Product Description
Prosaikogenin G is isolated from the roots of Bupleurum and has a significant inhibitory effect on Ang II-induced proliferation of rat mesangial cells. Prosaikogenin G offers the kidneys protection. Saikosaponin d's gastrointestinal derivative is called prosaikogenin G.
Prosaikogenin G (buipusaponin G) (CAS 99365-23-8) is a monodesmosidic oleanane-type triterpenoid saponin with the molecular formula C₃₆H₅₈O₈ and a molecular weight of 618.84 g/mol. It is a derivative of saikosaponin d formed in the gastrointestinal tract. The compound is isolated from the roots of Bupleurum chinensis DC. and exhibits significant inhibitory effects on angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced rat mesangial cell proliferation, with protective effects on the kidney. It also exhibits notable anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activities and is being studied for its potential in managing liver disorders, immune dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. It is intended for research use only.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS); angiotensin II (Ang II) signaling. Prosaikogenin G inhibits angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced rat mesangial cell proliferation. Ang II is a key mediator of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) involved in renal function and blood pressure regulation. By inhibiting Ang II-induced mesangial cell proliferation, the compound exerts protective effects on the kidney. Its anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activities suggest modulation of inflammatory cytokine and oxidative stress pathways.
ln Vitro
Prosaikogenin G (25, 50 μM) does not harm normal MC and protects the kidney from the down-regulated activity that Ang II (1 μM) induces in the rat mesangial cell line (MC) proliferation[1].
Prosaikogenin G (25, 50 μM) does not harm normal rat mesangial cells (MC) and protects the kidney from the down-regulated activity that Ang II (1 μM) induces in rat mesangial cell proliferation. The compound shows significant inhibitory effects on Ang II-induced mesangial cell proliferation. It exhibits notable anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activities. The compound’s protective effects on the kidney suggest potential for managing renal disorders.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of prosaikogenin G are limited. As a derivative of saikosaponin d formed in the gastrointestinal tract, it is expected to contribute to the pharmacological effects of Bupleurum chinensis, which has been used in traditional medicine for liver and kidney disorders. Its anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activities suggest potential benefits in animal models of liver disease, immune dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. Further in vivo studies are needed to characterize its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cell-based assays for prosaikogenin G include enzyme inhibition studies to assess its effects on the renin-angiotensin system. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition assays can be performed using purified ACE and a fluorogenic substrate. The compound’s ability to inhibit ACE is measured by fluorescence detection. Anti-inflammatory activity can be assessed by measuring inhibition of cytokine production in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Standard analytical methods including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry are used for compound characterization.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays for prosaikogenin G use rat mesangial cell lines (MC) to assess its protective effects against Ang II-induced proliferation. Cells are treated with Ang II (1 μM) to induce proliferation, and prosaikogenin G (25, 50 μM) is added to assess its inhibitory effects. Cell proliferation is measured using MTT or BrdU incorporation assays. The compound’s effects on inflammatory cytokine production can be assessed in macrophage cell lines. Cytotoxicity is assessed using standard cell viability assays.
Animal Protocol
In vivo studies of prosaikogenin G are limited. Based on its biological activities, potential animal models include: models of renal disease for evaluating nephroprotective effects; models of liver injury for hepatoprotective evaluation; and models of chronic inflammation for anti-inflammatory evaluation. Standard protocols for these models involve administration of the compound followed by measurement of relevant endpoints.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Prosaikogenin G has a molecular formula of C₃₆H₅₈O₈ and a molecular weight of 618.84 g/mol. It is a monodesmosidic oleanane-type triterpenoid saponin isolated from the roots of Bupleurum chinensis DC.. It is a derivative of saikosaponin d formed in the gastrointestinal tract. The compound should be stored under recommended conditions. It is intended for research use only.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicity data for prosaikogenin G are limited. The compound does not harm normal rat mesangial cells at concentrations of 25-50 μM, suggesting low cytotoxicity to normal cells. As a natural saponin, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. Standard laboratory safety practices should be followed when handling this compound.
