Hederagenin Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Description
Hederagenin is a triterpene saponin that has been found in P. eximia with diverse biological activities. It increases production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), reduces colony formation, and induces apoptosis in cisplatin-resistant head and neck carcinoma (HNC) cells. In vivo, hederagenin (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg) suppresses tumor growth in a cisplatin-resistant HNC mouse xenograft model. It reduces aortic atherosclerotic lesion area, serum cholesterol and LDL levels, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein levels in a rat model of atherosclerosis. Hederagenin (50 mg/kg) reduces ethanol-induced production of TNF-α, IL-6, and COX-2, alcohol dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) mRNA expression, and liver damage in a rat model of alcohol-induced hepatotoxicity. It also induces autophagy and inhibits oligomerization of α-synuclein in a mouse model of Parkinson''s disease induced by MPTP.
Chemical Properties
White Solid
Uses
Triterpenoid which can inhibit the proliferation of leukemia HL-60 cells.
Definition
ChEBI: A sapogenin that is olean-12-en-28-oic acid substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 3 and 23 (the 3beta stereoisomer).
in vivo
Hederagenin (25 mg/kg; po; 11 d) alone did not affect tumor growth in NCI-H1299 xenograft mice. However, it has a synergistic effect with Cisplatin (1 mg/kg) to inhibit tumor growth[4].
Hederagenin (50 mg/kg; po; once daily for 21 days) exerts anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic activities and reduces liver damage induced by 25% ethanol in mice[5].
