Description of Eupatilin

Eupatilin is a natural flavonoid compound with multiple biological activities. It is an agonist of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) and has anti-apoptotic, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects[1, 2]. Eupatilin has a significant effect in inhibiting tumor growth and can be used in cancer research[3].

In vitro, pretreatment of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells (ARPE-19 cells) with Eupatilin (10, 25, 50μM) for 24h reduced the generation of intracellular ROS induced by H2O2 in a dose-dependent manner, upregulated the expression of Bcl-2 and the phosphorylation levels of PI3K and Akt, downregulated the expression of Bax, and inhibited the activity of caspase-3[4]. Eupatilin (0-400µg/mL) treated osteosarcoma U-2 cells for 96h inhibited cell growth in a dose- and time-dependent manner, changed cell cycle distribution, induced cell apoptosis, induced mitochondrial dysfunction and cytochrome c release[5]. Eupatilin (0-100μM) treated human endometrial cancer cell lines (Hec1A and KLE cells) for 96h significantly inhibited cell viability, was more effective than cisplatin, and induced cell cycle G2/M phase arrest[6].

In vivo, oral treatment of mice treated with transient middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (tMCAO) surgery with Eupatilin (10mg/kg) significantly reduced cerebral infarction and improved neurological function in tMCAO-challenged mice[7]. Oral treatment of mice with 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced Parkinson's disease (PD) with Eupatilin (10mg/kg) for 6 days improved the mice's motor deficits and reduced neuronal loss, inhibiting neuroinflammation and apoptosis[8].

Protocol of Eupatilin

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

ARPE-19 cells

Preparation Method

After reaching 80% confluence, ARPE-19 cells were seeded at a density of 1×105 cells/well in 96-well culture plates and then incubated with different concentrations of Eupatilin (10, 25, and 50μM). Subsequently, the medium was removed, and the cells were exposed to 500μM H2O2 for 24h. The production of ROS was detected by DCFH-DA.

Reaction Conditions

10, 25, 50μM; 24h

Applications

Pretreatment with Eupatilin obviously inhibited ROS production in a dose-dependent manner.

Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

Male ICR mice

Preparation Method

Mice that were challenged with transient middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (tMCAO) were randomly divided into the vehicle-treated, the Eupatilin-treated, or the Edaravone-treated groups. Eupatilin or Edaravone was dissolved in 10% Tween 80 (vehicle). Each group was administered vehicle (10% Tween 80, p.o.), Eupatilin (1, 3, 10mg/kg, p.o.), or Edaravone (3mg/kg, p.o.) immediately after reperfusion. Alternatively, Eupatilin (10mg/kg) was orally administered to mice 5h after MCAO induction. After tMCAO challenge, mice were housed 3 per cage with moist food and soft bedding materials to reduce suffering. Mice were monitored by visual inspection and body weight measurement every 12h following tMCAO till the experimental endpoints.

Dosage form

10mg/kg; p.o.

Applications

Oral administration of Eupatilin (10mg/kg) in a therapeutic paradigm significantly reduced brain infarction and improved neurological functions in tMCAO-challenged mice.
