| Targets |
Pedunculoside targets lipid metabolism pathways. It regulates PPAR-γ and exerts its lipid-lowering effects through the regulation of lipid formation and fatty acid beta-oxidation. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory activity. Pedunculoside exhibits antitrypanosomal activity against both Trypanosoma cruzi Tulahuen CL2 and Trypanosoma brucei S427. It has been shown to ameliorate high-fat diet induced hyperlipidemia in rats.

| ln Vitro |
Ilex rotunda Thunb is the source of the triterpene saponin known as pedunculoside. Methyl isobutylxanthine, dexamethasone, insulin, or MDI, can drive 3T3L1 cells to produce PPAR-γ, CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα), and SREBP-1. Pedunculoside can also suppress AMPK. PSYCHOSYLATION [1].
In vitro, Pedunculoside regulates lipid metabolism by modulating lipogenesis and fatty acid β-oxidation. It regulates PPAR-γ expression. It exhibits antitrypanosomal activity against Trypanosoma cruzi and Trypanosoma brucei, though with relatively low potency (IC₅₀ values greater than 32000.0 nM). Its anti-inflammatory activity has been characterized in cell-based assays. Pedunculoside is a specialized tool for oncology and lipid metabolism research programs. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Pedunculoside ameliorates high-fat diet induced hyperlipidemia in rats. It exerts lipid-lowering effects through the regulation of lipid formation and fatty acid β-oxidation. Its anti-inflammatory activity has been demonstrated in animal models. The compound's ability to modulate lipid metabolism makes it a potential therapeutic candidate for metabolic disorders such as hyperlipidemia and associated cardiovascular diseases.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The activity of Pedunculoside can be assessed using cell-free enzyme assays targeting fatty acid synthase or other lipid metabolism enzymes. The enzyme is incubated with its substrate and cofactors in the presence of varying concentrations of Pedunculoside. The production of fatty acids or other lipid metabolites is measured using spectrophotometric or chromatographic methods. The IC₅₀ for enzyme inhibition is determined from dose-response curves.
|
| Cell Assay |
To evaluate the cellular effects of Pedunculoside, cells such as hepatocytes or adipocytes are treated with the compound. Lipid accumulation is measured using Oil Red O staining or by quantifying triglyceride content. The expression of genes involved in lipogenesis (e.g., FASN, SCD1) and fatty acid oxidation (e.g., PPARα, CPT1A) is analyzed by qRT-PCR. The effects on inflammation are assessed by measuring cytokine levels.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo studies with Pedunculoside typically involve administration to animal models of hyperlipidemia, such as high-fat diet-fed rats. The compound is administered via oral gavage. Blood lipid profiles (total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, HDL) are measured. Liver and adipose tissue are collected for histological analysis and gene expression studies. The compound's effects on body weight, food intake, and glucose metabolism are also monitored.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pedunculoside has a molecular formula of C₃₆H₅₈O₁₀ and a molecular weight of 650.84 g/mol. Its CAS number is 42719-32-4. It appears as a white to off-white solid. It is soluble in DMSO, pyridine, methanol, and ethanol. The purity is typically ≥98%. It should be stored at -20°C.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Specific toxicology data for Pedunculoside are not extensively detailed in the available literature. However, its use in animal studies at effective doses suggests a degree of tolerability. As with all research compounds, standard safety precautions should be taken when handling Pedunculoside. It is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption.

| Additional Infomation |
Pediflorin is a triterpenoid saponin. It has been reported to exist in Rubus ellipsoides, Ilex pubescens, and other organisms with relevant data.
Pedunculoside is a triterpenoid saponin extracted from Ilex rotunda Thunb with lipid-lowering, anti-inflammatory, and antitrypanosomal activities. It exerts its lipid-lowering effects through the regulation of lipogenesis and fatty acid β-oxidation. Pedunculoside is used as a research tool to study lipid metabolism, inflammation, and metabolic disorders such as hyperlipidemia. It is not a clinically approved drug. |

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (3.84 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
