Cat. No.: HY-Y0790 Purity: 99.03%
COA Handling Instructions

Cuminaldehyde is the main component of Cuminum cyminum and has multiple biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-injury, anti-neuropathy and antibacterial effects. Cuminaldehyde is an inhibitor of aldose reductase (IC50= 0.00085 mg/mL), α-glucosidase (IC50=0.5 mg/mL) and lipoxygenase (IC50=1370 μM). Cuminaldehyde has potential application value in the research of neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, diabetes and neuropathic pain diseases.

Description

Cuminaldehyde is the main component of Cuminum cyminum and has multiple biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-injury, anti-neuropathy and antibacterial effects. Cuminaldehyde is an inhibitor of aldose reductase (IC50= 0.00085 mg/mL), α-glucosidase (IC50=0.5 mg/mL) and lipoxygenase (IC50=1370 μM). Cuminaldehyde has potential application value in the research of neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, diabetes and neuropathic pain diseases[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].

In Vitro

Cuminaldehyde (1 mM; 24-96 h) can effectively inhibit α-synuclein (α-SN) fibrillation. The presence of α-SN fibrillation inducer Spermidine (HY-B1776) enhances the inhibitory effect, which is even stronger than the inhibitory effect of Baicalein (HY-N0196)[1].
Cuminaldehyde (0-160 μM; 12-48 h) inhibits the proliferation of human colon COLO 205 cells and induces cell apoptosis[2].
Cuminaldehyde (0.5 and 1.5 μM; 5 d) inhibits the growth of Aspergillus flavus (IC50=0.25 μL/mL) and induces necrosis of Aspergillus flavus[5].
Cuminaldehyde (0-0.8 μL/mL; 5 d) inhibits the synthesis of aflatoxin (AFB1), a secondary metabolite of Aspergillus flavus[5].

In Vivo

Cuminaldehyde (5-20 mg/kg; intratumoral injection; once a day for 42 days) inhibits tumor growth in mice bearing human colorectal cancer COLO 205 xenografts[2].
Cuminaldehyde (50-200 mg/kg; i.g.; single dose injection 30 minutes before hot plate test) significantly reduces the latency of nociceptive response in rats in hot plate test[6].
Cuminaldehyde (12.5-50 mg/kg; i.p.; single dose injection 30 minutes before the test) significantly inhibits pain perception in mice with abdominal pain induced by Acetic acid (HY-Y0319) and formalin[6].
Cuminaldehyde (25-100 mg/kg; i.p.; once daily for 14 days) significantly alleviates allodynia and hyperalgesia in rats with chronic constriction injury (CCI) model[6].

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 (16.87 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 (16.87 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.

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.
