Theasaponin E1
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Theasaponin E1 is an orally effective tea saponin. Theasaponin E1 inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells by activating apoptosis. Theasaponin E1 inhibits angiogenesis in ovarian cancer cells and HUVECs by reducing the expression of VEGF. Theasaponin E1 upregulates the phosphorylation level of ATM protein and the expression level of PTEN protein in cancer cells, decreases the phosphorylation levels of Akt, mTOR, p70S6K and 4E-BP1 proteins, downregulates the expression of HIF-1α and NF-κB, and reduces the protein expression of Notch ligands Dll4 and Jagged1. Theasaponin E1 exerts neuroprotective effects by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase, activating α-secretase and neprilysin, reducing the concentration of Aβ, and inhibiting the activities of β-secretase and γ-secretase. Theasaponin E1 exhibits toxic effects on cancer cells and quinone reductase-inducing activity, and inhibits tumor growth in vivo. Theasaponin E1 induces ferroptosis in Pomacea canaliculata by synergistically disrupting cholesterol homeostasis and sphingolipid metabolism. Theasaponin E1 possesses anti-biofilm activity against Candida albicans. Theasaponin E1 can be used in the research of ovarian cancer, obesity, Alzheimer's disease and fungal infections.
