    Description

    Taxifolin ((+)-Dihydroquercetin) exhibits important anti-tyrosinase activity. Taxifolin exhibits significant inhibitory activity against collagenase with an IC50 value of 193.3 μM[1]. Taxifolin is an important natural compound with antifibrotic activity. Taxifolin is a free radical scavenger with antioxidant capacity[2].

    IC50 & Target

    IC50: 193.3 μM (Collagenase)[1]
    Tyrosinase[1]

    In Vitro

    This is confirmed by the investigation of pure Taxifolin and (+)-Catechin against collagenase activity. Taxifolin exhibits significant inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 193.3 μM while (+)-Catechin is not active[1]. Taxifolin is a ubiquitous bioactive constituent of foods and herbs. Taxifolin (dihydroquercetin) is a bioactive flavanonol commonly found in grapes, citrus fruits, onions, green tea, olive oil, wine, and many other foods, as well as several herbs (such as milk thistle, French maritime bark, Douglas fir bark, and Smilacis Glabrae Rhizoma)[3].

    In Vivo

    Taxifolin may be easily metabolized and that its metabolites are the prevalent form in vivo, although limited information is available on metabolism of Taxifolin in vivo[3].

    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: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (9.04 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (27.5 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: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (9.04 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (27.5 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.

    Rats[3]
    Twelve male Sprague-Dawley rats (weighing 180-220 g) are used. The rats are randomly divided into two groups (six rats per group), a drug group and a blank group. Taxifolin is suspended in 0.5% CMC-Na solution and orally administered to the drug group at a dose of 200 mg/kg body weight, while blank group rats are orally administered 0.5% CMC-Na solution at the same volume. All rats are dosed once a day (at 9:00 a.m.) for 3 days.

    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.
