Product Description
Proscillaridin A is a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase I and II topoisomerase I/II, with IC50s of 30 nM and 100 nM for inhibiting topoisomerase I and II respectively.
Proscillaridin (CAS# 466-06-8), also known as Proscillaridin A, is a cardiac glycoside derived from plants of the genus Scilla and Drimia maritima (Scilla maritima). It has a molecular formula of C₃₀H₄₂O₈ and a molecular weight of 530.6 g/mol. Proscillaridin has been used in research for congestive heart failure and arrhythmias. It is also a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase I and II, and studies suggest it has potential cytotoxic and anticancer properties.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The primary targets of Proscillaridin include topoisomerase I and II, and the Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase pump. It is a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase I and II, with IC₅₀ values of 30 nM and 100 nM, respectively. By inhibiting Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase, it enhances intracellular calcium levels, leading to increased cardiac contractility. At high concentrations above 300 nM, it can increase intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration, activate caspase-3, and induce apoptosis in human fibroblasts. It also interacts with the ABCB1 transporter.
ln Vitro
In MCF-7 cells, proscillaridin A (0-160 nM; 48 hours) exhibits antiproliferative effects in a dose- and time-dependent manner [1].
In vitro, Proscillaridin demonstrates potent anticancer activity. In MCF-7 breast cancer cells, it exhibits antiproliferative effects in a dose- and time-dependent manner at concentrations ranging from 0-160 nM. It potently disrupts topoisomerase I and II activity at nanomolar concentrations, triggering cell death and blocking proliferation in glioblastoma cell lines. At concentrations above 300 nM, it can increase intracellular calcium, activate caspase-3, and induce apoptosis in human fibroblasts. It has been reported to target MYC overexpressing leukemia through global loss of lysine acetylation.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Proscillaridin has been investigated for its cardiovascular and anticancer properties. As a cardiac glycoside, it has been used in the research of congestive heart failure and arrhythmias. Its mechanism involves inhibiting the Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase pump, which increases intracellular calcium and contractility. Its anticancer potential is suggested by its potent topoisomerase inhibition and cytotoxic effects on cancer cell lines. Further in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize its efficacy and safety in different disease models.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding studies for Proscillaridin involve assessing its inhibition of topoisomerase I and II. The compound's activity can be measured using a DNA relaxation assay for topoisomerase I, where the inhibition of enzyme-mediated relaxation of supercoiled DNA is quantified. For topoisomerase II, a decatenation assay can be used. IC₅₀ values are determined from dose-response curves. Its interaction with the Na⁺/K⁺ ATPase pump can be studied by measuring the inhibition of ATP hydrolysis or rubidium uptake. These protocols are for reference only.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Proscillaridin evaluate its antiproliferative and cytotoxic effects. Cancer cell lines such as MCF-7 (breast cancer) or glioblastoma cells are cultured in appropriate media and treated with various concentrations of the compound for 24-72 hours. Cell viability is assessed using MTT, CCK-8, or CellTiter-Glo assays. Apoptosis is measured using Annexin V/PI staining or caspase-3/7 activity assays. Cell cycle analysis is performed using propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry. Intracellular calcium levels can be measured using fluorescent calcium indicators.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Proscillaridin would typically involve models of heart failure or cancer. For heart failure, animal models like the rat model of myocardial infarction could be used to assess the compound's inotropic effects. For cancer, xenograft models bearing tumors such as glioblastoma or leukemia could be employed. The compound would be administered via intraperitoneal or intravenous injection. Endpoints would include tumor growth inhibition, survival, and cardiac function parameters. All procedures must comply with institutional animal care guidelines.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of Proscillaridin are not fully detailed in the provided literature. It has a molecular weight of 530.6 g/mol. As a cardiac glycoside, it is typically administered parenterally due to poor oral bioavailability. The compound's half-life, distribution, and elimination would need to be determined in preclinical studies. It is soluble in DMSO. For research use, it should be stored under appropriate conditions.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of Proscillaridin is consistent with that of cardiac glycosides, which have a narrow therapeutic index. Overdose can lead to cardiac arrhythmias and other serious side effects. The compound is classified for research use only and not for human consumption. At high concentrations (>300 nM), it can induce apoptosis in human fibroblasts. Standard safety precautions for handling potent bioactive compounds should be followed.

Additional Infomation
Proto-onyrosin is an organic molecular entity. It is a cardiac glycoside derived from plants of the genus Scilla and Scilla maritima. Studies have shown that proto-onyrosin possesses potential cytotoxic and anticancer properties, evidenced by its ability to effectively interfere with the activity of topoisomerases I and II at nanomolar concentrations, and to induce cell death and inhibit cell proliferation in glioblastoma cell lines. Proto-onyrosin has also been reported to be found in Drimia indica, with relevant data available. It is a cardiac glycoside isolated from Scilla maritima var. alba.
Additional information: Proscillaridin has the CAS number 466-06-8. Its molecular formula is C₃₀H₄₂O₈ and its molecular weight is 530.6 g/mol. The compound is also known as Talusin. It is a cardiotonic glycoside that inhibits topoisomerase I and II with IC₅₀s of 30 nM and 100 nM, respectively.
