Echinacoside Tyrosinase activator

Cat.No.S3783

Echinacoside, a natural polyphenolic compound, has various biological activities, such as antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, hepatoprotective, nitric oxide radical-scavenging and vasodilative actions. This compound, one of the phenylethanoids isolated from the stems of Cistanche salsa, elicits neuroprotection by activating Trk receptors and their downstream signal pathways. It also has a remarkable antiosteoporotic activity.

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

Mechanism of Action

In vitro
Echinacoside behaves in vitro as an anti-oxidant and a potent free radical scavenger. It has been shown to rescue SH-SY5Y neuronal cells from TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis. This compound significantly attenuates glutamate-induced neurotoxicity and exhibits neuroprotective activities in vitro[1]. It has significant neuroprotective effects on TNFα-induced apoptosis in SHSY5Y neuronal cells by maintaining mitochondrial function, decreasing the generation of reactive oxygen species, increasing the expression of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2 and inhibiting caspase-3 activity through an antioxidation mechanism[2].
In vivo
Echinacoside has neuroprotective effects in the mouse MPTP model of Parkinson's disease. Treatment with this compound improves motor behavior and attenuated the depletion of striatal dopamine, DOPAC and HVA in MPTP-lesioned mice[1].
