Ruscogenin is a major steroidal saponin found in the root of Ophiopogon japonicus. It was first isolated from Ruscus aculeatus.
Application
Ruscogenin has been used to study its therapeutic effects on Crohn′s disease (CD)-like colitis both in vitro and in vivo studies.
Actions biochimiques/physiologiques
Ruscogenin is a well-known compound for down-regulating nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), tissue factor (TF), inducible NO synthase (iNOS), and modulating inflammatory pathways. It displays anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI), and improving diabetic nephropathy in in vivo studies. Ruscogenin also exerts neuroprotective properties and protects the brain against ischemic injury in mouse model. It elicits anti-tumor properties by inducing ferroptosis in pancreatic cancer cells in both in vitro and in vivo studies.
