phycocyanobilin Usage And Synthesis
Uses
Phycocyanobilin, an orally active antioxidative agent, is an effective scavenger for various reactive oxygen species. Phycocyanobilin can be used for the research of Alzheimer’s disease[1][2][3].
in vivo
Phycocyanobilin (15 mg/kg; p.o.; in diet for 2 weeks) shows antioxidant effects in type 2 diabetes mice[3].
| Animal Model: | Male C57BL/Ks J db/db mice, a rodent model for type 2 diabetes[3] |
| Dosage: | 15 mg/kg |
| Administration: | In diet for 2 weeks |
| Result: | Significantly decreased blood glucose levels. Normalized the increases in urinary 8-OHdG and 8-epi-PGF2α levels, renal oxidative stress markers evaluated by renal 8-OHdG staining and DHE staining, Nox4 mRNA, and protein expression, as well as the mRNA levels of other NAD(P)H oxidase components, inflammatory markers and HO-1. |
Enzyme inhibitor
This linear tetrapyrrole (FW = 559.64 g/mol) is a prosthetic group of blue, highly fluorescent photoreceptor pigments (phycocyanins) found in certain algae. It is soluble in water and polar organic solvents. Phycocyanins, found in Cyanophyta, are proteins, which typically contain three molecules of covalently bound phycocyanobilin per subunit. One molecule of phycocyanobilin is bound per molecule of allophycocyanin, found in Cyanophyta and Rhodophyta. Phycocyanins and their chromophore phycocyanobilin are peroxy radical scavengers and inhibits ONOO–- mediated biological effects. Target(s): cyclooxygenase-2, inhibited by C-phycocyanin and poorly by phycocyanobilin.
