Description

Cyasterone, a natural EGFR inhibitor, mainly isolated from Ajuga decumbens Thunb (Labiatae). Cyasterone manifests anti-proliferation effect by induced apoptosis and cell cycle arrests. Cyasterone may serves as a therapeutic anti-tumor agent against human tumors[1].

IC50 & Target

IC50: EGFR[1]

In Vitro

Cyasterone exerts cytotoxicity on multiple cell lines: HeLa (IC50=77.24 μg/ml); HepG-2 (IC50=52.03 μg/ml); MCF-7 (IC50=82.07 μg/ml) and MCF-7 (IC50=82.07 μg/ml). And It has none cytotoxicity (IC50>400 μg/ml) on 3 types of carcinoma (HT-29, Caco-2, T47D) and 1 type of normal (NIH 3T3) cell lines[1].
Cyasterone (0-60 μg/ml; 48 hours) causes a significantly decreasing of the cell proliferation. It inhibits cell growth as a dose-dependent manner, exhibits IC50 values of 38.50 μg/ml and 32.96 μg/ml, respectively[1].
Cyasterone (0-60 μg/ml; 24 hours) decreases p-EGFR, p-MEK, and p-mTOR as a dose-dependent manner in A549 cells, it affects the MAPK signaling pathway activities[1].

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    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.80 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.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.80 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

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.
