Description générale

Diosgenin is a triterpene and a glycone derivative of dioscin. Yams, Trigonella foenum-graecum and Costus speciosus are some of its source.

Application

Diosgenin has been:
  • used as a standard in the analysis of total saponins in Sapindus rarak
  • orally administered to the rats to study its role against atherogenic diet-induced production of inflammatory mediators in heart, liver and brain
  • used as a standard compound to determine the saponins content in chickpea and Tribulus terrestris

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Diosgenin induces apoptosis in colon cancer cell lines and induces apoptosis, cell cycle arrest and cyclooxygenase activity in osteosarcoma cells. It serves as a precursor in steroid drug production. Diosgenin is shown to promote cholesterol production by stimulating biliary excretion. It influences lipoxygenase induced human erythroleukemia cell line differentiation.
