| Targets |
The specific molecular targets of γ-gurjunene have not been fully elucidated. Current research suggests that its anti-inflammatory effects may be mediated through the inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines and enzymes; its antimicrobial activity may involve disruption of bacterial cell membrane structures or interference with cell wall synthesis. Additionally, this compound may interact with cell membrane receptors, modulating signaling pathways to produce its observed biological effects.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro studies have demonstrated that γ-gurjunene exhibits multiple biological activities: Antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Anti-inflammatory activity through inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Anticancer activity – γ-gurjunene (3.14% content in Dipterocarpus alatus oleo-resin) shows cytotoxicity against U937 human leukemia cells. Antioxidant activity through free radical scavenging capacity, helping to reduce oxidative stress.

| Cell Assay |
Cytotoxicity Assay: The neutral red (NR) uptake method is used to determine the cytotoxicity of γ-gurjunene against various human tumor cell lines. HCT116 (human colon cancer), SKLU1 (human lung cancer), SK-MEL2 (human melanoma), SiHa (human cervical cancer), and U937 (human leukemia) cells are seeded in 96-well plates and incubated with varying concentrations of γ-gurjunene for a defined period. After incubation, neutral red dye is added, and absorbance at 540 nm is measured to assess the proportion of viable cells.

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 | 0.4894 mL | 2.4468 mL | 4.8936 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.
