Citropten CAS NO.487-06-9

Citropten, also known as 5,7-Dimethoxycoumarin or Limettin, is a naturally occurring coumarin derivative primarily isolated from citrus fruits such as bergamot, lime, and bitter orange. It is widely utilized as a high-purity reference standard in phytochemical analysis and pharmacological research due to its multifaceted bioactivities, including anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties. This compound is particularly valued in the development of nutraceuticals, functional foods, and cosmetic formulations targeting skin health and inflammatory conditions.

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

Citropten exerts its biological effects through multiple signaling pathways. It inhibits the activation of NF-κB and MAPK cascades, reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6. The compound also modulates neurotransmitter systems by inhibiting monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE), thereby enhancing monoaminergic neurotransmission. Additionally, it induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase and promotes melanogenesis in melanoma cells via ERK pathway modulation, while also exhibiting antimicrobial activity against Helicobacter pylori through urease inhibition.

2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS

This compound is indicated for research in inflammatory and autoimmune conditions, such as colitis and arthritis, leveraging its NF-κB inhibitory activity. It is also employed in dermatological studies for skin whitening, photoprotection, and melanoma differentiation therapy. Furthermore, Citropten is used in neuropharmacology research for depression and cognitive disorders, as well as in gastroenterology for anti-Helicobacter pylori applications, targeting researchers in natural product development and drug discovery.

3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT

Preclinical studies demonstrate that Citropten significantly alleviates dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis in mice, improving body weight loss and histological scores. It exhibits potent anti-melanoma activity by inducing differentiation and cell cycle arrest in human melanoma cell lines. In rodent models of chronic mild stress, it shows antidepressant-like effects by upregulating heat shock protein-70 and inhibiting MAO-A. While human clinical data are limited, its favorable pharmacokinetic profile supports its potential as a lead compound
