Description générale

Saponins are steroid or triterpenoid glycosides. They are biosurfactants that have several uses in the food and cosmetic industry.

Application

Saponin from Quillaja bark has been used:
  • to stain fertilized oocytes
  • in the analysis of intracellular cytokine production
  • to permeabilize dendritic cells

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Saponins solubilize the low density lipoprotein (LDL) fraction of cholesterol in micelles, thus lowering their concentration. Saponin from Quillaja bark is used as a flavoring agent in food and beverages. This saponin has been shown to enhance immune-cell proliferation in vitro.
Potent hemolytic when injected i.v.; surfactant that enhances penetration of proteins and other macromolecules through cell membranes; it also has been used as an adjuvant for vaccines.

A few membrane-intercalating amphipaths have been observed to stimulate the interaction of cholesterol with cholesterol oxidase, saponin and cyclodextrin, presumably by displacing cholesterol laterally from its phospholipid complexes. We now report that this effect, referred to as cholesterol activation, occurs
