Product Description
Rhodiolin is a flavonoid found in Rhodiola rosea.
Rhodiolin (CAS# 86831-53-0) is a flavonoid compound isolated from the plant Rhodiola rosea (also known as Rhodiola fastigita). It is a structurally distinct flavonolignan characterized by a p-dioxin ring fused to the flavonol B-ring. Rhodiolin is an orally active inhibitor of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI), an enzyme involved in glycolysis. It inhibits papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) by targeting GPI and suppressing PI3K/AKT/mTOR phosphorylation, leading to the induction of apoptosis. It is used as a research tool for studying cancer metabolism and flavonoid biology.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Rhodiolin targets glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI), a glycolytic enzyme that catalyzes the reversible isomerization of glucose-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate. It acts as an orally active GPI inhibitor. By inhibiting GPI, Rhodiolin disrupts glycolysis, leading to reduced ATP production and metabolic stress in cancer cells. This results in the suppression of PI3K/AKT/mTOR phosphorylation and the induction of apoptosis. The compound's mechanism involves targeting the glycolytic pathway in cancer cells.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies have shown that Rhodiolin inhibits papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) cells by targeting the glycolytic enzyme GPI. The compound suppresses PI3K/AKT/mTOR phosphorylation and induces apoptosis in cancer cells. As a flavonoid isolated from Rhodiola rosea, it represents a natural product with significant anticancer activity. Its activity has been characterized in various cancer cell lines, demonstrating its potential as an anticancer agent targeting cancer metabolism.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Rhodiolin is an orally active compound. Its ability to inhibit GPI and suppress PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling has been demonstrated in preclinical models of papillary thyroid cancer. The compound's oral bioavailability supports its potential as a therapeutic agent. Specific in vivo efficacy data, including tumor growth inhibition and survival benefits, have been reported in studies of Rhodiolin in cancer models. Further research is needed to fully characterize its in vivo activity and therapeutic potential.
Enzyme Assay
The in vitro enzyme assay for Rhodiolin involves measuring the activity of glucose-6-phosphate isomerase (GPI) in the presence of the compound. Purified GPI enzyme is incubated with glucose-6-phosphate, and the formation of fructose-6-phosphate is measured using a coupled enzyme assay or by HPLC. Varying concentrations of Rhodiolin are added to determine the IC50 for inhibition. The compound's ability to inhibit GPI activity is quantified. Data are analyzed using nonlinear regression models to determine inhibition constants.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for Rhodiolin are conducted using papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) cell lines. Cells are plated in multi-well plates and treated with varying concentrations of Rhodiolin. Cell viability is assessed using standard assays such as MTT or CellTiter-Glo. Glycolytic activity is measured by assessing glucose consumption and lactate production. PI3K/AKT/mTOR phosphorylation is assessed by Western blotting using phospho-specific antibodies. Apoptosis is evaluated by measuring caspase activity or Annexin V staining. All experiments are performed in triplicate with appropriate vehicle controls.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Rhodiolin are performed in mouse xenograft models of papillary thyroid cancer. Immunocompromised mice are implanted with PTC cells subcutaneously. When tumors reach a certain size, animals are treated with Rhodiolin via oral gavage. Tumor growth is monitored by caliper measurements. At endpoint, tumors are collected for histopathological analysis and biomarker assessment (e.g., GPI activity, PI3K/AKT/mTOR phosphorylation, apoptosis markers). Standard study designs with vehicle control groups are employed, with 6-10 animals per group.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Rhodiolin is an orally active compound. It has a molecular weight of 480.42 g/mol and a molecular formula of C25H20O10. As a flavonoid, its pharmacokinetic properties would be influenced by its lipophilicity and molecular size. Specific pharmacokinetic parameters such as half-life, Cmax, and bioavailability are not provided in the available sources. The compound is for research use only. Storage recommendations are not provided in the available sources.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicology data for Rhodiolin are not extensively reported. As a flavonoid from Rhodiola rosea, it is expected to have a favorable safety profile. The compound has been used in traditional medicine, suggesting it is well-tolerated. However, systematic toxicological studies have not been conducted. Specific toxicity data, including LD50 values and organ toxicity profiles, are not available. The compound is for research use only.
