Protodioscin is a steroidal saponin compound found in a number of plant species, most notably in the Tribulus, Trigonella and Dioscorea families. Extracts from T. terrestris standardised have been demonstrated to produce proerectile effects in isolated tissues and aphrodisiac action in several animal species. Protodioscin have shown cytotoxic effects against a number of leukemia and solid tumors cell lines.

Sample Use Guides

24 New Zealand white rabbits were divided randomly into four groups of six each. Group I served control and was treated with vehicle alone. Groups II, III, IV were treated with three different concentrations of Tribulus terrestris extracts (2.5, 5 and 10 mg/kg, respectively), orally for 8 weeks.
Route of Administration: Oral
Protodioscin was tested for cytotoxicity in vitro against 60 human cancer cell lines in the NCI's (National Cancer Institute, USA) anticancer drug screen.
