体外研究 (In Vitro) | Pectic acid (2.5-100 μg/mL, 30 min) stimulates the release of prolactin (PRL) in GH3/B6 cells, without affecting the viability of cells[1]. Pectic acid (100 μg/mL-5 mg/mL, 6-48 h) increases cell death and DNA damage in GH3/B6 cells, detected by MTT assay and AO/EB staining[2]. Pectic acid (100 μg/mL-1 mg/mL, 24 h) induces apoptosis in GH3/B6 cells in a dose-dependent manner[2]. Pectic acid (2.5-5 mg/mL, 24 h) induces necrosis in GH3/B6 cells, confirmed by PI staining[2].
Cell Cycle Analysis[2] Cell Line: | GH3/B6 cells | Concentration: | 1 mg/mL | Incubation Time: | 24 h | Result: | Induced sub G1 events, and DNA fragmentation, which was correlated with the number of the apoptotic cells. |

体内研究 (In Vivo) | Pectic acid (25 and 100 mg/kg, oral gavage) increases colon length, downregulates disease activity index, histopathological score and proinflammatory cytokine levels in Ulcerative colitis (UC) mice[3]. Pectic acid (6.25 and 12.5 mg/kg, intravenous injection) rescues the reduction in colon length in UC mice[3].
Animal Model: | Ulcerative colitis (UC) mice[3] | Dosage: | 25, 100 mg/kg | Administration: | Oral gavage | Result: | Exhibited the longest colon, lowest DAI, and minimum histopathological score. Decreased the proinflammatory cytokines in the colonic tissue of UC mice. |
Animal Model: | Ulcerative colitis (UC) mice[3] | Dosage: | 6.25, 12.5 mg/kg | Administration: | Intravenous injection | Result: | Decreased the spleen and thymus index. Restored the Th17/Treg balance in the spleen and lamina propria of UC mice. Improved the gut microbiota composition.
