Product Description
Obovatol is a diphenyl ether lignan extracted from the leaves of Magnolia obovata Thunb.
Obovatol (CAS#: 83864-78-2) is a biphenyl ether lignan isolated from the leaves of Magnolia obovata Thunb. It possesses antioxidant, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, and antitumor activities. Obovatol is a potent NF-kappaB inhibitor and also targets the PANoptosis-related molecule NLRP3/AIM2. It has been studied for potential use in Alzheimer's disease, cancer, and other inflammatory conditions.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
NF-kappaB, NLRP3/AIM2. Obovatol is a potent inhibitor of NF-kappaB, suppressing the translocation of p50 and p65 into the nucleus and inhibiting the DNA-binding activity of NF-kappaB in LPS-treated RAW264.7 cells. It also targets the PANoptosis-related molecule NLRP3/AIM2. Additionally, it inhibits the DNA-binding activity of NF-kappaB induced by LPS, suppresses IkappaB release, and inhibits COX-1 and LOX activities. Obovatol binds to Prx2 and enhances its peroxidase activity, down-regulating LPS/TLR4 signaling.
ln Vitro
Obovatol has broad biological activities including antioxidant, neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic, anti-fungal (IC50=38 microM against Cryptococcus neoformans), and anti-tumor activities. It enhances docetaxel-induced prostate and colon cancer cell death through inactivation of NF-kappaB. It also acts as a chitin synthase inhibitor and potentiates pentobarbital-induced sleep time through GABAA receptor/chloride channel activation. Obovatol increases the expression of GABAA receptor subunits.
ln Vivo
Obovatol has been studied in various animal models. It enhances pentobarbital-induced sleeping time in mice through GABAA receptors/chloride channel activation. It attenuates scopolamine-induced cognitive dysfunction by reducing Abeta accumulation and beta-secretase activity in the cortex and hippocampus of mice. Obovatol reduces neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and neuronal loss in Alzheimer's disease models. It also shows anti-platelet activity in vivo through inhibition of COX-1 and LOX.
Enzyme Assay
Not explicitly detailed in reference sources. A typical NF-kappaB binding assay involves incubating nuclear extracts from LPS-treated cells with a biotinylated NF-kappaB consensus DNA probe and Obovatol. DNA binding activity is measured by EMSA or ELISA. Alternatively, the interaction of Obovatol with Prx2 is studied by surface plasmon resonance or pull-down assays with recombinant protein.
Cell Assay
RAW264.7 cells are treated with LPS (1 microg/mL) to activate NF-kappaB, with or without Obovatol pretreatment for 1 hour. NF-kappaB p65 translocation to the nucleus is detected by immunofluorescence or Western blot of nuclear fractions. NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity is measured in nuclear extracts using an ELISA-based assay. iNOS and COX-2 expression, as well as pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, are measured by Western blot or ELISA.
Animal Protocol
In the mouse pentobarbital-induced sleep model, Obovatol is administered intraperitoneally or orally 30 minutes before pentobarbital injection, and sleep duration is recorded. In the scopolamine-induced cognitive dysfunction model, Obovatol is administered daily for 7-14 days before scopolamine injection. Cognitive function is assessed by Morris water maze or passive avoidance test, and brain tissue is analyzed for Abeta levels, beta-secretase activity, and markers of cholinergic function.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Obovatol has a molecular weight of 282.33 and formula C18H18O3. It is soluble in DMSO and ethanol. For in vivo studies, it can be formulated in various vehicles. Storage should be at -20degC as powder, where it is stable for up to 3 years. In solution at -80degC, it is stable for up to 1 year. The compound should be protected from light and moisture.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No detailed toxicity data for Obovatol are provided in the reference sources. As a natural product isolated from Magnolia obovata, which has a history of traditional use, Obovatol may have a favorable safety profile at certain doses. However, comprehensive toxicological studies would be required for therapeutic development. The compound is for research use only.

Additional Infomation
Obovatol has reportedly been found in magnolias (Magnolia officinalis), Magnoliaceae, and other organisms with available data.
Obovatol is a natural product and research compound, not approved for clinical use. It has been extensively studied for its multiple biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, anti-cancer, and anti-fungal effects. Its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and reduce Abeta accumulation makes it a potential candidate for Alzheimer's disease research. The compound is a valuable tool for studying NF-kappaB inhibition, PANoptosis, and neuroinflammation.

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)
