Description:

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

Gossypetin is a flavonoid that has been found in H. sabdariffa and has diverse biological activities. It inhibits the MAP2K kinases MKK3 and MKK6 in a concentration-dependent manner, as well as induces apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at the G2 phase in KYSE-450 and KYSE-510 esophageal cancer cells when used at a concentration of 20 µM. Gossypetin scavenges DPPH radicals and inhibits copper-induced lipid peroxidation in cell-free assays. It reduces high-fat diet-induced increases in serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL-cholesterol levels, as well as decreases aortic extracellular lipid and foam cell deposits in a rabbit model of atherosclerosis when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg.

Product Data
Biological target:
Gossypetin is a hexahydroxylated flavonoid and is a potent mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MKK)3 and MKK6 inhibitor with strongly attenuates the MKK3/6-p38 signaling pathway, has various pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, antibacterial and anticancer activities.
In vitro activity:
To verify if GTIN (gossypetin) induced the up-regulation of cdk inhibitors, contributing to inhibit cyclin/cdks activities, A7r5 cells were treated with GTIN at the indicated doses. As shown in Figure 2c, there was a significant reduction in expression of cyclin E/cdk-2 complex in the GTIN treatments, while no change in cyclin D1/cdk-4 complex. These results concluded that cyclin E/cdk-2 and Rb/E2F1 complexes participated in the GTIN-induced VSMCs cell-cycle arrest at G0/G1 stage.

In vivo activity:
Gossypetin caused G2 phase cell cycle arrest and induced intrinsic apoptosis by activating caspases 3 and 7 and increasing the expression of BAX and cytochrome c. Notably, gossypetin suppressed patient-derived esophageal xenograft tumor growth in an in vivo mouse model. Reference: Cancer Lett. 2019 Feb 1;442:126-136. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30391783/
