Ginsenoside Rg4 (0.01-0.2 mg/mL, 6 h) decreases the expressions of toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and TNF-α levels in HMGB1-activated HUVECs[1].
Ginsenoside Rg4 (0.1-0.2 mg/mL, 6 h) increases cell viability by activating PI3K/AKT signaling in HMGB1-activated HUVECs[1].
Ginsenoside Rg4 (20-50 μg/mL, 48 h) promotes the hair-inductive properties of DP cells by activating the AKT/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling pathway in dermal papilla (DP) sphere[2].
