Scutellarin is a flavonoid with multiple biological activities[1]. Scutellarin can prevent endothelial dysfunction and prevent atherosclerosis through antioxidant activity[2]. Scutellarin has anti-HIV-1IIIB, HIV-1(74V) and HIV-1KM018 activities with EC50 of 26μM, 253μM and 136μM, respectively[3].
In vitro, Scutellarin (0-210μM) treated human renal cancer cells (ACHN and 786-O cells) for 24-72h inhibited cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner, induced cell apoptosis and cell cycle arrest at the G0/G1 phase, and increased the expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)[4]. Scutellarin (50μM) pre-treated BV-2 cells for 30min inhibited the production of NO, TNFα, IL-1β and ROS induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and inhibited LPS-induced nuclear translocation and DNA binding activity of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)[5].
In vivo, Scutellarin (30, 60mg/kg/day) was orally treated for 3 weeks in mice with H1975-Luciferase cell xenografts, which significantly inhibited the growth of transplanted tumors in mice, upregulated the levels of LC3-II and p-ERK1/2 in mouse lung tissue, and downregulated the level of p-AKT[6]. Scutellarin (5mg/kg) was intravenously injected to treat doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiac toxicity in rats, significantly reducing serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, lipid peroxide (MDA) levels, and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) concentrations, and significantly reducing cardiac tissue damage[7].

Protocol
| Cell experiment []: | |
Cell lines | ACHN、786-O cells |
Preparation Method | ACHN and 786-O cells were seeded into 96-well plates at the concentration of 5×103 cells per well and cultured to 70–80% confluence, cells were treated with different concentrations (0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, and 210μM) of Scutellarin dissolved in DMSO for 24, 48, 72h at the indicated time point, 10μl of CCK-8 solution was added into each well and incubated for 2h. |
Reaction Conditions | 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210μM; 24, 48, 72h |
Applications | Scutellarin inhibites cell proliferation in dose- and time- dependent manner. |
| Animal experiment []: | |
Animal models | BALB/c nude mice |
Preparation Method | Mice were subcutaneously injected with 4×106 H1975-Luciferase cells (stably expressing fluorescence). When tumor reached approximately 100mm3, mice were randomly divided into three groups (n=8): the vehicle; the low dose Scutellarin (30mg/kg); the high dose Scutellarin (60mg/kg). At this point, Scutellarin was dissolved in PBS, and was orally administered to each mouse once a day for three weeks. The tumor dimensions were measured using digital calliper every 3 days. Before treatment or after the last administration, the tumor size was monitored by in vivo bioluminescence imaging. After 3 weeks, all mice were humanely sacrificed and the tumors were resected for protein quantitation analysis. |
Dosage form | 30, 60mg/kg/day for 3 weeks; p.o. |
Applications | Scutellarin suppressed tumor growth in mouse xenograft model. Scutellarin treatment could up-regulate LC3-II and p-ERK1/2 level, and down-regulate p-AKT. |
