Product Description
Sinapine thiocyanate is an alkaloid extracted from the seeds of Brassicaceae species. Sinapine thiocyanate has anti~inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-angiogenic and radioprotective effects. Sinapine thiocyanate is also an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor and has been utilized in study/research of Alzheimer's disease (AD), ataxia, myasthenia gravis and Parkinson's disease (PD).
Sinapine thiocyanate (CAS# 7431-77-8) is an alkaloid isolated from seeds of cruciferous plants. It is the choline ester of sinapic acid and exists as a phenolic-choline conjugate. This compound exhibits a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, anti-angiogenic, and radioprotective effects. It also functions as an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor and has been investigated for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, ataxia, and myasthenia gravis.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Sinapine thiocyanate targets acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an enzyme responsible for hydrolyzing the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the synaptic cleft. It also targets P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a membrane transporter involved in multidrug resistance. The compound downregulates multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) expression. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities are mediated through modulation of oxidative stress pathways and cytokine production.
ln Vitro
Sinapine (6 or 60 μM; 1 hour) counteracts H2O2 and antimycin A-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes [1]. Sinapine (10-200 μM; 24 h) reduces the growth of Caco-2 cells in a dose-dependent manner with relatively moderate toxicity [3]. Sinapine (10-200 μM; 24 hours) enhances the accumulation of doxorubicin in Caco-2 cells via producing a reduction in P-glycoprotein (P-gp) [3]. Sinapine (10-200 μM; 24 hours) significantly lowers the phosphorylation of FRS2α and ERK1/2 [3].
In vitro, Sinapine thiocyanate (6 or 60 µM; 1 hour) counteracts H₂O₂- and antimycin A-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes. It inhibits the proliferation of Caco-2 colon cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner (10-200 µM; 24 hours) with relatively low toxicity. At 10-200 µM, it promotes doxorubicin accumulation in Caco-2 cells by inducing P-gp decrease. It significantly reduces phosphorylation of FRS2α and ERK1/2. It also inhibits AChE activity with an IC50 in the micromolar range.
ln Vivo
By altering the makeup of the intestinal microbiota in mice, sinapine lowers the incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease [2].
In vivo, Sinapine thiocyanate reduces non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in mice by modulating the composition of the gut microbiota. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties have been demonstrated in animal models of oxidative stress. The compound exhibits radioprotective effects, suggesting potential utility in protecting against radiation-induced damage. In models of neurodegeneration, AChE inhibition may improve cholinergic transmission and cognitive function.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for Sinapine thiocyanate are conducted to evaluate acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition. AChE activity is measured using Ellman's colorimetric method, where the enzyme hydrolyzes acetylthiocholine to produce thiocholine, which reacts with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) to form a yellow chromophore measured at 412 nm. The compound is incubated with AChE and substrate at varying concentrations, and IC50 values are calculated from inhibition curves.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Sinapine thiocyanate are performed using Caco-2 colon cancer cells and cardiomyocytes. Cells are seeded in multi-well plates and treated with compound concentrations ranging from 6 to 200 µM for 1 to 24 hours. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays. P-gp expression and function are evaluated by Western blotting and intracellular accumulation of fluorescent substrates such as rhodamine 123. Mitochondrial oxidative stress is measured using fluorescent probes such as MitoSOX or DCFH-DA.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Sinapine thiocyanate have been conducted in mouse models of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Mice are administered the compound orally or intraperitoneally, and gut microbiota composition is analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing. Liver histology, serum biomarkers (ALT, AST), and inflammatory cytokine levels are assessed. Radioprotective effects are evaluated in irradiation models. Neuroprotective efficacy is assessed in cognitive or neurodegenerative disease models.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for Sinapine thiocyanate are limited. The compound has a molecular weight of 368.45 and is soluble in DMSO (≥125 mg/mL). It is likely to be absorbed following oral administration, but bioavailability may be influenced by P-gp-mediated efflux. Metabolic pathways may involve hydrolysis of the choline ester and conjugation reactions. Further PK studies are needed to fully characterize its absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Sinapine thiocyanate are limited. In vitro studies in Caco-2 cells indicate relatively low toxicity at concentrations up to 200 µM. The compound has been used in research settings without reports of significant adverse effects. Standard toxicity screening would involve acute and repeated-dose studies in rodents with evaluation of clinical signs, body weight, hematology, clinical chemistry, and histopathology.
