Description

Egg oil is a natural oil, which consists primarily of cholesterol, lecithin and glycerides of the fatty acids. Egg oil exhibits activity in regulating the gut microbial dysbiosis, alleviating obesity, insulin resistance and inflammation[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Egg oil (0.1-0.8 mg/ml) reduces IL-8 secretion and exerts anti-inflammatory efficacy through Nrf2/NF-kB signaling pathway[2].
Egg oil (10-600 μg/ml) extracted from sea urchin attenuates 7β-OHC induced cytotoxicity, modulates activity of antioxidant enzyme and reduces production of MDA and CD, exhibits thus protective efficacy against neurodegenerative diseases[4].

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

Cell Viability Assay[2]

Cell Line: Caco2
Concentration: 0.1-0.8 mg/ml
Incubation Time: 2 h
Result: Maintained cell viability.
In Vivo

Egg oil (150-600 mg/kg, i.g. for 16 weeks) extracted from Portunus trituberculatus improves insulin sensibility and hepatic glycogen synthesis, alleviates insulin resistance through activation of PI3K/Akt/Glu4 signaling in skeletal muscle and PI3K/Akt/GSK3β/GS pathway in the liver[1].
Egg oil (150-600 mg/kg, i.g. for 16 weeks) extracted from Portunus trituberculatus amliorates HFD-induced obesity in mice, restores the gut microbial dysbiosis and down-regulates the LPS/TLR4 pathway in liver and epididymal adipose[3].

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

Animal Model: High-fat-diet feeding C57BL/6J mice[1][3]
Dosage: 150-600 mg/kg
Administration: i.g. for 16 weeks
Result: Reduced body weight, adipose weight gain, blood glucose and lipids.
Increased mRNA levels of PI3K, Akt, IPS1/2, Glu4, GSK3β and GS i muscle and liver.

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% Corn Oil

    Solubility: ≥ 5 mg/mL; Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 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 (50.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

 If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.
Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.

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.
