Astragaloside II  (Synonyms: Astrasieversianin VIII)

Cat. No.: HY-N0433 Purity: 99.45%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Astragaloside II is an orally active Cycloartane-type triterpene glycoside. Astragaloside II can be extracted from Astragalus membranaceus. Astragaloside II inhibits Autophagy, decreases pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β), HIF-α, p-p65, p-IκB and increases SOD. Astragaloside II regulates immunity and reduces inflammatory responses. Astragaloside II can be used in the research of diseases such as liver cancer, osteoporosis, immunosuppressive diseases, and ulcerative colitis.

    AS II (Astragaloside II) attenuates oxidative stress damage in LPS-stimulated CCD-18Co cells via decreasing the production of inflammatory factors. CCD-18Co cells are treated with LPS (1 μg/mL) for 0, 12, 24 and 48 h. In addition, CCD-18Co cells are treated with 1 μM AS II and 1 μg/mL LPS for 48 h. The level of IL-6 in the culture media is measured with ELISA. The level of TNF-α in the culture media is measured with ELISA. The level of IL-β in the culture media is measured with ELISA.

    Description

    Astragaloside II is an orally active Cycloartane-type triterpene glycoside. Astragaloside II can be extracted from Astragalus membranaceus. Astragaloside II inhibits Autophagy, decreases pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β), HIF-α, p-p65, p-IκB and increases SOD. Astragaloside II regulates immunity and reduces inflammatory responses. Astragaloside II can be used in the research of diseases such as liver cancer, osteoporosis, immunosuppressive diseases, and ulcerative colitis[1][2][3][4][5].

    Astragaloside II (10-30 nM; 48-96 h) significantly enhances the proliferation of primary splenocytes induced by ConA, alloantigen or anti-CD3[3].
    Astragaloside II (80 μM; 48 h) sensitizes Bel-7402/FU cells to 5-fluorouracil (HY-90006)-induced cell death via suppression of autophagy[4].
    Astragaloside II (1 μM; 48 h) inhibits the levels of HIF-α, p-p65 and p-IκB in Lipopolysaccharide-stimulated CCD-18Co cells, exerting an anti-inflammatory effect[5].

    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 (3.02 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

      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% Corn Oil

      Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (3.02 mM); Clear solution

      This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown). If the continuous dosing period exceeds half a month, please choose this protocol carefully.

      Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL Corn oil, and mix evenly.

    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.
