Sophocarpine monohydrate, a natural product found in Sophora alopecuroides, has a wide range of pharmacological effects (anti-viral, anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory). Sophocarpine exerts anti-cachectic effects by inhibiting TNF-α and IL-6 production in both RAW264.7 cells and murine primary macrophages. Sophocarpine also shows antivirus activity by inhibiting HHV-6 replication in Molt-3 cells. In addition, Sophocarpine is a potent blocker of HERG K+ channels with an IC50 of about 200 mM.

ln Vitro |
Sophocarpine is one of the major ingredients of Sophorae flavescentis which could inhibits many kinds of cancers. However, the effect of sophocarpine on gastric cancer (GC) and the mechanism involved remain unknown. The present study aims to explore the effects of the sophocarpine on the proliferation and apoptosis of GC cells and elucidates the relevant molecular mechanisms. After treatment with sophocarpine, GC cells were evaluated on their proliferation, autophagy, cell cycle progress and apoptosis. The protein levels of LC3-I, LC3-II, Beclin, p62, PTEN, PI3K, p53, Bax, Bcl-2, AKT and p-AKT were detected by western blot. Sophocarpine inhibited the proliferation of GC cells both in vitro and in vivo dose-dependently. Sophocarpine not only caused cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase but also induced cell autophagy. Moreover, sophocarpine dose-dependently suppressed PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and activated apoptosis in gastric cancer cells. Thus, sophocarpine significantly inhibited the growth of GC cells through multiple mechanisms such as induction of autophagy, activation of cell apoptosis and down-regulation of cell survival signaling pathway [1].

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.44 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 20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (8.44 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 20.8 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.
