| Name | Hexahydrocurcumin |
| Description | Hexahydrocurcumin is a selective, orally active COX-2 inhibitor and inactive against COX-1. |
| Cell Research | Cell Line: HT-29 cells. Concentration: 0 μM, 5 μM, 10 μM, 25 μM. Incubation Time: 24 hours or 48 hours [1] |
| Animal Research | Animal Model: Male Wistar rats (100-120 g) injected with dimethylhydrazine (DMH). Dosage: 50 mg/kg. Administration: Oral administration; daily; for 16 weeks [3] |
| In vitro | Hexahydrocurcumin (0-25 μM; 24-48 hours; HT-29 cells) significantly decreased HT-29 colon cancer cell viability in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, with IC50 values of 77.05 μM at 24 hours and 56.95 μM at 48 hours. When combined with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU; 5 μM), Hexahydrocurcumin markedly reduced COX-2 expression without altering COX-1 levels [1]. Moreover, Hexahydrocurcumin (7-14 μM; 24 hours) attenuated LPS-induced prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) increase in murine macrophages (RAW 264.7) in a concentration-dependent manner [2]. |
| In vivo | In colon cancer rats, Hexahydrocurcumin (50 mg/kg; oral administration; daily; for 16 weeks; male Wistar rats) treatment significantly reduces the numbers of aberrant crypt foci. Hexahydrocurcumin also markedly decreases COX-2 protein expression [3]. |
| Storage | Powder: -20°C for 3 years | In solvent: -80°C for 1 year | Shipping with blue ice. |
| Solubility Information | DMSO : 45 mg/mL (120.18 mM), Sonication is recommended.
