Hecogenin acetate
Catalog No. A26152

Hecogenin acetate is an orally active steroid saponin aglycone that functions primarily as an anti-inflammatory and analgesic agent. It exerts its biological effects by inhibiting the phosphorylation of NF-κB and p38 MAPK signaling pathways, antagonizing TRPA1/TRPM8 channels, and reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Additionally, Hecogenin acetate demonstrates neuroprotective and anti-tumor properties, inhibits reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and downregulates MMP-2 expression. This compound also enhances gastric mucosal defense and promotes ulcer healing while potentially restoring antibiotic sensitivity when used in combination with specific antibiotics.
