Optical Activity UNSPECIFIED

Senegenin (Tenuigenin) is a natural product from Polygala tenuifolia used in Chinese medicine to improve memory and intelligence. Senegenin attenuated hepatic ischemia-reperfusion induced cognitive dysfunction via increasing NR2B expression in rat hippocampus. Senegenin displayed antiapoptotic and antioxidative activity in hippocampal neurons due to scavenging of intracellular reactive oxygen species, regulating Bcl-2 family and suppressing caspase-3 activity. In vitro studies have indicated that senegenin treatment suppresses secretion of amyloid β protein and attenuate its cytotoxicity. Anti-inflammatory effect of senegenin is expressed via inhibition of NF-κB activation and was investigated in preclinical models of pneumonia, osteoarthritis, acute liver injury and other diseases.

Sample Use Guides

In a study of ischemia-reperfusion induced cognitive dysfunction in rats, senegenin was administered orally at doses 15, 30 and 60 mg/kg once per day.
Route of Administration: Oral
To measure effect of senegenin on amyloid-beta secretion, COS-7 cells transfected with APP695 cDNA or the Swedish mutation (COS 695 Swe) were cultured in humidified air with tenuifolin (0.5-2.0 ug/mL). Cell media were collected after tenuifolin treatment and then diluted within the linear range of each assay. Sandwiched enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to detect Ab1-40 and Ab1-42 levels following the manufacturer’s instructions. Ab was visualized using a horseradish peroxidase-conjugated anti-rabbit immunoglobulin antibody.
