Description:

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

MDN99781, also known as 2-O-α-D-Glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid is a glucosylated derivative of L-ascorbic acid that has antioxidant and radioprotective activities. It scavenges 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radicals in a cell-free assay. AA-2G inhibits γ-radiation-induced cell death in CHO-10B2 and radiosensitive xrs5 cells, as well as UVC- or broadband UVB-induced cell death in CHO-10B2 and UV-sensitive UV135 cells. It is hydrolyzed to ascorbic acid by α-glucosidase and increases serum levels of ascorbic acid in rats and guinea pigs when administered orally at doses of 19.2 and 96 mg/animal, respectively. AA-2G reverses weight loss and inhibits subcutaneous hemorrhage in guinea pigs fed a vitamin C-deficient diet. This product has no formal name at the moment. For the convenience of communication, a temporary code name was therefore proposed according to MedKoo Chemical Nomenclature (see web page: https://www.medkoo.com/page/naming).

Product Data
Biological target:
MDN99781, also known as 2-O-α-D-Glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid is a glucosylated derivative of L-ascorbic acid that has antioxidant and radioprotective activities.
In vitro activity:
Pretreatment with DMSO, AA, and AA2G (MDN99781) showed comparative protective effects in CHO wild type and radiosensitive xrs5 cells for cell death against ionizing radiation with reducing the number of radiation-induced DNA damages. These results suggest that AA2G protects cells from radiation by acting as a radical scavenger to reduce initial DNA damage, as well as protecting cells from certain UVB wavelengths by filtration. Reference: Genes (Basel). 2020 Feb 25;11(3):238. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32106443/
In vivo activity:
AA2G (MDN99781) treatment reduced the intestinal damage (shortening of villi) but did not reduce antitumor effectiveness of radiotherapy against bladder tumors. AA2G treatment significantly increased CD163+/CD68+ macrophage ratio in the ilea of rats after pelvic irradiation in comparison to the sham irradiated control rats. AA2G treatment increased, albeit not significantly, the CD163+/CD68+ macrophage ratio in the irradiated bladders relative to the control irradiated rats.
