Product Description
Ganoderic acid N is a natural terpene isolated from the fungus Ganoderma lucidum.
Ganoderic acid N (CAS 110241-19-5) is a triterpenoid compound isolated from Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi) and G. lingzhi. It has the molecular formula C₃₀H₄₄O₅ and a molecular weight of approximately 484.67 g/mol. Ganoderic acid N exhibits diverse biological activities, including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity with an IC₅₀ of 0.941 mM in a cell-free assay. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, and anticancer effects. The compound modulates immune responses, inhibits tumor cell proliferation, and protects against oxidative stress-induced damage. It induces apoptosis in cancer cells by activating caspases and inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. It is intended for research use only.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE); PI3K/Akt signaling pathway; NF-κB signaling pathway. Ganoderic acid N inhibits ACE with an IC₅₀ of 0.941 mM in a cell-free assay. It induces apoptosis in cancer cells by activating caspases and inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Its anti-inflammatory activity is mediated through inhibition of NF-κB signaling and reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokine production. The compound also has antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects.
ln Vitro
Ganoderic acid N inhibits ACE in a cell-free assay with an IC₅₀ of 0.941 mM. It induces apoptosis in cancer cells by activating caspases and inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. The compound exhibits anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting NF-κB signaling and reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production. It also has antioxidant, hepatoprotective, and anticancer effects, inhibits tumor cell proliferation, and protects against oxidative stress-induced damage.
ln Vivo
In vivo studies of ganoderic acid N are limited. As a triterpenoid from Ganoderma lucidum with ACE inhibitory, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, and anticancer activities, it has potential for evaluation in animal models of hypertension, inflammation, liver disease, and cancer. Its ability to modulate immune responses and inhibit tumor cell proliferation suggests potential therapeutic applications. Further in vivo studies are needed to characterize its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties.
Enzyme Assay
Non-cell-based assays for ganoderic acid N include ACE inhibition assays using purified ACE and a fluorogenic or chromogenic substrate. The enzyme is incubated with substrate in the presence of various concentrations of the compound, and ACE activity is measured by detecting the cleavage product. The IC₅₀ of 0.941 mM is determined from the dose-response curve. PI3K/Akt kinase activity assays can be performed using recombinant kinases. Standard analytical methods including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry are used for compound characterization.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays for ganoderic acid N use various cancer cell lines to assess apoptosis induction and PI3K/Akt signaling inhibition. Cells are treated with the compound at various concentrations, and apoptosis is evaluated by flow cytometry using Annexin V/PI staining and caspase activity assays. PI3K/Akt pathway activation is assessed by Western blot. For anti-inflammatory studies, macrophage cell lines are stimulated with LPS and treated with the compound, and inflammatory cytokine production is measured.
Animal Protocol
In vivo studies of ganoderic acid N are limited. Based on its biological activities, potential animal models include: hypertension models for ACE inhibition evaluation; tumor xenograft models for anticancer evaluation; liver injury models for hepatoprotective evaluation; and inflammation models for anti-inflammatory evaluation. Standard protocols for these models involve administration of the compound followed by measurement of relevant endpoints.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Ganoderic acid N has a molecular formula of C₃₀H₄₄O₅ and a molecular weight of approximately 484.67 g/mol. It is a triterpenoid isolated from Ganoderma lucidum and G. lingzhi. The compound is soluble in DMSO. It should be stored under recommended conditions. It is intended for research use only.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicity data for ganoderic acid N are limited. As a natural triterpenoid from Ganoderma lucidum, it is generally considered to have low toxicity. The compound exhibits anticancer activity by inducing apoptosis in cancer cells, indicating biological activity at certain concentrations.
