Description
Silychristin is an abundant flavonolignan present in the fruits of Silybum marianum, with antioxidant properties. Silychristin is a potent inhibitor of the thyroid hormone transporter MCT8, and elicits a strong inhibition of T3 uptake with an IC50 of 110 nM.

How to use
In Vitro:
Silychristin exhibits a strong inhibition of MCT8-mediated T3 uptake with an IC50 of 110 nM in MCT8 overexpressing MDCK1-cells. Silychristin causes no cytotoxic for fibroblasts. Silychristin (6.5-75 μM; 24 hours) diminishes UVA toxicity and reduces ROS generation, and the protective effect is dose-dependent. Silychristin (12.5μM, 25μM) reduces the metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) level in cells.
