Biological Activity
Targets | Natural flavone; anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, anti-oxidant, neuroprotective, anti-fungal activities |
ln Vitro | In LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages, 4′-Hydroxywogonin (8-Methoxyapigenin; 0.5-15 μM; 0-24 h) suppresses iNOS and COX-2 expression, which prevents NO and PGE2 production[1]. It also displays low cytotoxicity. -Induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines by LPS in RAW 264.7 macrophages and inhibition of LPS-induced activation of NF-κB are both inhibited by hydroxywogonin (0.5-15 μM; 1 and 12 h)[1]. RAW 264.7 macrophages treated with 4′-hydroxywogonin (0.5–15 μM; 1 h) are less susceptible to LPS-induced IκB–α degradation, TAK and IKK activation, and MAPK and AKTin phosphorylation[1]. In LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages, 4′-hydroxywogonin (0.5–15 μM; 24 h) minimizes ROS production[1]. When exposed to concentrations and times that vary, 4′-hydroxywogonin (0–10 μg/mL; 24 h) diminishes the survival of SW620 cells and lowers the expression of VEGF-A (vascular endothelial growth factor–A), the main pro-angiogenic cytokine in tumor angiogenesis, both in mRNA and protein[2]. Apoptosis is induced and the expression of C-MYC, BCL-2, and cleaved caspase 3 is reduced by 4′-hydroxywogonin (24 h; SUP-B15 and Jurkat cells)[3]. |
ln Vivo | In a mouse model, 4′-hydroxywogonin (10 and 20 mg/kg; ip; male C57BL/6 mice) reduces LPS-induced acute lung damage (ALI)[1]. |

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro) | May dissolve in DMSO (in most cases), if not, try other solvents such as H2O, Ethanol, or DMF with a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples |
Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples. Injection Formulations (e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals). Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] *Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.
