Sample solution is provided at 25 µL, 10mM.
Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) is a cyclic dipeptide formed by the cyclization of two phenylalanine molecules via a peptide bond[1]. This compound can activate the Nrf2 signaling pathway, thereby enhancing cellular antioxidant defense capacity and exerting a protective effect against chemical-induced liver injury[2].
In vitro cell experiments, HepG2 cells were pretreated with Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) at concentrations of 0.06–6μmol/L for 2 hours, followed by co-treatment with the oxidative stress inducer AAPH (60–100mmol/L) for 1–24 hours. Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) significantly suppressed intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization. Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) activated the Nrf2 pathway, upregulating the expression of the antioxidant genes heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1)[2].
In vivo embryo models, fertilized chick embryos were administered Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) via air chamber injection at doses of 0.1–1nmol per egg every three days until the 17th day of embryonic development. Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) significantly reduced AAPH-induced embryonic mortality, improved liver development parameters (including liver weight and volume), and effectively attenuated liver tissue fibrosis and cellular apoptosis[2].

Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) 是一种由两个苯丙氨酸分子形成的环二肽[1]。Cyclo(-Phe-Phe)还能够通过激活Nrf2通路来增强细胞抗氧化能力,从而对肝损伤产生保护作用[2]。
在体外,环二肽Cyclo(-Phe-Phe)以0.06–6μmol/L的浓度预处理HepG2细胞2小时后,联合使用AAPH(60–100mmol/L)刺激1–24小时,Cyclo(-Phe-Phe)可显著抑制细胞内活性氧(ROS)的积累和线粒体膜电位去极化,同时通过激活Nrf2通路增强抗氧化基因HO-1和NQO1的表达[2]。
在体内,Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) (0.1-1nmol per egg) 每隔三天通过气室注射一次,用于处理受精鸡胚胎直至第17天。Cyclo(-Phe-Phe)显著减轻了AAPH诱导的胚胎死亡和肝损伤,包括改善肝重量和体积,并减少肝纤维化及细胞凋亡[2]。
| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | HepG2 cells (human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line) |
Preparation Method | HepG2 cells were maintained in Dulbecco's minimal essential medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS) at 37°C, 5% CO₂. Cells were pretreated with Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) (0.06–6μmol/L) for 2 hours, followed by co-treatment with AAPH (60–100mmol/L) for 1–24 hours to induce oxidative stress. |
Reaction Conditions | 0.06–6μM; pretreatment for 2 hours |
Applications | Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) significantly suppressed intracellular ROS accumulation and mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization induced by AAPH. Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) enhanced the expression of antioxidant genes HO-1 and NQO1 by activating the Nrf2 pathway, while inhibiting Nrf2 ubiquitination and promoting its nuclear translocation. |
| Animal experiment [1]: | |
Animal models | Fertilized White Leghorn chicken embryos |
Preparation Method | Embryos were treated with 2,2-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH, 0.75μmol per egg) to induce oxidative stress, followed by administration of Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) (0.1, 0.5, or 1nmol per egg) every three days until the 17th day of development. Embryos were harvested for liver analysis. |
Dosage form | 0.1–1nmol; administered via air chamber |
Applications | Cyclo(-Phe-Phe) significantly reduced AAPH-induced embryonic death and liver hypoplasia, alleviated liver pathological damage, and inhibited excessive ROS production. |
