Applications | Active against Candida albicans; shows cytotoxic activity. Effect of galanolactone on 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation was measured by Oil Red O staining, and cytotoxicity effect of galanolactone was analyzed by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol -2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. The expression of various genes involved in adipogenic action of galanolactone was determined by real-time PCR and Western blot. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) luciferase transactivation assay was used to evaluate the PPARγ transcriptional activity of galanolactone in HEK 293T cells. Galanolactone inhibited lipid accumulation and expression of adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein (aP2) and resistin in a dose-dependent manner in 3T3-L1 cells. Treatment with 50 and 100 μM of galanolactone significantly decreased the troglitazone-induced PPARγ transcripitional activity in HEK 293T cells, and suppressed expressions of PPARγ and CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein α (C/EBPα) at mRNA and protein levels in 3T3-L1 cells. These findings suggest that galanolactone exerts anti-obesity effect through down regulation of adipogenic transcription factors and adipogenic marker genes. Galanolactone inhibited contractile responses to 5-HT with a pIC50 value 4.93. pIC50 value of galanolactone against the response to 2-methyl-5-HT, a selective 5-HT3 agonist, in the presence of methysergide at 1 x 10(-5) M was 5.10. pIC50 values of ICS 205-930, a selective 5-HT3 antagonist, were 5.30 and 7.49, respectively. The concentration-response curve of 5-HT was shown as a biphasic curve and galanolactone caused a selective shift to the right of the second phase. In the same preparations, the pIC50 value of galanolactone and ICS 205-930 against the response to carbamylcholine (CCh) was 4.45 and 4.46. The inhibitory effect of galanolactone on the 5-HT response in the stomach fundus and aortic strips was less than that in the ileum. In addition, in the thoracic aorta precontracted with 50 mM K+, the relaxing effect of galanolactone was about 1/10 of that of papaverine. These results suggest that the anti-5-HT effect of galanolactone, a diterpenoid isolated from ginger, is related to antagonism of 5-HT3 receptors. |

After Receiving
The packaging of the product may have turned upside down during transportation, resulting in the product adhering to the neck or cap of the vial. take the vial out of its packaging and gently shake to let the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial. for liquid products, centrifuge at 200-500 RPM to gather the liquid at the bottom of the vial. try to avoid loss or contamination during handling.
