Product Description
Platycodin D2 is a saponin in Platycodon grandiflorum that has anti-cancer activity.
Platycodin D2 (CAS 66663-90-9) is a triterpenoid saponin isolated from the roots of Platycodon grandiflorum (balloon flower). With a molecular formula of C₆₃H₁₀₂O₃₃ and a molecular weight of 1387.46 g/mol, this compound is known for its lower hemolytic activity compared to other saponins. Platycodin D2 exhibits a wide range of pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticancer, and immunomodulatory properties. It can improve specific cellular and humoral responses to hepatitis B surface antigen in mice and has been safely used as an adjuvant eliciting Th1 and Th2 immune responses. It also inhibits the proliferation of various human tumor cell lines, including A549, SK-OV-3, and HCT-15.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Platycodin D2 targets multiple pathways involved in inflammation, immunity, and cancer. As an immunomodulatory agent, it improves both cellular and humoral immune responses. Its anticancer activity is likely mediated through the induction of apoptosis in tumor cells. It also inhibits inflammatory mediators, contributing to its anti-inflammatory effects.
ln Vitro
In vitro, Platycodin D2 significantly inhibits the proliferation of five cultured human tumor cell lines: A549 (non-small cell lung), SK-OV-3 (ovary), SK-MEL-2 (melanoma), XF498 (central nervous system), and HCT-15 (colon). It demonstrates anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anticancer activities in various cell-based models. The compound's diverse bioactivities make it a subject of extensive pharmacological research.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Platycodin D2 has been shown to improve specific cellular and humoral responses to hepatitis B surface antigen in mice, highlighting its potential as a vaccine adjuvant. Its lower hemolytic activity makes it safer for in vivo use compared to other saponins. It has also been studied for its anticancer and immunomodulatory effects in animal models.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro non-cell enzyme assays for Platycodin D2 are not standard. Its mechanism is typically studied in cell-based systems. However, its effects on immune cells can be assessed by measuring cytokine production and cell proliferation in response to antigens.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for Platycodin D2 use tumor cell lines (e.g., A549, SK-OV-3) to evaluate its antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic activity. For immunomodulatory studies, immune cells are treated with the compound, and the production of cytokines (e.g., IL-2, IFN-γ) and the expression of surface markers are measured to assess Th1 and Th2 immune responses.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for Platycodin D2 employ mouse models to evaluate its immunomodulatory and adjuvant activity. Mice are immunized with an antigen (e.g., hepatitis B surface antigen) in the presence of Platycodin D2, and the specific humoral (antibody titers) and cellular (T-cell proliferation, cytokine production) immune responses are measured. Tumor xenograft models can also be used to study its anticancer efficacy.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Platycodin D2 has a molecular weight of 1387.46 g/mol and a molecular formula of C₆₃H₁₀₂O₃₃. It is a complex saponin with a large molecular weight. It is soluble in DMSO (90 mg/mL). For storage, it should be kept as a powder at -20°C for 3 years or at 4°C for 2 years. As a saponin, it is expected to have poor oral bioavailability.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Platycodin D2 is described as a "less hemolytic saponin," indicating it has a better safety profile than many other saponins. In vivo studies have shown it can be safely used as an adjuvant. However, comprehensive toxicological data are limited, and as a potent bioactive compound, it should be handled with care in research settings.
