Product Description
Ginsenoside Ro (Polysciasaponin P3; Chikusetsusaponin 5; Chikusetsusaponin V) has antiplatelet effects as a Ca2+ antagonist (inhibitor) with IC50 of 155 μM. Ginsenoside Ro reduces TXA2 production, and Ginsenoside Ro also reduces COX-1 and TXAS activities to a lesser extent.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
The new and advantageous Ca2+ antagonist chemical ginsenoside Ro found in ginseng has the potential to prevent thrombotic disorders caused by platelet aggregation. Thrombin-stimulated platelet aggregation is dose-dependently inhibited by ginsenoside Ro, with an IC50 of about 155 μM [1]. Thrombin-induced platelet aggregation is prevented by ginsenoside Ro, which also suppresses the synthesis of TXA2. Platelet aggregation and thrombosis are facilitated by thromboxane A2 (TXA). Thrombin-induced TXB2 levels can be decreased dose-dependently (50-300 μM) by ginsenoside Ro; thrombin-mediated elevation of TXB2 levels can be inhibited by 94.9% at 300 μM. The protein COX-1 activity was 2.3 ± 0.1 nmol/mg when ginsenoside Ro (negative control) was depleted. The activity of COX-1 was, however, dose-dependently diminished by ginsenoside Ro (50–300 μM); at 300 μM, the activity of COX-1 was 26.4% lower than that of the negative control. The activity of TXA2 synthase (TXAS) was 220.8±1.8 ng/mg protein/min in the absence of ginsenoside Ro (negative control). In contrast, TXAS activity dropped by 22.9% at 300 μM relative to the negative control when ginsenoside Ro was added in a dose-dependent manner (50-300 μM). In comparison to its inhibitory effect on COX-1 (26.4%) and TXAS (22.9%) activities, ginsenoside Ro (300 μM) has a far greater effect on TXB2 production (94.9%) [2]. At 10 μM, 50 μM, 100 μM, and 200 μM concentrations, ginsenoside Ro was first treated for 24 hours in order to assess its toxicity in Raw 264.7 cells. No clear dose-dependent toxicity was observed in ginsenoside Ro. The impact of ginsenoside Ro on oxidative stress indicators (ROS) levels and cell viability were then assessed following an exposure to 1 μg/mL LPS. Approximately 70% less cells were viable after exposure to LPS than after no treatment. The viability of the cells was greatly increased by pretreating them with 100 μM and 200 μM ginsenoside Ro for one hour before incubating them with 1 μg/mL LPS for 24 hours. Ginsenoside Ro's effects on vitality are compatible with changes in ROS levels and NO generation [3].
ln Vivo
Prior to intravenous injection of HT29, mice were given water-soluble ginsenoside Ro by gavage at doses of 25 and 250 mg/kg/day for four days in order to maintain blood concentrations of ginsenoside Ro. The mice were then given ginsenoside Ro intravenously for 40 days after the level was reached. Following a 38-day course of therapy, the animals were slaughtered, and HT29 assessed the toxicity of ginsenoside Ro and mouse histology in addition to counting the number of lung metastases. With an 88% (P < 0.01) inhibition rate, ginsenoside Ro (250 mg/kg/day) can dramatically lower the amount of tumor nodules on the lung surface [4].
