    Product Description

    Baicalin is a flavonoid that has been found in S. baicalensis and has diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4,5,6 It reduces NETosis induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; Item No. 10008014) in DMSO-differentiated HL-60 neutrophil-like cells when used at a concentration of 10 nM.1 In vivo, baicalin (30 and 100 mg/kg) reduces myocardial apoptosis and increases cardiac microvessel levels of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in a rat model of ischemia-reperfusion injury when administered at doses of 30 and 100 mg/kg.2 Baicalin (50 and 80 mg/kg) increases the number of intratumoral CD8+ T cells and reduces tumor volume in an H22 murine hepatocellular carcinoma model.3 It reduces LPS-induced cortical production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and levels of IL-1β and TNF-α in a mouse model of neuroinflammation.4 Baicalin decreases body weight, increases the number of rats with regular estrous cycles, and ameliorates follicular development in a mouse model of dehydroepiandrosterone-induced polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).5 It also decreases immobility time in the forced swim test in a mouse model of depression induced by chronic mild stress.6
