Biological Activity

Description N-acetylcysteine amide is a membrane penetrating antioxidant with anti-inflamatory activity through regulation of activation of NF-κB and HIF-1α as well as modulation of ROS.
Targets
NF-κB [1] HIF-1α [1] ROS [1]
In vitro

The antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) blocks erastin-induced or RSL3-induced cell death in Nupr1-/- mPDAC cells, an effect that is associated with decreased production or release of MDA, 8-OHdG, or HMGB1. NUPR1-knockdown PANC1 cells exhibits increased MDA, 8-OHdG, and HMGB1 release during ferroptotic cell death, which can be reversed by the addition of NAC.[2]
In vivo

Combined n-acetylcysteine (NAC) and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) therapy alleviates oxidative stress damage to the pancreas and inhibits the inflammatory response to a significantly greater extent than single therapy with either BMSCs or NAC.[3]

Protocol (from reference)

Cell Assay:

[2]
  • Cell lines

    mPDAC cells

  • Concentrations

    1 mM

  • Incubation Time

    24 h

  • Method

    Indicated mPDAC cells are treated with erastin (10 μM) or RSL3 (1 μM) in the absence or presence of DFO (100 M) or N-acetylcysteine (1 mM) for 24 h, and then intracellular MDA, intracellular 8-OHdG, extracellular HMGB1, and cell viability are assayed by a CCK8 kit.
