bioactive compound that can be extracted from the traditional herbal medicine Kangaisan. It has been shown to induce apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway and exhibits antiproliferative activity against cancer cells. Specifically, it inhibits the proliferation of Bel-7402 hepatocellular carcinoma cells by interfering with the cell cycle and inducing apoptosis. Its molecular formula is C₁₀H₂₀O₆ with a molecular weight of 236.26.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary target of n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside appears to be the mitochondrial pathway involved in apoptosis. In Bel-7402 cells, the compound induces apoptosis, as evidenced by changes in the expression of key apoptotic regulators: Bcl-2 levels gradually diminish, while Bax and p53 levels increase. This shift in the Bcl-2/Bax ratio favors apoptosis. The compound also interferes with the cell cycle, causing arrest in the G0/G1 phase. Its specific molecular target within these pathways has not been identified.
ln Vitro
The anti-proliferative activity of n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside (0-23.6 μg/mL; 24-78 hours) decreases the viability of Bel-7402 cells [1]. BEL-7402 cells are inhibited by n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside (0-75 μg/mL; 0-72 hours) through apoptosis induction and cell cycle interference [1].
In vitro, n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside demonstrates antiproliferative activity against Bel-7402 cells. At concentrations of 0-23.6 μg/mL and incubation times of 24-78 hours, it decreases cell viability in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Cell cycle analysis shows that at concentrations of 0, 50, and 75 μg/mL, the compound induces cell cycle arrest in the G0/G1 phase. Western blot analysis at 23.6 μg/mL reveals that Bcl-2 levels gradually decrease while Bax and p53 levels increase over 0-72 hours.
ln Vivo
Specific in vivo activity data for n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside are not provided in the available sources. While the compound exhibits promising in vitro antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing activity, no in vivo studies in animal models are described. Further research would be needed to evaluate its efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and safety in vivo. Its potential for cancer research has been suggested based on its in vitro activity.
Enzyme Assay
A cell-free assay for n-Butyl-β-D-fructofuranoside is not described in the available sources, as its activity is characterized through cell-based assays. The compound's mechanism of action involves apoptosis induction and cell cycle interference, which are typically assessed in cellular systems rather than cell-free enzymatic assays. Its effects on apoptotic markers (Bcl-2, Bax, p53) are measured in cell lysates using techniques such as Western blotting.
