Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Paeoniflorin is a natural monoterpene glucoside isolated from the root of Paeonia albiflora Pall. with broad anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. It suppresses cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression and modulates key downstream signaling pathways, including NF-kB and mTOR. Through these mechanisms, paeoniflorin downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines, attenuates cellular activation, and alleviates tissue damage across various inflammatory and fibrotic disease models.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
