| Targets |
Rhodojaponin III binds to NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK) with a binding energy of -7.2 kcal/mol (determined by molecular docking) [1]
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Rhodojaponin III inhibited LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 mouse macrophages with an IC₅₀ value of 7 μM (assessed by Griess assay) [1]
It dose-dependently reduced the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α) in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells [1] It suppressed LPS-induced COX-2 and iNOS protein expression in macrophage cells [1] The compound directly interacted with NIK, inhibiting the NIK/NF-κB pathway activation and preventing nuclear translocation of NF-κB, thereby reducing transcription of inflammatory genes [1] It also reduced phosphorylation of IKKα and NF-κB p65 in LPS-stimulated cells [1] |
| Cell Assay |
RAW264.7 cells were cultured in DMEM medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin-streptomycin at 37°C in a 5% CO₂ incubator until 80-90% confluent [1]
Cells were seeded in 96-well plates at 1 × 10⁵ cells/well, allowed to attach overnight, pretreated with Rhodojaponin III (1, 5, 10, 20 μM) for 2 h, then stimulated with LPS (1 μg/mL) for 24 h; control groups included untreated cells and LPS-treated cells without the compound [1] For NO measurement: 100 μL of culture supernatant was mixed with 100 μL of Griess reagent, incubated at room temperature for 15 min, absorbance was measured at 540 nm, and NO concentration was calculated using a sodium nitrite standard curve [1] For cytokine assay: Culture supernatants were collected, and IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α levels were measured by ELISA [1] For Western blot: Cells were lysed in RIPA buffer with protease and phosphatase inhibitors, protein concentration was determined by BCA assay, equal amounts of protein (30-50 μg) were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, blocked with 5% non-fat milk, incubated with primary antibodies (COX-2, iNOS, p-IKKα, IKKα, p-NF-κB p65, NF-κB p65, β-actin) overnight at 4°C, followed by HRP-conjugated secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, and protein bands were visualized by ECL detection system [1] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Rhodioloside III exhibited high acute toxicity in mice, with an intraperitoneal LD₅₀ of 0.271 mg/kg [1]. Due to toxicity issues, its therapeutic window is limited [1].

| Additional Infomation |
Rhodojaponin III has been reported in Elliottia paniculata, Rhododendron japonoheptamerum, and other organisms with relevant data. Rhodojaponin III is a purine-type diterpenoid isolated from the leaves of Rhododendron molle [1]. Its anti-inflammatory activity is structure-dependent, with the purine skeleton being essential for its activity [1]. Despite its significant anti-inflammatory effects, its clinical development is limited due to its high toxicity [1]. Its interaction with NIK provides a novel mechanism for anti-inflammatory therapy [1].

*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.
