Description

Neoruscogenin, a member of the steroidal sapogenin family, is a high-affinity agonist of the nuclear receptor RORα (NR1F1) (EC50 = 0.11 µM)[1].

In Vitro

Neoruscogenin (0.1-10 μM) increases the cell viability, but has no effect on cell viability at 50 μM, and decreases the cell viability at 100 μM[2].
Neoruscogenin (0.1 μM, 5 days) promotes C2C12 myoblast differentiation[2].
Neoruscogenin (0.1 μM, 5 days) activates Akt/mTOR/rpS6 signaling pathway in C2C12 myoblasts, and inhibits the Atrogin-1 and MuRF-1 mRNA levels[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Western Blot Analysis[2]

Cell Line: C2C12 myoblasts
Concentration: 0.1 μM
Incubation Time: 5 days
Result: Increased protein expression of MyHC and MyOG at 0.1 μM, but did not work as well as 0.1 μM at 5 and 10 μM
In Vivo

Neoruscogenin (3 mg/kg,p.o. for seven days) activates hepatic RORα target gene (such as Bmal1, Cyp7b1, and G6Pase) expression in mice[1].
Neoruscogenin (1 mg/kg,i.p. every 2 days for 8 times) induces skeletal muscle hypertrophy in mice[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: male ICR mice[2]
Dosage: 1 mg/kg
Administration: i.p.
Result: Showd the larger size of TA muscles, and increasaed the weight of Gas muscles.
Showed visible myofibers hypertrophy (H&E staining).

In Vivo:

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.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (5.83 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic

    This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 0.56 mg/mL (1.31 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.56 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (5.6 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

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.
