In vitro study | Ginsenoside Rg5 plays a novel role as an IGF-1R agonist. Ginsenoside Rg5 binds to IGF-1R with an IC 50 value of ~90 and its angiogenic activity is inhibited by IGF-1R knockdown. To investigate the possible interaction of Ginsenoside Rg5 with IGF-1R, a docking analysis is performed. Docking results show that Ginsenoside Rg5 binds strongly at two sites, A and B, with K d values of 20 and 27 nM, respectively, to the cysteine-rich domain of IGF-1R. Pretreatment with Rg5 blocks the binding of radiolabeled IGF-1 to HUVECs with an IC 50 value of ~90 μM, which is greater than an IC 50 value of ~1.4 nM for unlabeled IGF-1. The results from MTT assay show that MCF-7 cell proliferation is inhibited by Ginsenoside Rg5 treatment for 24, 48 and 72 h in a dose-dependent manner. Ginsenoside Rg5 at different concentrations (0, 25, 50 and 100 μM), induce cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase through regulation of cell cycle-related proteins in MCF-7 cells. |
In vivo study | Ginsenoside Rg5 inhibits the mRNA expression of COX-2 via suppression of the DNA binding activities of NF-κB p65 in lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-stimulated BV2 microglial cells. Rg5 pretreated group mice show declined expression of NF-κB p65 and COX-2. In the group treated with low dose of Ginsenoside Rg5 (10 mg/kg), there is remarkable tubular damage and infiltration of inflammatory cells. However, at the higher dose of Ginsenoside Rg5 (20 mg/kg), tubules markedly appeare histologically normal and no inflammation and cast formation is observed in kidney tissues. |

Introduction | ginsenoside RG5 is extracted from distilled ginseng and can be used for content determination/identification/pharmacological experiments. |
biological activity | Ginsenoside Rg5 is the main component of red ginseng. Ginsenoside Rg5 blocks IGF-1 of binding to its receptor with an IC50 of approximately 90 nM. Ginsenoside Rg5 also inhibits the mRNA expression of COX-2 by inhibiting the DNA-binding activity of NF-κB p65. |
Use | for content determination/identification/pharmacological experiments, etc. Ginsenoside Rg5 is the main component extracted from steamed ginseng and has anti-inflammatory effect. |
