Description

Moringin is a potent and selective TRPA1 ion channel natural agonist with an EC50 of 3.14 μM. Moringin does not activate or activates very weakly the vanilloids somatosensory channels TRPV1, TRPV2, TRPV3 and TRPV4, and the melastatin cooling receptor TRPM8. Moringin has hypoglycemic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer and neuroprotection activities[1][2].

In Vitro

In SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells, Moringin (16.4 µM; 24-72 h) significantly reduces SH-SY5Y cell growth in a time and concentration-dependent manner[2].
Moringin (1.64-8.2 μM; 24 h) increases the expression of p53, p21, and Bax at both the protein and transcriptional level in SH-SY5Y cells. Moringin significantly increases the gene expression of both caspase 3 and 9 and enhanced their cleavage, thereby initiating an intrinsic apoptotic cascade[2].
Moringin inhibits nuclear translocation of NF-κB[2].

In Vivo

In experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) mice, Moringin (10 mg/kg; intraperitoneally daily for 5 week) pretreatment normalizes the aberrant Wnt-β-catenin pathway, resulting in GSK3β inhibition and β-catenin upregulation, which regulates T-cell activation (CD4 and FoxP3), suppresses the main inflammatory mediators (IL-1β, IL-6, and COX2), through activation of PPARγ. Moringin increases antioxidant Nrf2 expression in EAE mice[3].

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 (8.03 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 (8.03 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.
