Biological Activity
Tylogenin, a steroidal aglycone generated by acid hydrolysis from two seasonal glycosides occurring in Tylophora sylvatica, inhibits IgE-induced basophil mediator release for allergic reactions. In the rabbit basophil-dependent serotonin release (BDSR) assay system, the inhibitory activity of tylogenin was significantly greater than that of its parent glycosides, tylophoroside and acetyltylophoroside, and that of dexamethasone. The activity of tylogenin was found to increase with the incubation time. In the human leukocyte-dependent histamine release test model, the glycosides had only a minimal activity. In contrast, tylogenin, with a geom mean IC50 = 49 microM, exerted a significantly greater potency than dexamethasone. These results suggest that tylogenin could represent a new class of antiallergic agents.
Safety & Regulatory
For Research Use Only (RUO). Not for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use. Wear appropriate PPE and consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to handling.
When solubility is listed as < 1 mg/mL, the compound dissolves to less than 1 mg per milliliter in water at 25 °C, pH 7.4. Such compounds require an organic co-solvent such as DMSO to prepare a concentrated stock, which is then diluted into aqueous assay buffer. For cell-based assays, keep the final DMSO concentration below 0.1% (v/v) to avoid solvent-induced cytotoxicity.
For currently available products, batch-specific purity data (HPLC chromatogram, NMR spectrum, and Certificate of Analysis) is accessible via the DataSheet link on the product page. For future or custom synthesis products, purity determination is conducted upon availability and published on the product page. Contact BioHippo for batch-specific CoA requests or custom synthesis enquiries.
