| Targets |
β-Damascone does not have a defined biological target. It has been studied as an inhibitor of acyl-CoA:retinol acyltransferase (ARAT) and lecithin:retinol acyltransferase (LRAT) enzymes in bovine RPE microsomes at a concentration of 10 µM. It has potential cancer chemopreventive activity and insecticidal properties.

| ln Vitro |
CYP101C1 has the ability to bind and hydroxylate ionone derivatives, such as β-damascone and α-and β-ionone[3]. C13-norisoprenoids, which are produced from carotenoid degradation, include β-damascenone, β-Damascone, and β-ionone, among other important flavor compounds found in rose essential oil[4].
In vitro, β-damascone shows bioactivity as an inhibitor of acyl-CoA:retinol acyltransferase (ARAT) and lecithin:retinol acyltransferase (LRAT) enzymes in bovine RPE microsomes at a concentration of 10 µM. It has potential cancer chemopreventive activity. The compound is also used as a fragrance chemical. |
| ln Vivo |
β-Damascone is not a pharmacologically approved drug. It has potential cancer chemopreventive activity and insecticidal properties. The compound has not been evaluated in clinical trials and is not approved for therapeutic use. It is used primarily in the fragrance industry.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for β-damascone typically involve enzyme inhibition studies. A standard protocol for ARAT/LRAT inhibition involves incubating bovine RPE microsomes with the substrates and varying concentrations of β-damascone (typically 1-100 µM) at 37°C. Enzyme activity is measured by the incorporation of radiolabeled retinol into retinyl esters. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell culture experiments with β-damascone are not standard, as it is primarily a fragrance compound. When studied for its biological activity, cells are treated with the compound at concentrations ranging from 1-100 µM, and cell viability or enzyme activity is measured.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies with β-damascone are not well documented, as it is primarily a fragrance compound. If conducted, typical protocols for insecticidal activity would involve testing the compound against mosquitoes or other insects.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of β-damascone are not characterized, as it is not a drug substance. The compound is a volatile fragrance that is not intended for human exposure.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
β-Damascone may cause skin and eye irritation. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound, including the use of gloves, safety glasses, and working in a fume hood. The compound should be stored in a cool, dry place away from sources of ignition.

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (13.00 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (13.00 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
