Description

Taraxerone is isolated from Sedum sarmentosum. Taraxerone enhances effects on alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activities with EC50 values of 512.42 and 500.16 μM, respectively[1].

IC50 & Target

EC50: 512.42 μM (ADH); 500.16 μM (ALDH)[1]

In Vivo

Taraxerone significantly lowers the plasma alcohol and acetaldehyde concentrations in mice. Compare to the control group, the ADH and ALDH expressions in the liver tissues are abruptly increased in the taraxerone-treated groups after ethanol exposure[1].
Taraxerone prevents catalase, superoxide dismutase, and reduces glutathione concentrations from the decrease induced by ethanol administration[1].

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.
