General description

A ginsenoside metabolite that has been linked to endothelial cell function via the glucocortoid receptor (GR) and the oestrogen receptor (ER).

Application

Protopanaxadiol [20(R)-protopanaxadiol], a dammarane-type tetracyclic terpene sapogenin, may be used to study its binding to and modulation of endothelial cell function via glucocortoid (GR) and the oestrogen (ER) receptors. Protopanaxadiol may be used to study its catabolism by cytochrome-P450s. 20(R)-protopanaxadiol may be used in comparative studies versus 20(S)-protopanaxadiol.

Storage Class

13 - Non Combustible Solids

When ginsenoside Rg3 was anaerobically incubated with human fecal microflora, all specimens metabolized ginsenoside Rg3 to ginsenoside Rh2 and protopanaxadiol. The main metabolite was ginsenoside Rh2. 20(S)-ginsenoside Rg3 was quickly transformed to 20(S)-ginsenoside Rh2 or 20(S)-protopanaxadiol in an amount 19-fold
