Product Description
Trifolirhizin is a pterocarpan flavonoid extracted from Sophora flavescens root. Trifolirhizin has efficient tyrosinase inhibitory activity with IC50 of 506 μM. Trifolirhizin has potential anti~inflammatory and anticancer activities.
Trifolirhizin (CAS 6807-83-6), also known as (-)-maackiain-3-O-glucoside or 三叶豆紫檀苷, is a pterocarpan flavonoid extracted from the root of Sophora flavescens. With a molecular formula of C₂₂H₂₂O₁₀ and a molecular weight of 446.40 g/mol, this compound has efficient tyrosinase inhibitory activity with an IC₅₀ of 506 μM. Trifolirhizin has potential anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities. It exerts varying degrees of inhibition on tyrosinase-dependent melanin biosynthesis, making it a candidate as a skin-whitening agent. The compound possesses a wide range of pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, and antiviral effects. Research indicates that Trifolirhizin can inhibit tumor cell proliferation, induce apoptosis, and modulate immune responses. It also demonstrates hepatoprotective and neuroprotective properties by reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory signaling.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Trifolirhizin targets tyrosinase, the key enzyme in melanin biosynthesis, with an IC₅₀ of 506 μM. It also modulates inflammatory and immune responses, contributing to its anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities. The compound can inhibit tumor cell proliferation, induce apoptosis, and modulate immune responses. Its hepatoprotective and neuroprotective effects are mediated through reducing oxidative stress and inflammatory signaling. As a pterocarpan flavonoid, trifolirhizin interacts with multiple cellular pathways involved in melanin synthesis, inflammation, and cancer. The compound's ability to modulate immune responses suggests potential applications in immunotherapy and autoimmune diseases.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies have demonstrated that Trifolirhizin is an efficient inhibitor of tyrosinase, with an IC₅₀ of 506 μM. It exerts cytotoxicity on several cancer cell lines, inhibits tumor cell proliferation, and induces apoptosis. The compound exhibits anti-inflammatory activity by modulating inflammatory signaling pathways. It also demonstrates antioxidant activity and neuroprotective effects by reducing oxidative stress. The compound's ability to modulate immune responses suggests potential applications in immunotherapy and autoimmune diseases. Its hepatoprotective properties further expand its potential therapeutic applications.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Trifolirhizin has demonstrated potential anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities. Its hepatoprotective and neuroprotective properties have been observed in animal models, where it reduces oxidative stress and inflammatory signaling. The compound's ability to inhibit tumor cell proliferation and induce apoptosis suggests potential for cancer therapy. However, comprehensive in vivo efficacy and safety studies are needed to fully evaluate its therapeutic potential. The compound's natural occurrence in Sophora flavescens, a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine, further supports its potential as a lead compound for drug development.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro non-cell enzyme/receptor binding assays for Trifolirhizin typically involve measuring tyrosinase inhibition activity. The compound is incubated with mushroom tyrosinase and a substrate such as L-DOPA or tyrosine, and the production of dopachrome is measured spectrophotometrically at 475 nm. IC₅₀ values are calculated from dose-response curves. The compound's antioxidant activity can be measured using DPPH, ABTS, or FRAP assays. Binding to inflammatory or immune targets can be assessed using ELISA-based assays or surface plasmon resonance. These assays provide quantitative data on the compound's direct interactions with its molecular targets.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Trifolirhizin use various cancer cell lines to study its antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic effects. Cells are cultured in appropriate media and treated with varying concentrations of Trifolirhizin. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or CCK-8 assays, and cell cycle analysis is performed by flow cytometry. Apoptosis is evaluated by Annexin V/PI staining. For anti-inflammatory studies, macrophages or other immune cells stimulated with LPS are used, and the production of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β) is measured by ELISA. The modulation of immune responses is assessed by measuring T-cell proliferation and cytokine production. Neuroprotective effects are studied in neuronal cell lines exposed to oxidative stress.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Trifolirhizin would likely employ models of cancer, inflammation, and neurodegeneration. For anticancer studies, xenograft models using various cancer cell lines can be used. The compound is administered orally or intraperitoneally, and tumor growth is monitored. For anti-inflammatory studies, standard models such as carrageenan-induced paw edema or LPS-induced inflammation can be used. Parameters such as inflammatory cytokine levels, immune cell infiltration, and histopathology of inflamed tissues are assessed. For neuroprotective studies, models of oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration can be used, and parameters such as neuronal survival, oxidative stress markers, and behavioral outcomes are assessed.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Trifolirhizin has a molecular weight of 446.40 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₂₂H₂₂O₁₀. It has a density of 1.6±0.1 g/cm³, a boiling point of 658.7±55.0 °C at 760 mmHg, and a melting point of 142-144°C. The compound has a LogP of 0.75, indicating moderate hydrophilicity. It has four hydrogen bond donors, ten hydrogen bond acceptors, and three rotatable bonds.

Detailed pharmacokinetic parameters have not been extensively characterized.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of Trifolirhizin has not been comprehensively evaluated in published studies. As a natural flavonoid from Sophora flavescens, which has a history of use in traditional medicine, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. No specific toxicity data, such as LD₅₀ values or organ-specific toxicity, have been reported in the available literature. The compound is classified as a research reagent and is not intended for human therapeutic use without further safety evaluation. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling the compound, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area. The compound should be protected from light during transportation and storage.
