Products with Nephroprotective bioactivity
| Cat.No. | Product Name |
|---|---|
| BCN2962 | Guanosine |
| Guanosine and GMP show anticonvulsant properties, which may be related with antagonism of glutamate receptors; they also prevent seizures induced by quinolinic acid in mice.Guanosine protects against renal ischemic injury by replenishing GTP stores and preventing tubular apoptosis. | |
| BCN2985 | Kurarinone |
| Kurarinone exhibits anti-tumor, estrogenic, and anti-inflammatory activities, it also shows strong inhibitory effect on immune responses. Kurarinone may ameliorate chronic inflammatory skin diseases through the suppression of pathogenic CD4(+) T-cell differentiation and the overall immune response. Kurarinone sensitizes TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL)-induced tumor cell apoptosis via suppression of NF-κB-dependent cFLIP expression; it may be by way of down-regulating Smad3 expression to interfere its induction on intercellular signal transduction and consequently ameliorate renal interstitial fibrosis. | |
| BCN3260 | Chebulic acid |
| 1. Chebulic acid at both doses (25 and 50 mg/kg) improves biochemical alterations caused by renal ischemia in diabetic rats. 2. Chebulic acid has effects against the progression of AGE-induced endothelial cell dysfunction, may constitute a promising intervention agent against diabetic vascular complications. 3. Chebulic acid significantly reduced the tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP)-induced cell cytotoxicity, intracellular reactive oxygen species level, and the ratio of GSSH, oxidized form of glutathione (GSH) to the over total GSH (GSH + GSSG) (4.42%) as compared to that with t-BHP alone (8.33%). | |
| BCN3502 | Ginsenoside Rk3 |
| Ginsenoside Rk3 is often used as a major ingredient of the compound preparation for ischemic heart diseases, it could have a role in treating inflammatory diseases. Ginsenoside Rk3 significantly inhibits TNF-α-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity, with an IC50 of 14.24±1.30 μM in HepG2 cells. | |
| BCN3503 | Ginsenoside Rh4 |
| Ginsenoside Rh4 is a rare saponin obtained from Panax notoginseng. Ginsenoside Rh4 activates Bax, caspase 3, caspase 8, and caspase 9. Ginsenoside Rh4 also induces autophagy. Ginsenoside Rh4 could be safely used as adjuvant with low or non-haemolytic effect; it has cytotoxic activity and its aglycone against cancer cell lines. | |
