Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Chikusetsusaponin IVa is an orally active protein kinase activator. Chikusetsusaponin IVa binds to YAP with a KD value of 0.388 mM. Chikusetsusaponin IVa reduces inflammatory mediators (IL-6, IL-10, COX-2) expression, NO production, promotes ROS generation, induces Apoptosis, inhibits MAPK, TAZ, and regulates Nrf2, JAK/STAT. Chikusetsusaponin Iva has anti-H9N2 AIV and anti-endometrial cancer activities. Chikusetsusaponin Iva shows anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective and osteoprotective effects.
