General description

Soyasaponin I is an oleanene-type triterpenoid aglycone and is a group B soyasaponin. It is an amphiphilic molecule and is metabolized by intestinal bacteria into sugars and aglycones.

Application

Soyasaponin I has been used:
  • to test its effect on migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cell lines
  • as standard for the quantification of saponins from quinoa and fenugreek samples
  • as L-15 medium supplement for Zebrafish liver cell lines

Biochem/physiol Actions

Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory saponin found in soybean. Attenuates TNBS-induced colitis in mice. The structure consists of a glycoside moiety and triterpene derivative. Sialytransferase inhibitor and renin inhibitor.
