Biological Activity
| ln Vivo |
Antidepressant-like effect in mice: Male ICR mice were used, divided into control group (0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium, CMC-Na), Bacopaside I treatment groups (10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg), and positive control group (imipramine 15 mg/kg). Behavioral tests and biochemical analyses were conducted after 7 days of administration: 1. Behavioral test results: - Forced Swim Test (FST): Bacopaside I dose-dependently reduced immobility time. The 40 mg/kg group had the most significant effect, with immobility time reduced by 42.3 ± 3.5% compared to the control group [2] - Tail Suspension Test (TST): The 20 mg/kg and 40 mg/kg groups showed reduced immobility time; the 40 mg/kg group had a 38.6 ± 2.8% reduction vs control [2] 2. Interaction with noradrenergic system: - Co-administration of Bacopaside I (20 mg/kg) with yohimbine (α2-adrenergic antagonist, 1 mg/kg) enhanced the antidepressant effect, further reducing FST immobility time by 25.1 ± 2.1% vs Bacopaside I alone [2] - Co-administration with propranolol (β-adrenergic antagonist, 10 mg/kg) reversed the antidepressant effect of Bacopaside I (20 mg/kg), increasing FST immobility time by 31.4 ± 2.3% vs Bacopaside I alone [2] 3. Oxidative stress indicators: - Bacopaside I (40 mg/kg) reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) level in mouse brain tissue by 35.2 ± 3.1% and increased glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity by 41.5 ± 3.6% compared to the control group [2] |
| Animal Protocol |
Antidepressant experiment in mice: 1. Animal preparation: Male ICR mice (20-22 g) were housed in a controlled environment (23±1°C, 12-hour light/dark cycle) with free access to food and water. They were acclimated for 7 days before the experiment [2] 2. Drug preparation and administration: - Bacopaside I was dissolved in 0.5% CMC-Na to prepare solutions of 1 mg/mL, 2 mg/mL, and 4 mg/mL [2] - Mice in treatment groups received intraperitoneal injection of Bacopaside I at 10 mg/kg, 20 mg/kg, or 40 mg/kg (0.1 mL/10 g body weight) once daily for 7 consecutive days [2] - The control group received 0.5% CMC-Na (equal volume), and the positive control group received imipramine (15 mg/kg, intraperitoneal injection) [2] 3. Behavioral tests: - FST: Mice were placed in a cylindrical tank (25 cm diameter, 30 cm height, water depth 15 cm, 25±1°C) for 6 minutes; immobility time was recorded in the last 4 minutes [2] - TST: Mice were suspended by the tail (1 cm from the tip) for 6 minutes; immobility time was recorded in the last 4 minutes [2] 4. Biochemical detection: After behavioral tests, mice were sacrificed, and brain tissues were collected. MDA level and GSH-Px activity were detected using corresponding assay kits [2] |

| Additional Infomation |
Bacopaside I has been reported in Bacopa monnieri with data available. 1. Background of Bacopaside I: Bacopaside I is a pseudojujubogenin glycoside isolated from the aerial parts of the medicinal plant Bacopa monniera (Scrophulariaceae family) [1] 2. Antidepressant mechanism: The antidepressant-like effect of Bacopaside I may involve two pathways: (1) Modulating the noradrenergic system (evidenced by interaction with α2/β-adrenergic antagonists); (2) Alleviating oxidative stress in brain tissue (by reducing MDA and increasing GSH-Px activity) [2] 3. Research significance: This study provides experimental evidence for the antidepressant potential of Bacopaside I, supporting its further development as a candidate for treating depressive disorders [2] |

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (2.55 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (2.55 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (2.55 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
