Ecdysone 是存在于昆虫和草药中的主要类固醇激素,可以激活盐皮质激素受体并诱导细胞凋亡。Ecdysone 的活性代谢物 20-羟基蜕皮激素在协调发育过渡和体内稳态睡眠调节中起重要作用。
产品描述
Ecdysone is a major steroid hormone in insects and herbs. Ecdysone triggers mineralocorticoid receptor activation and induces cellular apoptosis. Ecdysone signaling through Ecdysone receptor isoform B1 is required cell autonomously for the muscle death.
体外活性
Ecdysone (10, 100 nM) induced the expression of a-smooth muscle actin (SMA). Ecdysone elevated the expression of cleaved caspase 3 in a dose dependent manner. Ecdysone (10, 100 nM) suppressed cell motility and scratch wound closure to a comparable extent[4]. Ecdysone (100 nM) induced a branched spindle mesenchymal-like cell shape. Ecdysone (100 nM) caused renal tubular inner medullary collecting duct cells apoptosis[4].
体内活性
In male C57BL/6 mice, Ecdysone (6 μg/g/day; s.c.) significantly impaired renal function, and BUN levels were statistically significantly increased, amplifying the renal expression of α-SMA. Ecdysone also displayed MR-dependent nephrotic effects[4].
