Description of Hecogenin

Hecogenin is a natural steroid sapogenin with diverse biological activities that was originally isolated from A. sisalana and has been used in the synthesis of steroids. It has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and neuroprotective properties. Hecogenin (10 μM) decreases superoxide anion formation induced by N-Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe in rat neutrophils by 23.6%. It also inhibits myeloperoxidase (MPO) release from human neutrophils activated by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate when used at a concentration of 1 μg/ml. Hecogenin inhibits proliferation of the breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468, MCF-10A, MCF-7, T47D, BT474, and SK-BR-3 (IC50s = 28.7-38.2 μM). It decreases the number of glutamate-induced TUNEL-positive primary rat spinal motor neurons by 11% when used at a concentration of 1 μM. In vivo, hecogenin (15 mg/kg) decreases the mucosal lesion area of ethanol-induced gastric ulceration in mice. It also decreases tumor volume in an MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer mouse xenograft model when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg three times per week.

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL saline, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
