IC50 Value & Target:
In Vitro: Inhibitory effect of ginsenoside-Rg2(R) on growth of NCI-H1650 cells is detected by MTT and Annexin-V-PI double staining assays. The results show that different concns. of ginsenoside Rg2(R) test solns. can inhibit the growth of NCI-H1650 cells to varying degrees, and the effect presents evident dose-response and time-effect relationships, i.e., the longer the action time, the stronger the inhibitory effect [1].
In Vivo: Havin activity suppressing the proliferation of both C6 and U251 cells. Structure-activity relationship anal. suggested that the acetyl group at C-28 for the Aesculus saponins and the monoterpenic acid moiety for the Gleditsia saponins could be crit [2]. Rg2(R) investigate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of Shengmai San (SMS) and its Et acetate ext. (SEa), n-butanol ext. (SBu), and aq. ext. (SWe), and clarify the material base of SMS and the roles played by its fractions [3].
