Punicalagin is a ellagitannin, a phenolic compound with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer effects[1, 2]. Punicalagin is a reversible and non-competitive 3-chymotrypsin-like protease (3CLpro) inhibitor that inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication in vitro[3].
In vitro, PC-3, LNCaP, and BPH-1 cells were treated with Punicalagin (10, 50, 100µM) for 24h. Punicalagin inhibited the viability of PC-3 and LNCaP cells in a dose-dependent manner, but had no significant effect on the viability of BPH-1 cells. Punicalagin (100µM) increased the expression of enrichment factors in PC-3 and LNCaP cells[4]. Punicalagin (12.5-100μM) treatment of thyroid cancer cell line BCPAP cells for 24h-48h inhibited cell viability in a time- and dose-dependent manner and increased the number of autophagic vacuoles (AVO) in cells, but did not induce apoptosis[5].
In vivo, Punicalagin (50mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected into mice with collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) for 14 days, which reduced the severity of arthritis and bone destruction in mice and decreased serum IL-6 and TNF-α levels[6]. Punicalagin (25, 50, 100mg/kg) was orally administered to pregnant rats with L-NAME-induced preeclampsia (PE) for 7 days, which significantly reduced diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure, restored angiogenesis balance, and enhanced placental antioxidant capacity[7].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
|
Cell lines |
PC-3, LNCaP, BPH-1 cells |
|
Preparation Method |
PC-3, LNCaP and BPH-1 cells were cultured in a 96-well microtiter plate containing 0.1mL of RPMI growth media/well for 24h. Cells were incubated with Punicalagin dissolved in DMSO, and Punicalagin concentrations of 10, 50 and 100µM were used with incubation period of 24-96h. Cells were evaluated for their viability using the XTT assay. |
|
Reaction Conditions |
10, 50, 100µM; 24h |
|
Applications |
Punicalagin concentration-dependently inhibited viability in PC-3 and LNCaP cells, while viability in BPH-1 cells was insignificantly affected. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
|
Animal models |
DBA/1 mice |
|
Preparation Method |
DBA/1 mice (male, 8–9 weeks) were intradermally injected at the tail base with 200mg of bovine type II collagen emulsified at a 1:1 ratio (vol/vol) in Freund's complete adjuvant (day 0), and then boosted 21 days later using bovine type II collagen emulsified at a 1:1 ratio in incomplete Freund's adjuvant (day 21). Mice were randomly treated daily by intraperitoneal injection of DMSO (n=8) or Punicalagin (50mg/kg/day, n=8) for 14 days, which was initiated on the second day of booster immunization (day 22). Set up a normal control group including 8 mice without any treatment. Hindlimb samples were collected and fixed in 10% formalin for 48h. After a series of dehydration, waxing, and embedding, the joints were cut into 5µm thick sections for subsequent analysis. |
|
Dosage form |
50mg/kg/day for 14 days; i.p. |
|
Applications |
Punicalagin alleviated arthritis severity and bone destruction, and decreased serum IL-6 and TNF-α in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mice. |
