Bioactivity

• Target IC50:
  COX-2:100 μg/mL.
• In Vivo:
  Asaraldehyde (100 μg/mL) exhibits a higher inhibitory effect on COX-2. At the same concentration, it mildly inhibits the activity of prostaglandin H synthase-1 (3.32%) and significantly inhibits prostaglandin H synthase-2 (52.69%). Moreover, Asaraldehyde downregulates C/EBPβ, C/EBPδ, and C/EBPα and suppresses the expression of PPARγ1, PPARγ2, and acetyl-CoA carboxylase.

• Cell Research:
  3T3-L1 cells are seeded in 96-well plates at a concentration of 104 /well. Twenty-four hours after seeding, the cells are treated with 100 μg/mL of Asaraldehyde for 24 hours or for the whole 8-day differentiation period. Fully differentiated adipocytes are also treated with 100 μg/mL of Asaraldehyde for 24 hours-72 hours to test the cytotoxicity. At the end of treatment, cells are cultured with MTT at a final concentration of 0.5 mg/mL for another 4 hours. The purple MTT formazan is dissolved by DMSO and the absorbance at 570 nm is taken with a spectrophotometer. The absorbance is proportional to the viability of adipocytes.(Only for Reference)
