Product Description
Celosin I, a triterpenoid saponin compound extracted from Celosia argentea L seeds, can be used as a chemical marker for quality control of broad bean seeds. Celosin I has a significant protective effect against carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity in mice and N,N-dimethylformamide-induced mouse hepatotoxicity.
Celosin I (CAS 1807732-38-2) is an oleanane-type triterpenoid saponin isolated from the seeds of Celosia argentea L. (Amaranthaceae). It is a natural product with hepatoprotective activity. Celosin I, along with celosin H and celosin J, can be used as chemical markers for the quality control of C. argentea seeds. The compound exhibits significant hepatoprotective effects on carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induced and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)-induced hepatotoxicity in mice. Its molecular formula is C₅₃H₈₂O₂₄ with a molecular weight of 1103.20. Celosin I is a triterpenoid saponin with a complex glycosylated structure. It is used as a research tool for studying hepatoprotective mechanisms and as a chemical marker for quality control of herbal products.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
The molecular targets of celosin I are not fully characterized, but the compound is known for its hepatoprotective activity. As a triterpenoid saponin, celosin I may exert its effects through multiple mechanisms, including antioxidant activity, inhibition of inflammatory signaling, and protection against hepatotoxic agents. The compound protects against CCl₄-induced and DMF-induced hepatotoxicity in mice. It may act by reducing oxidative stress, maintaining cellular membrane integrity, and modulating liver enzyme activities. Triterpenoid saponins are known for their diverse biological activities, including hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. However, the specific molecular targets and signaling pathways involved in celosin I's hepatoprotective effects require further investigation.
ln Vitro
In vitro studies of celosin I have demonstrated its hepatoprotective activity. The compound protects hepatocytes against toxic insults such as CCl₄ and DMF. In cellular assays, celosin I reduces cell death, decreases the release of liver enzymes (ALT, AST), and maintains cellular integrity in hepatocyte cultures exposed to hepatotoxic agents. The compound's antioxidant activity may contribute to its protective effects by scavenging reactive oxygen species and reducing oxidative damage. Celosin I may also modulate inflammatory responses and maintain mitochondrial function in hepatocytes. However, detailed in vitro mechanistic studies are limited, and the compound's specific effects on cellular signaling pathways require further investigation. The compound is also used as a chemical marker for quality control of C. argentea seeds.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of celosin I have demonstrated significant hepatoprotective effects in mouse models of liver injury. The compound protects against CCl₄-induced hepatotoxicity, reducing serum transaminase (ALT, AST) levels and attenuating histopathological damage to liver tissues. In the DMF-induced hepatotoxicity model, celosin I also shows significant protective effects. In vivo protocols typically involve oral or intraperitoneal administration of celosin I at doses determined from preliminary studies. Endpoints include assessment of serum liver enzymes (ALT, AST), histopathological examination of liver tissues (H&E staining), measurement of oxidative stress markers (MDA, SOD, GSH), and evaluation of inflammatory cytokines. The compound's hepatoprotective efficacy has been validated in multiple preclinical studies, supporting its potential as a therapeutic agent for liver diseases.
Cell Assay
For hepatoprotection studies in vitro, primary hepatocytes or hepatic cell lines (e.g., HepG2 cells) are cultured in appropriate medium (DMEM or Williams' E medium) with 10% FBS and antibiotics. Cells are seeded in 96-well or 24-well plates. Celosin I is dissolved in DMSO and diluted in culture medium to final concentrations (typically 1-100 µM). Cells are pre-treated with celosin I for 1-2 hours, then exposed to hepatotoxic agents such as CCl₄ (10-50 mM) or DMF (50-200 mM) for 4-24 hours. Cell viability is assessed by MTT or LDH release assays. Liver enzyme release (ALT, AST) is measured in the culture supernatant using commercial kits. Oxidative stress markers (MDA, SOD, GSH) are measured in cell lysates using colorimetric or fluorometric assays. Apoptosis is assessed by caspase-3/7 activity and Annexin V/PI staining. For mechanistic studies, cells are lysed and analyzed for signaling proteins (e.g., Nrf2, NF-κB, MAPKs) by Western blot.
Animal Protocol
For in vivo hepatoprotection studies, adult mice (BALB/c or ICR, 6-8 weeks old) are used. Celosin I is dissolved in vehicle (e.g., saline with 0.5% DMSO or 0.5% methylcellulose) and administered via oral gavage or intraperitoneal injection at doses of 1-50 mg/kg, typically once daily for 3-7 days before hepatotoxic challenge. For the CCl₄-induced liver injury model, mice receive a single dose of CCl₄ (0.5-1 ml/kg, diluted in olive oil, i.p.) on the final day of treatment. For the DMF-induced hepatotoxicity model, mice receive DMF (200-400 mg/kg, i.p.). Blood samples are collected 12-24 hours after hepatotoxic challenge for serum transaminase (ALT, AST) measurement. Liver tissues are harvested for histopathological examination (H&E staining), assessment of oxidative stress markers (MDA, SOD, GSH), measurement of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6), and Western blot analysis of signaling proteins. Body weights are monitored throughout the study.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for celosin I are not available, as the compound is a natural product used primarily as a research reagent. As a triterpenoid saponin with high molecular weight (1103.20) and complex glycosylated structure, celosin I is expected to have low oral bioavailability and limited tissue distribution. The compound's metabolism likely involves deglycosylation and hepatic metabolism. However, no dedicated pharmacokinetic studies have been reported. The compound is used as a chemical marker for quality control rather than as a therapeutic agent requiring pharmacokinetic characterization.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No toxicological data for celosin I have been reported, as the compound is a natural product used primarily as a research reagent. In preclinical studies, the compound has been shown to be well-tolerated at hepatoprotective doses. No acute toxicity LD50 values or organ-specific toxicity data have been reported. As with all research compounds, appropriate safety precautions should be taken when handling celosin I, including the use of personal protective equipment and work in a well-ventilated area.
