General description
Methysticin has been identified from kava to have potent NF-κB inhibitory activity and minimum toxicity. It is shown to inhibit NF-κB (IC50 = 0.19 µg/ml) 100 times more potently than traditional kava in A549 cells in an in vitro luciferase-based assay. It is also reported to suppress the elevation of IKKα, p65, and COX-2 and the degradation of IκBα in A549 cultures stimulated with TNF-alpha; through Western Blot analysis.
Preparation Note
Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 3 months at -20°C.
