In vitro study | Myricitrin, a compound isolated from the bark of the waxberry Myrica rubra, exerts analgesic effects. In rodent models of chemical and mechanical pain, Myricitrin produces significant analgesia by preventing activation of protein kinase C (PKC) α and PKC ε by phorbol ester (PMA). Another study demonstrated that the opening of voltage and small conductance calcium-gated K (+) channels and the reduction of calcium influx are responsible for the analgesic effect of myricitrin. Myricitrin also activates caspase-3 and MAPK signaling pathways by inhibiting p53 gene expression, and change the expression pattern of pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic genes and reduce the apoptosis induced by H 2 O 2 in vascular endothelial cells. |
In vivo study | In mice, myricitrin (I. p. 10 mg/kg or 30 mg/kg) blocked apomorphine-induced stereotyped behavior and climbing and increased hindlimb withdrawal time (HRT). |
Safety Description | 24/25 - Avoid contact with skin and eyes. |
