Description:

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

Purpurogallin, also known as PPG, is the aglycon of several glycosides from nutgalls and oak barks. Purpurogallin can inhibit hydroxyestradiol methylation by catechol-O-methyltransferase. Purpurogallin potently and specifically inhibits PLK, TLR1/TLR2 activation pathway. Purpurogallin showed antiplatelet and antithrombotic activities; anti‑inflammatory effects; antitumor activity, anti-oxidation activities; hepatoprotecting effects; antibacterial activity toward gram-positive bacteria.

Product Data
Biological target:
Purpurogallin is effective against Gram-positive bacteria (MICs: 11-110 µg/ml), Gram-negative bacteria (MIC: 110 µg/ml), and P. falciparum strain FCB1 clone NC-1 (IC50: 55 µM). It scavenges DPPH radicals and reduces ROS production in keratinocytes. Purpurogallin inhibits EGFR (IC50: 27.5 µM), GST (IC50: 8 µM), prolyl endopeptidase (IC50: 16 µM), glyoxalase I (IC50: 50 µM), and COMT (Ki: 0.074 µM) in cell-free assays.
In vitro activity:
Purpurogallin effectively shields human HaCaT keratinocytes from the destructive effects of UVB radiation and particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5). It prevents apoptosis induced by UVB radiation and PM2.5 and influences the balance of pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic proteins through caspase signaling pathways when exposed to UVB irradiation. Purpurogallin reduced apoptosis through MAPK signaling pathways. Reference: Biomol Ther (Seoul). 2019 Jul 1;27(4):395-403. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30419635/
In vivo activity:
Purpurogallin demonstrated neuroprotective activity against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO/R) mouse model. Purpurogallin treatment reduced cerebral infarct area, cerebral edema, and neurological deficits in MCAO/R mice. It decreased neuronal apoptosis, levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress proteins, and inflammatory factors in the peri-infarct region of the brain. Purpurogallin acted by blocking the TLR4/NF-κB pathway in the MCAO/R mouse model. Reference: Int Immunopharmacol. 2022 Oct;111:109057. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35964408/
