HIDE SMILES / InChI
Cortex fraxini, a famous Chinese herbal folk medicine, is used for the clinical treatment of hyperuricemia, arthritis, diarrhea, liver-protective. and bacillary dysentery. Fraxin, a main active component isolated from Cortex fraxini, possesses a variety of bioactivities such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, antimicrobial, antiviral, immunomodulatory, anti-hyperuricemia and diuresis. And a recent study indicated that fraxin showed potent hepatoprotective effects in vitro and in vivo, presumably through reducing Oxidative Stress. Fraxin protects cells from oxidative stress.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Fraxetin and fraxin could paralyze the CNS in mice and rabbits, causing respiratory arrest and death.

Sample Use Guides

In mice model, pretreatment with fraxin (10, 20 or 40mg/kg) along with CCl4 significantly alleviated liver damage as indicated by the decreased levels of liver index, liver marker enzymes, lipid peroxidation, inflammatory mediators, increased levels of the antioxidant enzymatic and non-enzymatic defense parameters, and improved hepatic histopathology changes.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: Protective effects of fraxin against cytotoxicity induced by H2O2 were examined in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).
Fraxin showed free radical scavenging effect at high concentration (0.5 mM) and cell protective effect against H2O2-mediated oxidative stress.
