Biological Activity
| ln Vitro |
- Antipathogenic activity: Columbianetin exhibited inhibitory activity against plant pathogens associated with celery storage decay, including Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium oxysporum, and Rhizoctonia solani. The growth of these pathogens was suppressed when exposed to Columbianetin extracted from resistant celery cultivars, with the inhibitory effect positively correlated to the compound's concentration in celery tissues [1] - Anti-inflammatory activity: Columbianetin inhibited the activation of human mast cells (HMC-1) induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) plus calcium ionophore A23187. At concentrations of 10 μM, 30 μM, and 100 μM, it dose-dependently reduced the release of histamine (inhibition rates of 21.3%, 45.7%, and 68.2% respectively) and tryptase (inhibition rates of 18.9%, 42.5%, and 65.3% respectively) from activated HMC-1 cells. Additionally, it significantly decreased the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8, with the highest inhibition observed at 100 μM (TNF-α: 72.1% inhibition; IL-6: 69.4% inhibition; IL-8: 67.8% inhibition) [2] |
| Cell Assay |
- Human mast cell activation and inflammatory mediator detection assay: HMC-1 cells were cultured in appropriate medium and seeded into 24-well plates at a density of 1×10⁶ cells/well. The cells were pre-treated with Columbianetin at concentrations of 10 μM, 30 μM, and 100 μM for 1 hour, followed by stimulation with PMA (10 ng/mL) plus A23187 (1 μM) for 6 hours. After incubation, the cell supernatant was collected to measure histamine levels using a fluorometric assay, tryptase activity via a colorimetric assay, and concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Cells without drug treatment but with PMA/A23187 stimulation served as the positive control, and unstimulated cells served as the negative control [2] |

| Additional Infomation |
Columbianetin acetate is an acetate ester obtained by formal acetylation of the tertiary hydroxy group of 2-[(8S)-2-oxo-8,9-dihydro-2H-furo[2,3-h][1]benzopyran-8-yl]propan-2-ol. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is a furanocoumarin and an acetate ester. Columbianetin acetate has been reported in Cnidium monnieri, Murraya siamensis, and other organisms with data available. - Phytochemical background: Columbianetin is a phytoalexin naturally produced in celery (Apium graveolens) plants, particularly in resistant cultivars in response to pathogen infection during post-harvest storage. Its biosynthesis is induced as a defense mechanism against fungal and bacterial pathogens [1] - Anti-inflammatory mechanism: Columbianetin exerts anti-inflammatory effects by suppressing the activation of signaling pathways involved in mast cell degranulation and pro-inflammatory cytokine production, although the specific molecular targets remain uncharacterized [2] - Chemical nature: Columbianetin belongs to the coumarin family of natural products, characterized by a benzopyranone core structure, which is associated with various biological activities including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects [1] |
Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) | DMSO : ~100 mg/mL (~346.86 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.67 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. 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. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.67 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
