Description

Citric acid trisodium is a natural preservative and food tartness enhancer. Citric acid trisodium induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and S phase. Citric acid trisodium cause oxidative damage of the liver by means of the decrease of antioxidative enzyme activities. Citric acid trisodium causes renal toxicity in mice[1][2][3].

IC50 & Target

Human Endogenous Metabolite

 

In Vitro

Citric acid trisodium (0-12.5 mM; 24 h) shows antiproliferative activity in a dose dependent manner[3].
Citric acid trisodium (12.5 mM; 72 h) induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at G2/M phase and S phase in a dosedependent manner[3].
Citric acid trisodium (12.5 mM; 48 h) increases the expression of FAS, BAX, BID, AIF, EndoG, cytochrome c, PARP, GADD153, GRP78 and caspase-3, -8, -9, and decreases of BCL-2 and BCL-Xl[3].

Cell Viability Assay[3]

Cell Line: HaCaT cells
Concentration: 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 mM
Incubation Time: 24 h

Cell Cycle Analysis[3]

Cell Line: HaCaT cells
Concentration: 12.5 mM
Incubation Time: 0, 12, 24, 48, 72 h

Western Blot Analysis[3]

Cell Line: HaCaT cells
Concentration: 12.5 mM
Incubation Time: 12, 24, 48 h
Result: Increased the expression of FAS, BAX, BID, AIF, EndoG, cytochrome c, PARP, GADD153, GRP78 and caspase-3, -8, -9, and decreased of BCL-2 and BCL-Xl.
In Vivo

Citric acid trisodium (120, 240, and 480 mg/kg; i.p.) significantly decreases GSH-Px activity and induces an increase in the MDA (malonyldialdehyde) levels in mouse liver[1].
Citric acid trisodium (120, 240, and 480 mg/kg; i.p.) induces apoptosis by increases caspase-3 activity in a dose-dependent manner in mouse hepatocytes[1].
Citric acid trisodium (120, 240, and 480 mg/kg; i.p.; weekly for 3 weeks) causes renal toxicity in mice[2].

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

Animal Model: 20 g male Kunming mice[2]
Dosage: 120, 240, 480 mg/kg
Administration: I.p.; weekly for 3 weeks
Result: T-SOD and GSH-Px activities in the treated groups decreased with increasing doses of citric acid, NOS activity tended to increase, and H2O2 and MDA contents gradually decreased.

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.
