Timosaponin BII (TB-II) is a steroidal saponin-based antioxidant and an anti-inflammatory agent isolated from Anemarrhenae with diverse biological activities, e.g. neuronal protective, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities.
| ln Vitro |
With an IC50 value of 15.5 μg/mL in HL-60 cells, timosaponin BII, a steroidal glycoside isolated from Anemarrhenae, was found to be effective against human cancer cell lines, including HT-29 (colon), HepG2 and Bel-7402 (liver), HL-60 (leukemia), and MDA-MB-468 (breast cancer)[1].
Timosaponin BII exhibited cytotoxic activity against four human cancer cell lines in vitro as measured by the Sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay. The IC50 values were 2.46 µM against human hepatic carcinoma BEL-7402 cells, 1.65 µM against human colon carcinoma HT-29 cells, and 5.05 µM against human breast carcinoma MDA-MB-468 cells. It showed no significant activity (IC50 > 100 µM) against human cervix HeLa adenocarcinoma cells. [1] Among the isolated and modified compounds, Timosaponin BII (compound 2) and Timosaponin AIII (compound 4) showed the best cytotoxic activities against BEL-7402, HT-29, and MDA-MB-468 cell lines, with mean IC50 values of 3.05 µM and 1.82 µM, respectively. [1] Preliminary structure-activity relationship analysis indicated that the anti-proliferative activity of Timosaponin BII was reduced upon acid hydrolysis to yield derivatives 2a-2f. Among them, only derivative 2b showed certain cytotoxic activities against BEL-7402 and HT-29 cell lines, but these were weaker than the parent compound Timosaponin BII. The activity was significantly diminished when the E-ring was saturated (compound 3, derived from Timosaponin BII, showed no activity). [1] |

| ln Vivo |
Rats in both the vehicle control group and the model group had considerably higher levels of BACE1 expression in their retinas. Aβ1-40, β-CTF, and malondialdehyde (MDA) all rose at the same period. In contrast to the vehicle control group, the retinas from the tiemaponin-BII treated group exhibited considerably lower levels of BACE1 and collected less Aβ1-40 or β-CTF. Additionally, a notable reduction in MDA levels and an elevation in partial thromboplastin time are seen [2].

| Cell Assay |
The cytotoxic activities of the compounds were evaluated against human cancer cell lines (BEL-7402, HT-29, HeLa, and MDA-MB-468) using the Sulforhodamine B (SRB) protein coloration method. Briefly, cells were seeded in 96-well plates at optimal densities and incubated overnight. Triplicate wells were then treated with various concentrations of the test compounds and incubated for 72 hours. Doxorubicin was used as a positive control. After incubation, the culture medium was discarded, and the cells were fixed with pre-cooled 10% trichloroacetic acid at 4°C for 1 hour. The fixed cells were washed with distilled water and stained with 0.4% SRB in 1% acetic acid for 15 minutes. Unbound dye was removed by washing with 1% acetic acid. The plates were air-dried, and the bound dye was dissolved in 10 mM Tris base (pH 10.5). The absorbance of each well was measured at 560 nm using a multiwall spectrophotometer. The IC50 values were calculated using the Logit method. [1]

Melongoside N is a steroidal saponin.
Officinalisinin I has been reported in eggplant, and there is relevant data. Anemarrhena saponin BII is a steroidal saponin (furansterol type) isolated from the rhizome of Anemarrhena asphodeloides. [1] Anemarrhena saponin BII is one of the main components of the crude extract used in this study. [1] In this study, Anemarrhena saponin BII (1.0 g) was acid hydrolyzed at 100 °C with 0.5% nitric acid aqueous solution for 4 hours to obtain several derivatives (2a-2f), which were used for structure-activity relationship studies. [1] Preliminary structure-activity relationship analysis showed that for ironwood saponins, the saturated E ring significantly reduced cytotoxic activity, while the disaccharylation at the C-3 position seemed to increase the activity. Whether the F ring of a saponin is closed (spirostel) or open (furosemide) has no significant effect on its activity, as evidenced by the similar potent activities of ironwood saponin BII (furosemide) and ironwood saponin AIII (spirostel).

*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.
