Product Data
Biological target:
Ponceau MX is a dye.
In vitro activity:
In this study, this study proposed a two-dimensional (2D) Karnovsky-Roots toluidine blue ponceau 2R (K-B-2R) staining method based upon conventional Karnovsky-Roots staining. It significantly improved the ability to display nerve fascicles, motor and sensory nerve fiber textures. In this method, Karnovsky-Roots staining was carried out, followed by toluidine blue counterstain and ponceau 2R counterstain.

In vivo activity:
In this study, the toxicity of these dyes was assessed in a zebrafish model, and the underlying toxic mechanisms were investigated. Treatment with Basic Violet 14, Direct Red 28 and Acid Red 26 resulted in common developmental abnormalities including delayed yolk sac absorption and swimming bladder deflation. Hepatotoxicity was observed in zebrafish treated with Basic Violet 14, and cardiovascular toxicity was found in zebrafish treated with Acid Red 26 at concentrations higher than 2500 µg ml(-1) . Basic Violet 14 also caused significant up-regulation of GCLC gene expression in a dose-dependent manner whereas Acid Red 26 induced significant up-regulation of NKX2.5 and down-regulation of GATA4 at a high concentration in a dose-dependent manner.
