Lucidin-3-O-primeveroside (LuP) is an anthraquinone derivative present in Rubia tinctorum L. (madder root), which has been used as a coloring agent and food additive. LuP can be metabolically converted to genotoxic compound lucidin, which subsequently forms lucidin-specific N2-2'-deoxyguanosine (N2-dG) and N6-2'-deoxyadenosine (N6-dA) DNA adducts. Lucidin is mutagenic and carcinogenic in rodents but has low carcinogenic risks in humans. Lucidin adduct destabilizes DNA structure and reduces fidelity and processivity of DNA synthesis.

Sample Use Guides

Male Parkes mice were treated orally for 4 days with lucidin (2 mg/d) and DNA was isolated from liver, kidney, duodenum and colon. Analysis by 32P-postlabelling revealed that lucidin formed DNA adducts in all the tissues examined but that the adduct patterns were organ-specific.
Route of Administration: Oral
Lucidin was active against Entamoeba histolytica (MIC 31.25 μg/mL) and Giardia intestinalis (MIC 7.8 μg/mL).
