Name | Rubrofusarin gentiobioside |
Description | Rubrofusarin gentiobioside (Rubrofusarin-6-O-beta-D-gentiobioside) can significantly decrease the expression of TGF-beta1 and fibronectin and NF-kappaB DNA binding activity, suggests that it has potential as a preventive agent for advanced glycation end products-related diabetic complications. |
In vitro | To examine the pharmacological effects of a butanol-soluble extract of CS under conditions of diabetic nephropathy, we evaluated the expression of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) and fibronectin, key mediators of diabetic nephropathy, in mouse glomerular mesangial cells cultured in the presence of S100b (a specific ligand for receptor of advanced glycation end products). CS inhibited S100b-induced TGF-beta1 and fibronectin expression in mouse mesangial cells by suppressing activation of Smad2/3, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and oxidative stress. Moreover, CS suppressed nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) activation in S100b-stimulated mouse mesangial cells. To identify the active compounds of CS, three major compounds, Rubrofusarin-6-O-beta-D-gentiobioside (CS-A), toralactone-9-O-beta-d-gentiobioside (CS-B), and cassiaside (CS-C), were tested in cells. Of these compounds, CS-A significantly decreased the expression of TGF-beta1 and fibronectin and NF-kappaB DNA binding activity[1] |
