Hypaphorine is an indole alkaloid isolated from Caragana korshinskii. Hypaphorine has neurological and glucose-lowering effects. Hypaphorine prevents Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) (HY-D1056)-mediated acute lung injury (ALI) and proinflammatory response via inactivating the p38/JNK signaling pathway by upregulating DUSP1.

Description

Hypaphorine is an indole alkaloid isolated from Caragana korshinskii. Hypaphorine has neurological and glucose-lowering effects. Hypaphorine prevents Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) (HY-D1056)-mediated acute lung injury (ALI) and proinflammatory response via inactivating the p38/JNK signaling pathway by upregulating DUSP1[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Hypaphorine (6.25-100μM, 24 h) inhibits the Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) (HY-D1056)-mediated apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells[2].
Hypaphorine (12.5-50 μM, 48 h) attenuates the expression of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-18) and inactivates the p38/JNK signaling pathway through up-regulating DUSP1 in a dose-dependent manner[2].
Hypaphorine reverses inhibition of E. globulus seedling root growth induced by 3-Indoleacetic acid (indole-3-acetic acid) (HY-18569)[3].

Apoptosis Analysis[2]

Cell Line: BEAS-2B lung epithelial cells
Concentration: 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 μM
Incubation Time: 24 h
Result: Cell viability was not changed when the dose was less than 50 μM, cell viability decreased significantly at 100 μM.
Cell viability was elevated dose-dependently (12.5, 25, 50 μM) in an ALI model.
The expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and Caspase3 was dampened, while the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl2 was increased significantly in a dose-dependent manner.

RT-PCR[2]

Cell Line: BEAS-2B lung epithelial cells
Concentration: 12.5, 25, 50 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Promoted the level of DUSP1 mRNA in dose-dependent manner.
DUSP1 was significantly upregulated after LPS treatment.

Western Blot Analysis[2]

Cell Line: BEAS-2B lung epithelial cells
Concentration: 12.5, 25, 50 μM
Incubation Time: 48 h
Result: Distinctly strengthened the DUSP1 expression and inactivated p38/JNK pathway.
Enhanced DUSP1 protein level and inactivated the p38/JNK signaling pathway after LPS treatment.
In Vivo

Hypaphorine (10 mg/kg; i.p.; 2 hours after the LPS injection) relieves LPS induced acute lung injury (ALI) in rats with anti-inflammatory effects[2].
Hypaphorine (50 mg/kg; i.p.; once) has antihyperglycemic activity[4].

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

Animal Model: Male albino rats of Wistar/Sprague-Dawley strain (8-10 weeks, 160 g) made diabetic by intraperitoneal injection of Streptozotocin (HY-13753)[4]
Dosage: 50 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.); once
Result: Showed significant anti-hyperglycemic activity (27.8% at 5 h and 20.4% at 24 h).
Animal Model: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200-220 g) treated with LPS[2]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg
Administration: Intraperitoneal injection (i.p.); 2 hours after the LPS injection
Result: Alleviated the histological changes in lung tissues induced by LPS, including severe inflammatory cell infiltration, thickened alveolar walls, obvious diffuse edema, narrowed alveolar space, strengthened interstitial congestion, serious pathological damage and higher scores.
Reduced BALF cells and neutrophils increased by LPS.
Attenuated the wet/dry weight ratio, capillary permeability and d myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity facilitated by LPS.

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.
