| Description | 4-Hydroxyphenyl acetate (4-HPA) is a natural antioxidant and protects cells from oxidative stress-induced necrosis. 4-Hydroxyphenyl acetate blocks the increase of cellular ROS induced by oxidative stress, and up-regulates NQO1 and HO-1 genes by stabilizing and inducing the nuclear translocation of NRF2 transcription factor[1]. |

| In Vitro | 4-Hydroxyphenyl acetate (5 μM; 24 h) protects retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells from oxidative stress-induced cell death[1]. 4-Hydroxyphenyl acetate (5 μM; 24 h; ARPE-19 cells) inhibits the increase of ROS in response to oxidative stress and up-regulated the expression of cytoprotective genes including NQO1 and HO-1 genes[1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: ARPE-19 cells Concentration: 5 μM Incubation Time: 24 hours Result: Protected up to 89%, 92%, and 90% of ARPE-19 cells exposed to 100, 200, and 300 μM tBHP, respectively. |
