Description:

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

Dracorhodin Perchlorate is a pro-apoptotic compound and a synthetic analog of dracorhodin, an anthocyanin. It induces cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase as well as apoptosis in U87MG and T98G glioma cells when used at concentrations of 40 and 80 μM. It also increases levels of p53, p21, Bim, and Bax and decreases levels of Bcl-2 in glioma cells in vitro. Dracorhodin perchlorate is cytotoxic to U937, A375-S2, and MCF-7 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. It is also cytotoxic to HeLa cells, an effect that can be reversed by Ac-YVAD-CMK, Z-DEVD-FMK, Z-IETD-FMK, and Z-LEHD-FMK, which are inhibitors of caspase-1, -3, -8, and -9, respectively.

Product Data
Biological target:
Dracorhodin perchlorate inhibits cell proliferation and induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.
In vitro activity:
Quantitative data indicated that dracorhodin perchlorate at 1 µg/ml significantly reduced the wound width at the time point of 24 h and markedly promoted HaCaT cell migration compared with those in control cells (Fig. 2C). Therefore, this suggests that dracorhodin perchlorate enhanced cell migration in HaCaT keratinocytes. Reference: Exp Ther Med. 2021 Aug;22(2):822. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34131445/
In vivo activity:
DP (dracorhodin perchlorate) treatment alleviated the prolonged inflammatory cell infiltration time and the increase in the TLR4 pathway and inflammatory factors caused by diabetes. DP also promoted wound healing by increasing eNOS protein expression and NO content in the later stage of wound healing. DP promotes wound healing in diabetic rats by regulating the TLR4 pathway and related inflammatory factors.
