Product Description
Wighteone is a compound extracted from the aerial parts of Genista ephedroides.
Wighteone (also known as Erythrinin B) is a naturally occurring isoflavone isolated from various plant sources, including Glycyrrhiza glabra, Ficus mucuso, and Genista ephedroides. It has the molecular formula C₂₀H₁₈O₅. Wighteone is an antifungal agent and exhibits potent anti-proliferative effects on human leukemia HL-60 cancer cell lines. It also has in vitro cytocidal activity against KB cells and can effectively inhibit the proliferation of EGFR L858R/T790M mutant non-small cell lung cancer by downregulating HSP90 receptor and downstream signaling.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Wighteone targets HSP90 receptor and downstream signaling pathways in cancer cells. It has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of EGFR L858R/T790M mutant non-small cell lung cancer. As an isoflavone, Wighteone may also interact with estrogen receptors and other signaling molecules involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis. Its antifungal activity suggests additional targets in fungal pathogens. The compound's anti-proliferative effects are mediated through multiple mechanisms involving cell cycle regulation and apoptosis induction.
ln Vitro
Wighteone exhibits potent anti-proliferative effects on human leukemia HL-60 cancer cell lines. It has in vitro cytocidal activity against KB cells. The compound effectively inhibits the proliferation of EGFR L858R/T790M mutant non-small cell lung cancer through downregulation of HSP90 receptor and downstream signaling. It also displays antifungal activity. These activities suggest broad-spectrum anticancer and antimicrobial potential.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity data for Wighteone are limited in the available literature. Based on its potent in vitro anti-proliferative activity against various cancer cell lines, it is anticipated to have potential in vivo antitumor efficacy. However, specific animal studies detailing its therapeutic effects, dosing, and pharmacokinetics are not extensively documented.
Enzyme Assay
The non-cellular enzyme/receptor binding assay for Wighteone would typically involve binding studies to assess its interaction with HSP90. HSP90 binding affinity can be measured using surface plasmon resonance (SPR), isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), or fluorescence polarization assays. The compound's ability to inhibit HSP90 ATPase activity can be evaluated using a malachite green assay measuring inorganic phosphate release. Alternatively, binding to estrogen receptors or other targets can be assessed using radioligand binding assays.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for Wighteone typically use cancer cell lines such as HL-60 leukemia cells, KB cells, and EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Cells are treated with various concentrations of the compound for 24-72 hours. Cell proliferation is assessed using MTT, CCK-8, or trypan blue exclusion assays. Apoptosis is detected by Annexin V/PI staining and caspase activity assays. HSP90 and downstream signaling protein expression is analyzed by Western blotting.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Wighteone are not extensively documented. Based on its anticancer activity, typical study designs would involve xenograft mouse models bearing human cancer cells such as HL-60 or EGFR-mutant lung cancer cells. Wighteone would be administered orally or intraperitoneally at varying doses. Tumor growth inhibition, body weight changes, and survival rates would be monitored. Tumor tissues would be analyzed for proliferation and apoptosis markers.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Wighteone are not extensively characterized. As an isoflavone with molecular weight 338.36, it is expected to have moderate oral bioavailability. Isoflavones are generally absorbed and undergo enterohepatic circulation. Metabolic pathways likely involve phase I oxidation and phase II conjugation (glucuronidation and sulfation). Specific PK parameters such as half-life, Cmax, and bioavailability are not well documented.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Wighteone are limited. As a naturally occurring isoflavone, it is generally considered to have low toxicity at moderate doses. However, comprehensive toxicology studies are not available. The compound may cause skin and eye irritation upon contact. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound.

Additional Infomation
Wighteone belongs to the 7-hydroxyisoflavone class of compounds, with hydroxyl groups substituted at positions 5, 7, and 4', and an isopentenyl group substituted at position 6. It has been isolated from the banyan tree (Ficus mucuso). Wighteone is a plant metabolite and antifungal agent, and its function is related to isoflavones. It has been reported to exist in apple wood (Maclura pomifera), herbaceous wood (Anthyllis hermanniae), and other organisms with relevant data.
Wighteone is a research-grade natural product intended for laboratory use only. It is not approved for clinical use as a therapeutic agent. Its primary applications include studying the anticancer mechanisms of isoflavones, investigating HSP90 inhibition and EGFR mutant cancer therapy, and exploring antifungal activities of natural products. The compound serves as a valuable tool for natural product and cancer research.

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
