Arachidonic acid (Immunocytophyt) is a polyunsaturated omega-6 essential fatty acid that serves as a major component of biological membranes and animal phospholipids. It is synthesized from dietary linoleic acid and acts as a precursor to lipid mediators such as prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes. Arachidonic acid can improve cognitive responses and cardiovascular function and is commonly used to induce paw edema models.

Product Introduction

Arachidonic acid AI Summary
Arachidonic acid exhibits a broad range of bioactivities across various biological targets and assays. It shows a strong binding affinity to the adipocyte lipid binding protein with a Kd value of 180 nM and inhibits LTC4 production in THP-1 cells with an IC50 of 4.7 nM. While it demonstrates no significant inhibition on rat glial cell gap junctions and certain bioactivities in whole blood samples, it moderates nicotinic acetylcholine receptor responses in Torpedo, enhancing the original amplitude from 78.0% to 139.0% over 10 minutes. The compound significantly inhibits PAF-induced aggregation of rabbit platelets with an IC50 of approximately 60000.0 nM and shows antiviral activity against HCV with EC50 values of 22100 nM in OR6 cells and much lower IC50 values in Huh7-K2040 cells when tested with delipidated fetal calf serum. Against COX enzymes, Arachidonic acid has Km values of 1000 nM for COX2, 8800 nM for COX1 in bovine seminal microsomes, and 9700 nM for COX2 in sheep placental cotyledons. It also inhibits mPGES1 at 10 µM concentration, showing an IC50 of 300 nM, and demonstrates moderate inhibitory activity against aromatase in different assays. For soybean lipoxygenase 1, Arachidonic acid shows a Km value of 15000 nM and varied levels of activity under different temperatures. It binds to cholera toxin with a high Kd value of 180,000 nM. As an inhibitor of various proteins, it shows bioactivity against FAAH, human tissue factor/human factor 7a, PPAR receptors (PPARalpha, PPARgamma, PPARdelta), and others, while it does not significantly inhibit human CYP51 or other enzymes like pig pancreatic trypsin. It also exhibits inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus FabI and shows weak inhibition of rat TRPV2 channels. Furthermore, Arachidonic acid demonstrates minor antiviral activities against multiple viruses and was identified as an antagonist for Cytochrome P450 3A4. The compound significantly affects enzymes and cellular targets and demonstrates substrate activity towards COX-2. Its varied bioactivities suggest potential applications in anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and other therapeutic areas..

Description

Mg2+-ATPase:90 μM, 3H-ouabain:32 μM, NaK-ATPase:75 μM, L-type Ca2+ channel (cardiac myocytes):8.5 μM
In vitro
METHODS: RAW264.7 and PBMC-derived macrophages were treated with Arachidonic acid (40-80 µM) for 12-24 h and cell viability was determined by CCK8 assay.
RESULTS: Arachidonic acid significantly inhibited macrophage viability in a dose-dependent manner within 12 h, and more inhibition was observed between 12 h and 24 h. Arachidonic acid was also shown to inhibit macrophage viability in a dose-dependent manner. [1]
METHODS: Human breast cancer cells, MDA-MB-231, were treated with Arachidonic acid (8 µM) for 48 h. Caspase activity was measured using a spectrofluorophotometer.
RESULTS: MDA-MB-231 cells stimulated with Arachidonic acid for 48 h showed a significant increase in caspase-3 activity, and Arachidonic acid also induced significant activation of caspase-8 and caspase-9. [2]
In vivo
METHODS: To test the effect on the inflammatory response, Arachidonic acid (150 mg/kg in 1% CMC Na) was administered orally to C57BL/6 mice with high-fat diet (HFD)-induced cardiac injury every two days for eight weeks.
RESULTS: Arachidonic acid treatment prevented MD2/TLR4 dimerization, induction of inflammatory factors, and tissue damage through TLR4-mediated inflammatory responses in a high-fat diet obese mouse model. [3]

Please enter your animal experiment information in the following box and click Calculate to obtain the stock solution preparation method and in vivo formula preparation method:
TargetMol | Animal experiments For example, if the intended dosage is 10 mg/kg for animals weighing 20 g , with a dosing volume of 100 μL per animal, TargetMol | Animal experiments and a total of 10 animals are to be administered, using a formulation of TargetMol | reagent 10% DMSO+ 40% PEG300+ 5% Tween 80+ 45% Saline/PBS/ddH2O , the resulting working solution concentration would be 2 mg/mL.
Stock Solution Preparation:

Dissolve 2 mg of the compound in 100 μL DMSOTargetMol | reagent to obtain a stock solution at a concentration of 20 mg/mL . If the required concentration exceeds the compound's known solubility, please contact us for technical support before proceeding.

Preparation of the In Vivo Formulation:

1) Add 100 μL of the DMSOTargetMol | reagent stock solution to 400 μL PEG300TargetMol | reagent and mix thoroughly until the solution becomes clear.

2) Add 50 μL Tween 80 and mix well until fully clarified.

3) Add 450 μL Saline,PBS or ddH2OTargetMol | reagent and mix thoroughly until a homogeneous solution is obtained.
