| Targets |
Solasodine functions as a neuroprotective antioxidant. It increases the levels of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione (GSH), while reducing lipid peroxidation (LPO) and nitric oxide (NO) levels. It reduces glutamate-induced excitotoxicity in PC12 cells. Its mechanism involves mitigating oxidative stress in the brain.

| ln Vitro |
After two days of treatment with solasodine (90 μM), P19 cells exhibited substantial budding. Strong expression of various neuronal markers, including as βIII-tubulin, synaptophysin, MAP2, ChAT, and the neuroblast marker doublecortin, was induced by solasodine. P19 cells are stimulated to differentiate by solasodine, mostly along neural routes [1]. By suppressing the p53-MDM2 complex, p21Waf1/Cip1, and Bcl-2 proteins, solasodine causes apoptosis [3].
In vitro, Solasodine reduces glutamate-induced excitotoxicity in PC12 cells. It acts as an antioxidant by increasing SOD, CAT, and GSH levels, and decreasing LPO and NO. Its neuroprotective effects have been demonstrated in various in vitro models of oxidative stress. |
| ln Vivo |
In PCT-induced convulsions, solasodine (25–100 mg/kg; i.p.; once) therapy markedly postponed the hindlimb myotonic extensor (HLTE) phase's latency. and in a dose-dependent way greatly improved thiopental-induced sleep. Anticonvulsant and CNS depressive properties are exhibited by solasodine [2]. After two weeks of treatment with solasodine (375 μM; icv), ependymal, subventricular zone, and cortical cells that colocalized with doublecortin immunostaining showed a substantial increase in bromodeoxyuridine uptake. Rats given solanodine treatment exhibit a substantial upregulation of drug-binding translocators and cholesterol expression in ependymal cells [1].
In vivo, Solasodine has been studied in a rat model of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. It increases SOD, CAT, and GSH levels and reduces LPO and NO levels in the brain, demonstrating neuroprotective activity. It has shown potential in mitigating oxidative stress in the brain. |
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme assays for Solasodine typically measure its effects on antioxidant enzyme activity. The compound's ability to increase SOD, CAT, and GSH levels, and decrease LPO and NO, can be assessed in cell lysates using colorimetric or fluorometric assays.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cellular assays for Solasodine involve treating neuronal cell lines, such as PC12 cells, with the compound to assess its neuroprotective effects against excitotoxicity or oxidative stress. Cell viability, ROS levels, and antioxidant enzyme activities are measured as endpoints.

| Animal Protocol |
Animal/Disease Models: Swiss albino mice (18-25 g) treated with picrotoxin (PCT) or thiopental [2]
Doses: 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg Route of Administration: i.p. Injection; Experimental Results: Latency of the hindlimb myotonic extensor (HLTE) phase was Dramatically delayed in PCT-induced convulsions. and Dramatically enhanced thiopental-induced sleep in a dose-dependent manner. In vivo animal models for Solasodine include rat models of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The compound is typically administered via intraperitoneal or oral routes, and its effects on oxidative stress markers (SOD, CAT, GSH, LPO, NO) in the brain are assessed. |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Labeled sorasolidone was injected into two healthy males and Syrian hamsters. In the two males, (3)H in the blood was primarily bound to erythrocytes, still accounting for 3.3% of the dose after 8 days; plasma contained 1.6% of the dose, urine contained 7%, and feces contained 20%. In the hamsters, (3)H excretion decreased to very low levels after 8 days, with 22-30% of the dose excreted. Unchanged sorasolidone was still detectable in the liver 22 days after administration. Solasodine has a molecular formula of C27H43NO2 and a molecular weight of 413.64 g/mol. It is also known as Spirosol-5-en-3-ol and Solasod-5-en-3β-ol. It is a steroidal alkaloid found in Solanum species. The compound is typically stored as a powder at -20°C. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Solasodine is a glycoalkaloid with a well-established safety profile at certain doses. As with any alkaloid, potential toxicity may include effects on the nervous system. The compound is for research use only and is not approved for human therapeutic use. It should be handled with appropriate safety precautions.
