Overview
Apocynin is a methoxy-substituted catechol that is commonly used as an inhibitor of Mox and Nox (NADPH oxidase) (IC50=10 μM). Because of Abocynin's inhibition of NADPH oxidase, ROS production is also inhibited. Studies show the compound's ability to decrease superoxide generation in bovine pulmonary arteries as well as neutrophils and macrophages (10 mM). In experimental rats, apocynin has displayed anti-inflammatory activity and can improve endothelial function by reducing oxidative stress and improved NO bioavailability. Reportedly prevents phagocytosis of MBP (myelin) by macrophages. Also has proven to be a useful product for studying NO-regulated processes in plants. A methoxy-substituted catechol commonly used as an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase.
Selective NADPH-oxidase inhibitor (IC 50 = 10 μM). Inhibits production of reactive oxygen species. Also elicits a range of in vitro and in vivo anti-inflammatory effects.

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
