1. Gymnestrogenin

Gymnestrogenin is a pentahydroxytriterpene from the leaves of Gymnema sylvestre R.Br. Gymnestrogenin is a LXR antagonist with IC50s of 2.5 and 1.4 μM for LXRα and LXRβ transactivation, respectively. Gymnestrogenin reduces the transcriptional activity of LXR even on its own promoter, thus reducing the mRNA expression.

Description

Gymnestrogenin is a pentahydroxytriterpene from the leaves of Gymnema sylvestre R.Br[1]. Gymnestrogenin is a LXR antagonist with IC50s of 2.5 and 1.4 μM for LXRα and LXRβ transactivation, respectively. Gymnestrogenin reduces the transcriptional activity of LXR even on its own promoter, thus reducing the mRNA expression[2].

IC50 & Target

IC50: 2.5 μM (LXRα) and 1.4 μM (LXRβ)[2]

In Vitro

Gymnestrogenin, reducing the expression of SREBP1c and ABCA1 in vitro, is able to decrease lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
