Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Pinostrobin is a flavonoid with diverse biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. Pinostrobin is a dietary bioflavonoid discovered more than 6 decades ago in the heart-wood of pine (Pinus strobus). Pinostrobin has depicted many pharmacological activities including anti-viral, anti-oxidant, anti-leukaemic, anti-inflammatory and anti-aromatase activities. It is an inhibitor of sodium channel and Ca(2+) signalling pathways and also inhibits intestinal smooth muscle contractions.

Product Data
Biological target:
Pinostrobin is a flavonoid with diverse biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties.
In vitro activity:
This study attempted to explore the mechanisms involved in pinostrobin (PN)-mediated acute leukemia cell apoptosis regulated by miR-410-5p. The results showed that PN reduced cell viability and induced apoptosis in both leukemia cell lines. From the LC-MS/MS and bioinformatics analysis, SFRP5 and miR-410-5p were selected as a potential PN target protein and miRNA, respectively. After miRNA mimic transfection, miR-410-5p, which is an onco-miRNA, was decreased and led to increased apoptosis in both cell lines, indicating that this miRNA is involved in PN-mediated apoptosis mechanisms.

In vivo activity:
The current study was designed to elucidate the mitigative effects of PN against PS-MPs (polystyrene microplastics) induced testicular toxicities in rats. PS-MPs intoxication substantially lessened the activities of glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione reductase (GSR), superoxide dismutase (SOD) along with catalase (CAT) while, raised the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) as well as reactive oxygen species (ROS). Additionally, PS-MPs reduced luteinizing hormone (LH), plasma testosterone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) concentration, sperm motility, sperm count, expression of steroidogenic enzymes and Bcl-2 (anti-apoptotic protein) along with the count of spermatogenic cells. While, dead sperm count, sperm abnormalities (tail, neck and head), Bax and caspase-3 (apoptotic proteins) expression along with histopathological anomalies were elevated. Moreover, PS-MPs exposure increased the level of inflammatory markers. However, PN treatment considerably decreased oxidative stress (OS) by reducing ROS as well as increased sperm motility and alleviated all the damages induced by the PS-MPs.
