Description

Paradol is a pungent phenolic substance found in ginger and other Zingiberaceae plants. Paradol is an effective inhibitor of tumor promotion in mouse skin carcinogenesis, binds to cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 active site.

IC50 & Target[1]

COX-2

 

In Vitro

Paradol ([6]-paradol) induces apoptosis in an oral squamous carcinoma cell line, KB, in a dose-dependent manner. Paradol induces apoptosis through a caspase-3-dependent mechanism[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

In Vivo

Administration of Paradol (6-paradol) (10 mg/kg) clearly reduces the number of Iba1-positive cells 1 and 3 days after the challenge. Moreover, Paradol dramatically reduces the number of Iba1-postive cells in periischemic regions even after 3 days following M/R challenge[3]. Paradol (6-paradol) exhibits the strongest anti-inflammatory effect of several paradol compounds in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BV2 microglia derived from a mouse brain, including 2-, 4-, 6-, 8-, and 10-paradol. Furthermore, Paradol shows the strongest pungency of all of the known paradol analogues. Paradol also shows the highest contact time at the antiobesity site of action on the basis of the results shown for the absorption of the metabolites in this study[4].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.98 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.98 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Cell Assay
[2]

KB, human oral epidermoid carcinoma cell lines (ATCC CCL-17) are plated at a density of 5×103 cells/200 μL/well into 96-well plate. After an overnight growth, the cells are treated with a series of paradol derivatives. All of the derivatives of paradol tested are dissolved in DMSO. The final concentration of DMSO in the culture medium is kept below 0.1% and the controls are treated with DMSO alone. Cell viability is assessed using MTT assay. In brief, after the cells are grown in the media in the absence or presence of the test compounds (e.g., Paradol, 10, 50, 100, 150, and 200 μM) for 48 h, they are then replaced to a 200 μL culture medium containing 0.5 mg/mL MTT for 3 h. The resulting MTT-formazan product is dissolved by an addition of the same volume of DMSO. The amount of formazan is determined by measuring the absorbance at 570 nm[2].

Animal Administration
[3][4]

Mice[3]
Male ICR mice (7 weeks old, 36±2 g) challenged with middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)/reperfusion (M/R) are randomly divided into vehicle (10% Tween80)- or Paradol-administered groups (n=6~7 per group). Paradol dissolved in 10% Tween80 is orally administered (10 mg/kg) into mice at 1, 5, or 10 mg/kg immediately after reperfusion.
Rats[4]
Five-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats (male) are used. At 8 weeks of age, the rats are fasted for 14 h prior to the oral administration of olive oil (1 mL) containing zingerone or 6-, 8-, or 12-paradol (10 mg/kg). Three rats in each group are anesthetized with isoflurane, and samples (0.3 mL) of their blood are collected from their jugular vein using a heparinized needle and syringe at 0 (i.e., prior to the oral administration), 0.25, 0.5, 1, 3, 6, and 24 h after the oral administration of the olive oil containing test compounds. The AUC0-24h values determined using this time schedule are very similar compared with AUC0-24h that sampled the time points more minutely with other materials in our laboratory.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
