Diammonium Glycyrrhizinate
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Diammonium glycyrrhizinate is a substance that can be extracted and purified from a traditional Chinese medicinal herb. Diammonium glycyrrhizinate has anti-inflammatory effect, resistance to biologic oxidation, membranous protection and a weak steroidal action. Diammonium glycyrrhizinate exerts protective effect by downregulating inflammation cytokines, suppressing the NF-κB pathway, and restoring superoxide dismutase. Diammonium glycyrrhizinate can be used as a hepatic protector and can therefore be studied in research for most liver diseases.

Biological Activity
Diammonium glycyrrhizinate (Compound DG) (0.001 mg/mL, 1 h before Aβ1-42) decreases the mRNA levels of TNF-α, COX-2, iNOS, and IL-1β increased by Aβ1-42 (5 μM)[4].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
