Biological Activity
| ln Vitro | Anti-thrombotic, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-depressant, anti-hypertensive, toxicological, and adverse reaction properties are just a few of the actions of geniposide [1]. The production of IL-8, IL-1β, and MCP-1 in brain microvascular endothelial cells induced by OGD is significantly reduced by geniposide. This results in a significant inhibition of P2Y14 receptor expression and phosphorylation of RAF-1, MEK1/2, and ERK1/2[2]. |
| ln Vivo | In a dose-dependent way, geniposide (200 and 400 mg/kg) dramatically lowered insulin, TG, and blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. A considerable reduction in alcohol-induced blood ALT/AST and excessive rise of liver LPO levels can be achieved by using geniposide (20.0, 40.0, or 80 mg/kg), which also lowers immune protein response levels and GP and G6Pase expression at mRNA levels. By increasing the production of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), geniposide alleviates the transplantation-induced stress on primary cultured hippocampus neuron cells caused by 3-modenoimine hydrochloride (SIN-1) [4]. prevents IκB from degrading and turns into an extremely powerful NF-κB coupling [1]. |

Solubility Data
| Solubility (In Vitro) |
DMSO : ~100 mg/mL (~257.49 mM) H2O : ~50 mg/mL (~128.74 mM) |
| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (7.08 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 27.5 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: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (7.08 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 27.5 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: ≥ 2.75 mg/mL (7.08 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 27.5 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly. Solubility in Formulation 4: 100 mg/mL (257.49 mM) in PBS (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution; with ultrasonication (<60°C).  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |
