Background

Danthron (Chrysazin, Antrapurol) functions in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism by activating AMPK. Danthron is a natural product extracted from the traditional Chinese medicine rhubarb. Danthron used to be a laxativa and now is currently used as an antioxidant in synthetic lubricants, in the synthesis of experimental antitumor agents, as a fungicide and as an intermediate for making dyes.

Protocol

Cell experiment:

HepG2 cells are transfected with pGL3-ABCA1 promoter-luc or pGL3-ABCG1 promoter-luc and pRL-SV40 plasmids. At 6 h post-transfection, the cells are incubated with Danthron (0-20 μM), TO90 (2 μM) or DMSO for 24 h. Luciferase activity is measured using the Dual Luciferase Reporter Assay kit[1].

Animal experiment:

Mice[2]C57/BL6 male mice are fed with a high fat diet for 3 months and treated with Danthron (5 mg/kg) or vehicle orally for 8 weeks. The animals are then fasted for 6 h and then given intraperitoneal injection of insulin at 1.5 units/kg. Blood samples are analyzed at 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 min using Accu-Chek active blood sugar test meter.
