Saikogenin D is an effective PGE2 inhibitor isolated from Bupleurum chinense. This compound exhibits significant anti-inflammatory properties by activating epoxygenases, leading to the conversion of arachidonic acid into epoxyeicosanoids and dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids, which subsequently suppress PGE2 production. Saikogenin D also induces an increase in intracellular calcium levels ([Ca2+]i) through the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores, making it a valuable tool for studying inflammatory pathways.
