Tigogenin is a steroidal sapogenins. Tigogenin can inhibit adipocytic differentiation and induce osteoblastic differentiation in mouse bone marrow stromal cells. Tigogenin can inhibit cells proliferation and induce apoptosis. Tigogenin can be used for the researches of cancer, inflammation, immunology, metabolic and cardiovascular disease, such as mammary gland carcinoma, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and atherosclerosis.

Description

Tigogenin is a steroidal sapogenins. Tigogenin can inhibit adipocytic differentiation and induce osteoblastic differentiation in mouse bone marrow stromal cells. Tigogenin can inhibit cells proliferation and induce apoptosis. Tigogenin can be used for the researches of cancer, inflammation, immunology, metabolic and cardiovascular disease, such as mammary gland carcinoma, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and atherosclerosis[1][2][3][4].

In Vitro

Tigogenin (10-90 μM, 3 days) promotes bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) proliferation in a dose-dependent manner[1].
Tigogenin (10-90 μM, 18 days) decreases lipid accumulation and visfatin secretions in BMSCs[1].
Tigogenin (10-90 μM, 5-18 days) reduces PPAR mRNA and ap2 levels in BMSCs[1].
Tigogenin (10-90 μM, 5 days) increases levels of mRNA for Cbfa1, COL I, OCN and ALP activity in BMSCs[1].
Tigogenin (30 μM, 5-40 mins) activates the phosphorylation of p38 kinase in BMSCs[1].
Tigogenin (40 μM, 24-96 h) inhibits proliferation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synoviocytes[2].
Tigogenin (40 μM, 6-24 h) induces apoptosis in RA synoviocytes[2].
Tigogenin (40 μM, 1-24 h) increases P38, COX-2 and PEG2 levels in RA synoviocytes[2].
Tigogenin (20 μM, 24 h) reduces FXR, SHP, and BSEP levels companied with CDCA (HY-76847) in HepG2 cells[3].
Tigogenin (L–serine derivative of Tigogenin) (48 h) inhibits MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells proliferation with IC50 values of 1.5 and 10.5 μM[4].
Tigogenin (L–serine derivative of Tigogenin) (2.8-7 μM, 18 h) induces apoptosis and increases caspase 3/7 activity in MCF-7 cells[4].
Tigogenin (L–serine derivative of Tigogenin) (5 μM, 6 h) reduces TNF-α, IL-1, IL-12, IL-10 and IL-4 levels in THP–1 cells[4].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
