Acanthoic acid
Acanthoic acid (NP1302) is an orally active pimarane-type diterpenoid. Acanthoic acid is isolated from the root bark of Araliaceae family plant Eleutherococcus senticosus (Siberian ginseng). Acanthoic acid activates LXR and FXR. Acanthoic acid activates the AMPK-LKB1, SIRT1, and p38 MAPK signaling pathways and increases the phosphorylation level of ACC. Acanthoic acid downregulates the expression of SREBP-1, CYP2E1, HIF-1α, and PPARγ, and upregulates the expression of PPARα. Acanthoic acid induces Apoptosis by activating Caspase-3, promoting PARP cleavage, and downregulating Bcl-xL. Acanthoic acid exhibits antioxidant, anti-fibrotic, and hepatoprotective effects. It reduces lipid accumulation and lipogenesis. Acanthoic acid is used in studies on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, alcoholic liver disease, acute promyelocytic leukemia, and Acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity.

Acanthoic acid (5 μM; 3 days) modulates FXR, LXRα, LXRβ, and SREBP-1 protein levels in PA-stimulated AML-12 hepatocytes, consistent with activation of FXR/LXR signaling and downregulation of SREBP-1[1].

In EtOH/LPS-stimulated AML-12 mouse hepatocytes, acanthoic acid (5-20 µM; 2 h pretreatment + 48 h co-treatment) reduces lipid deposition and inflammatory cytokine production while activating the Sirt1/LKB1/AMPK/ACC and LXRs signaling pathways[2].
Acanthoic acid (50-200 μM; 0-24 h) inhibits HL-60 human promyelocytic leukaemia cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner, with 86% growth reduction at 150 μM after 24 h[3].
Acanthoic acid (150 μM; 3 h) activates ERK and p38 MAPK phosphorylation in HL-60 human promyelocytic leukaemia cells after 3 h of treatment at 150 μM[3].
