Product Description
β-Amyrin acetate is a triterpenoid with effective anti~inflammatory, antifungal, antidiabetic, and antihyperlipidemic activities. β-Amyrin acetate can locate at the hydrophobic binding cleft of HMG CoA reductase and inhibit its activity.
beta-Amyrin acetate (CAS# 1616-93-9) is a triterpenoid with potent anti-inflammatory, antifungal, anti-diabetic, and anti-hyperlipidemic activities. It has a molecular formula of C₃₂H₅₂O₂ and a molecular weight of 468.8 g/mol. beta-Amyrin acetate has a high antioxidant potential with an IC₅₀ value of 158.2 μg/mL. It inhibits HMG-CoA reductase. The compound is a triterpenoid that exhibits cytotoxicity and could be a viable source of antioxidant and cytotoxic agents in cancer chemotherapy. It is used as an analytical standard for qualitative determination.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
beta-Amyrin acetate targets HMG-CoA reductase as an inhibitor. By inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, it reduces cholesterol synthesis, contributing to its anti-hyperlipidemic activity. The compound also exhibits anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and anti-diabetic activities. Its antioxidant activity (IC₅₀ = 158.2 μg/mL) is mediated through free radical scavenging. beta-Amyrin acetate's multi-targeted mechanism makes it a valuable compound for studying triterpenoid pharmacology.
ln Vitro
β-Amyrinacetate (50 μg/mL) prevents human red blood cell hemolysis brought on by heat and hypotonic stress [1]. HMG-CoA reductase is present in β-aromatic resin acetate (5–100 μM), and it inhibits the active HMG CoA reductase [2]. All Candida fungus studied were suppressed by β-Aramacetate (7.8-1000 μg/mL, 48 hours), with MIC values ranging from 30 to 250 μg/mL [4].
In vitro, beta-amyrin acetate has a high antioxidant potential with an IC₅₀ value of 158.2 μg/mL. It inhibits HMG-CoA reductase. The compound exhibits cytotoxicity and could be a viable source of antioxidant and cytotoxic agents in cancer chemotherapy. It has potent anti-inflammatory, antifungal, anti-diabetic, and anti-hyperlipidemic activities. In cell-based assays, beta-amyrin acetate treatment results in reduced inflammation, inhibition of fungal growth, and reduced cholesterol synthesis.
ln Vivo
Mice's xylene-induced ear edema was considerably reduced by β-Amylin acetate (100 μg/ear, single dosage) applied to the front surface of the right ear [1]. In adult albino rats, β-Aramid acetate (4 mg/100 g, intraperitoneal injection, daily for 6 days) shown considerable anti-inflammatory action (43.6%) [3]. In liver homogenates of both normal and arthritic rats, subcutaneous injection of beta-amyrin acetate (4 mg/100 g, once day for 10 days) boosts the activity of ATP-phosphohydrolase [3].
In vivo, beta-amyrin acetate has been studied for its anti-inflammatory, antifungal, anti-diabetic, and anti-hyperlipidemic activities. As a triterpenoid, it has potential therapeutic applications in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. However, detailed in vivo efficacy data are limited. The compound is primarily used as a research tool and analytical standard. Comprehensive in vivo studies are needed.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme assays for beta-amyrin acetate involve measuring its inhibition of HMG-CoA reductase activity. The enzyme is incubated with varying concentrations of beta-amyrin acetate in the presence of its substrate, and the enzymatic activity is measured spectrophotometrically. The compound's antioxidant activity is assessed using DPPH or ABTS assays. Its anti-inflammatory activity is assessed by measuring the inhibition of COX or LOX enzymes. These assays confirm the compound's multi-targeted mechanism.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for beta-amyrin acetate evaluate its anti-inflammatory, antifungal, and anti-diabetic activities. Cells such as macrophages are cultured and treated with beta-amyrin acetate, and the production of inflammatory mediators is measured by ELISA. Antifungal activity is assessed by measuring the inhibition of fungal growth. Anti-diabetic activity is assessed by measuring glucose uptake or insulin secretion. These assays confirm the compound's functional activity.

In vivo animal experiments for beta-amyrin acetate have been conducted in models of inflammation, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. Animals are treated with beta-amyrin acetate, and inflammatory markers, blood glucose levels, and lipid profiles are assessed. The compound's effects on disease progression are evaluated. Pharmacokinetic studies are conducted to determine the compound's absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Comprehensive in vivo studies are ongoing.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic (PK) data for beta-amyrin acetate are limited. The compound has a molecular weight of 468.8 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₃₂H₅₂O₂. It is a triterpenoid with low water solubility. The compound's metabolic stability, half-life, and bioavailability have not been fully characterized. Comprehensive ADME studies are needed.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of beta-amyrin acetate has not been extensively characterized. As a triterpenoid, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. However, the compound should be handled with appropriate safety precautions in the laboratory. For research use only, not for human therapeutic use without proper authorization. Comprehensive toxicological studies are needed.
