Product Description
Timosaponin C is extracted from Rhizoma Anemarrhenae. Timosaponin C has weak NO inhibitory activity in N9 microglial cells.
Anemarsaponin C (also known as Timosaponin C) is a steroidal saponin isolated from Rhizoma Anemarrhenae (Anemarrhena asphodeloides). It has a molecular weight of 903.06 and a molecular formula of C4₅H₇4O1₈. Anemarsaponin C shows weak nitric oxide (NO) inhibitory activity in N9 microglial cells. It is a natural product used for research in the fields of medicine and pharmacy.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Anemarsaponin C targets inflammatory pathways, specifically the production of nitric oxide (NO) in microglial cells. It shows weak NO inhibitory activity in N9 microglial cells. NO is a pro-inflammatory mediator produced by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in activated microglia. By inhibiting NO production, Anemarsaponin C may exert mild anti-inflammatory effects. However, its primary target and mechanism of action are not fully elucidated.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies demonstrate that Anemarsaponin C shows weak NO inhibitory activity in N9 microglial cells. Its in vitro activity is assessed by measuring NO production in activated microglial cells using the Griess assay. The compound's weak activity suggests that it may have limited potency as an anti-inflammatory agent. Further in vitro studies may be needed to characterize its full biological activity profile.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity of Anemarsaponin C has not been extensively characterized in the available literature. As a steroidal saponin with weak NO inhibitory activity, the compound has potential applications in inflammation research. However, detailed in vivo efficacy data are not extensively reported. The compound is primarily used as a research tool.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro assays for Anemarsaponin C involve measuring its inhibition of NO production in microglial cells. N9 microglial cells are treated with the compound and stimulated with LPS or other inflammatory stimuli. NO production is measured using the Griess assay, which quantifies nitrite accumulation in the culture supernatant. IC₅0 values are calculated from dose-response curves. Cell viability is assessed in parallel using MTT or similar assays to ensure that observed effects are not due to cytotoxicity.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Anemarsaponin C are conducted using N9 microglial cells. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of the compound and stimulated with LPS. NO production is measured using the Griess assay. Inflammatory cytokine production (e.g., TNF-alpha, IL-6) may also be measured by ELISA. Cell viability is assessed using MTT or similar assays. The compound's effects on iNOS expression may be assessed by Western blotting or qPCR.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Anemarsaponin C are limited. For anti-inflammatory studies, animal models of neuroinflammation could be used. Animals would be treated with the compound via oral or intraperitoneal administration at various doses. Inflammatory markers would be assessed in the brain or peripheral tissues. However, specific in vivo study protocols are not extensively reported.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties of Anemarsaponin C have not been extensively characterized. The compound has a molecular weight of 903.06 and a molecular formula of C4₅H₇4O1₈. It is soluble in DMSO at 100 mg/mL (110.73 mM). The compound is a steroidal saponin with high molecular weight and multiple sugar moieties, which may limit oral bioavailability. Detailed PK parameters are not reported. The compound is typically stored at 4degC, protected from light.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Anemarsaponin C are limited. The compound is not intended for human therapeutic use and is supplied for research purposes only. In cell-based assays, the compound is generally well-tolerated at concentrations used for activity studies. The compound is derived from Anemarrhena asphodeloides, a plant used in traditional medicine with a generally favorable safety profile. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound.

  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
