Asperosaponin VI
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Asperosaponin VI is a saponin component from Dipsacus asper. Asperosaponin VI induces osteoblast differentiation through the BMP-2/p38 and ERK1/2 signaling pathways. Asperosaponin VI protects against hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis by activating the PI3K/Akt and CREB pathways. Additionally, Asperosaponin VI also has antidepressant and wound-healing-promoting activities.

Asperosaponin VI (0.1 nM-10 μM; 24-48 h) can promote the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells and primary rat osteoblasts, increase intracellular ALP activity, upregulate the protein level of BMP-2, and increase the phosphorylation of p38 and ERK1/2 to induce the maturation and differentiation of osteoblasts[1].
Asperosaponin VI (15-60 μg/mL; 24 h) can inhibit apoptosis and improve cell viability in hypoxia-treated H9C2 cells by reducing intracellular LDH and CK activities, increasing the phosphorylation levels of Akt and CREB, increasing the Bcl-2/Bax ratio, and reducing caspase-3 activity[2].
Asperosaponin VI (0-160 μg/mL; 0-48 h) promotes angiogenesis of HUVECs by upregulating the HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway[3].
