| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Deoxyshikonincan be used as a natural pigment in cosmetics and printing and dyeing industries, and has great development and application prospects. | [Definition]
ChEBI:Deoxyshikonin is a hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone. | [in vivo]
Deoxyshikonin (20?mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; every two days for 13 days) markedly suppresses the growth of xenograft tumours on day 5, 9 and 11 with 20?mg/kg[1].
| Animal Model: | Male BALB/c nude mice of 10-14?g with DLD-1 cells[1] | | Dosage: | 20?mg/kg | | Administration: | Intraperitoneal injection; every two days for a total of 13 days | | Result: | Markedly suppressed the growth of xenograft tumours on day 5, 9 and 11 with 20?mg/kg, while there were no significant changes in body weight of the mice.
