Senkyunolide I is a natural phthalide existing in L. chuanxiong and A. sinensis with good blood-brain barrier permeability, which has the potential to become a cardio-cerebral vascular drug candidate [1]. Its pharmacological effects include analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-thrombotic, anti-tumor effects, alleviating ischemia-reperfusion injury, etc [1].
Senkyunolide I (400μM; 2h) significantly attenuated glutamate-induced cytotoxicity, increased the cell viability of Neuro2a cells [2]. Senkyunolide I (20, 50, 100μM; 24h) suppressed the fibrotic markers (α-Sma, Col1a1, and Timp1) in the TGF-β1-stimulated hepatic stellate cells in a dose-dependent manner [3]. Senkyunolide I (200, 400μM; 24h) promoted neural stem/progenitor cells proliferative capacity [4].
Senkyunolide I (36mg/kg; 4 weeks; qow; i.p.) attenuated the ROS and apoptosis in the aortic tissue in the TAAD (thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection) model C57BL/6J mice [5]. Senkyunolide I (72mg/kg; i.p.) reduced TNF-α, IL-1β levels in sepsis-associated encephalopathy model Sprague-Dawley rats [6].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Neuro2a cells |
Preparation Method | Cells were seeded at 2×104 cells into 96-well plates and grown for 48h, and then were treated with 150mM glutamate for 24h to obtain the glutamate-induced excitotoxicity cell model. Cells were pre-treated with Senkyunolide I for 2h prior to incubation with glutamate. After 24h, cell viability was measured. |
Reaction Conditions | 400μM; 2h |
Applications | Senkyunolide I significantly attenuated glutamate-induced cytotoxicity, increased the cell viability. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Male C57BL/6J mice |
Preparation Method | The mice were administered with water containing 1mg/kg/day BAPN (β-aminopropionitrile) for 4 weeks, followed by a 3-day infusion of angiotensin II (1000ng/kg/min) via mini-osmotic pumps to induce thoracic aortic aneurysm and aortic dissection (TAAD). Intraperitoneal injections of 1 % DMSO or Senkyunolide I (36mg/kg) were administered at days 7, 14, 21, and 28. Detecting apoptosis in the aortic tissue and immunofluorescence of ROS after sacrificing. |
Dosage form | 36mg/kg; 4 weeks; qow; i.p. |
Applications | Senkyunolide I attenuated the ROS and apoptosis in the aortic tissue compared with the model group. |
