| Targets |
Echinacoside targets multiple pathways. It effectively inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling. It activates Trk receptors and their downstream signal pathways, mediating neuroprotection. It targets reactive oxygen species (ROS) and exhibits nitric oxide radical-scavenging activity. Its neuroprotective effects are thought to be mediated via effects on mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), caspases 3 and 8, as well as CHOP pathways. It also shows activity against HSD17B4 at 1995.3 nM. Its anti-osteoporotic activity is mediated through increasing OPG/RANKL ratio.

| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Echinacoside behaves as an antioxidant and a potent free radical scavenger. It has been shown to rescue SH-SY5Y neuronal cells from TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis. It effectively inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling. It activates Trk receptors and their downstream signal pathways. It inhibits amyloid fibrillization of HEWL and protects against Aβ-induced neurotoxicity. It promotes bone regeneration by increasing OPG/RANKL ratio in MC3T3-E1 cells. It inhibits breast cancer cells by suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. It exhibits anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokine production.
|
| ln Vivo |
When taken daily for 12 weeks, the Echinacea series (30-270 mg/kg body weight; face) dramatically reverses weight gain, serum supplemental proline (HOP) levels, wet skin weight, and bone mineral density (BMD) in women who have been castrated (OVX).
In vivo, Echinacoside (30-270 mg/kg body weight; p.o.; daily for 12 weeks) significantly reverses the increases of body weight, serum hydroxyproline (HOP) levels, and the decreases of uterus wet weight and bone mineral density (BMD) in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. It has neuroprotective effects in the mouse MPTP model of Parkinson's disease, improving motor behavior and attenuating the depletion of striatal dopamine, DOPAC, and HVA in MPTP-lesioned mice. It ameliorates D-galactosamine plus lipopolysaccharide-induced acute liver injury in mice via inhibition of apoptosis and inflammation. |
| Enzyme Assay |
For in vitro cell-free assays, Echinacoside's antioxidant activity can be measured using DPPH or ABTS radical scavenging assays. Its nitric oxide radical-scavenging activity can be assessed using the Griess reaction. Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibition can be studied using reporter gene assays or by measuring β-catenin protein levels. Trk receptor activation can be assessed by measuring receptor phosphorylation using ELISA or Western blot. Its anti-inflammatory activity can be evaluated by measuring inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines using ELISA.
|
| Cell Assay |
For in vitro cellular assays, neuroprotective effects are assessed in SH-SY5Y neuronal cells. Cells are treated with Echinacoside and exposed to TNF-alpha or other neurotoxic insults. Cell viability is measured using MTT or similar assays. Apoptosis is assessed by flow cytometry or caspase activity assays. Wnt/β-catenin signaling is studied in cancer cell lines by measuring β-catenin levels and target gene expression. Trk receptor activation is assessed in neuronal cells by measuring receptor phosphorylation. Anti-osteoporotic activity is assessed in MC3T3-E1 cells by measuring OPG/RANKL ratio.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: 56 6-month-old female SD (SD (Sprague-Dawley)) rats (OVX rat model) [3]
Doses: 30, 90, 270 mg/kg body weight Route of Administration: po; ) Ratio [3]. one time/day for 12 weeks Experimental Results: Increases in body weight, serum hydroxyproline (HOP) levels, and decreases in uterine wet weight and bone density were Dramatically reversed. For in vivo studies, Echinacoside is administered orally to animal models. In ovariectomized rats, it is given at 30-270 mg/kg body weight daily for 12 weeks to assess anti-osteoporotic effects. In the MPTP model of Parkinson's disease, it is administered to assess neuroprotection by measuring motor behavior and striatal dopamine levels. In acute liver injury models, it is given to assess hepatoprotection by measuring liver enzyme levels, apoptosis, and inflammation. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Animal studies have shown an oral bioavailability of 0.83%. Metabolism/Metabolites Metabolism of echinacoside has been studied in rats, suggesting the involvement of catechol O-methyltransferases, as well as unidentified UDP-glucuronyltransferases and sulfotransferases. A study on the metabolism of echinacoside by human gut microbiota identified 13 metabolites produced independently of human metabolism. Echinacoside (CAS 82854-37-3) has a molecular formula of C35H46O20 and a molecular weight of 786.73 g/mol. Appearance: typically a powder. Solubility: DMSO and other organic solvents. Storage: store under recommended conditions as per certificate of analysis. Purity: typically >98% for research use. It is a phenylethanoid glycoside and is used as an analytical standard. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No detailed toxicity data is publicly available. As a natural polyphenolic compound from Cistanche deserticola, it is generally considered to have low toxicity, but standard toxicological studies would be required for drug development. In vitro cytotoxicity assays in various cell lines are typically performed alongside efficacy studies to confirm that observed effects are not due to a general reduction in cell viability.

| Additional Infomation |
Echinacoside is an oligosaccharide. It is a phenylethyl glycoside isolated from Echinacea angustifolia in 1950 and is currently being investigated for its applications in Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, osteoporosis, acute colitis, wound healing, and hepatitis treatment. Echinacoside has been shown to inhibit apoptosis in nerve cell lines, demonstrating its potential for treatment of neurological diseases. It has been reported to be present in Jasminum mesnyi, Echinacea angustifolia, and several other organisms with relevant data. Its neuroprotective effect is believed to be achieved by influencing mitogen-activated protein kinase, nuclear factor κB, caspase 3 and 8, and the CHOP pathway.
Echinacoside is a research-grade compound and is not approved for therapeutic use. It serves primarily as a pharmacological tool for studying neuroprotection, Wnt/β-catenin signaling, and oxidative stress. Its mechanism of action involves inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, activation of Trk receptors, and antioxidant activity. It has been investigated for potential neuroprotective effects against neurodegenerative diseases. No clinical trials have been reported. It is isolated from Cistanche deserticola and has anti-osteoporotic activity. |
