| Bioactivity | Hydrocotarnine is a Cbl inhibitor, and results in inflammasome-mediated IL-18 secretion in colitis. Hydrocotarnine increases expression of GLUT1 and cellular glucose uptake in glycolytic metabolism. Hydrocotarnine acts as an agent that provides analgesic effect in cancer research[1][2][3]. | ||||||||||||
| Target | Cbl | ||||||||||||
| Invitro | Hydrocotarnine is an analgesic agent (CRIN-2), with the patent ID of WO2011160016A2[1].Hydrocotarnine (10 μM; 1 h) elevates the secretion of IL-1β and IL-18, and (0.1-10 μM; 1 h) increases the global level of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in THP-1 cells[1]. Hydrocotarnine (50 μM; 0-100 min) increases the glycolytic capacity and glycolytic reserve capacity in THP-1-derived macrophages[2].Hydrocotarnine (50 μM; 16 h) inhibits Cbl and increases the total GLUT1 protein in THP-1-derived macrophages[2].Hydrocotarnine is known to enhance the analgesic effect of opioids, and alleviates cancer pain[3].

| In Vivo | Hydrocotarnine (10 mg/kg/d; i.p.; 9 d) shows inhibitory effect on Cbl and results in increasing IL-18 levels, indicating that NLRP3 inflammasome activation is enhanced in mice[1].Hydrocotarnine (10 mg/kg/d; i.p.; 9 d) protects mice from DSS-induced colitis, with low scores of pathological evaluation of inflammation, epithelial defects, and crypt atrophy[1].
