We have found that ginsenoside Rc and Re induce c-fos in MCF-7 human breast carcinoma cells at both the mRNA and protein levels. However, neither ginsenoside activated the expression of reporter gene under the control of AP-1/TPA response elements. We

Ginsenosides Rb2, Rc and Rg1 suppressed corticotropin-induced, dibutyryl cyclic AMP-induced and epinephrine-induced lipolysis with the relative potencies Rb2 greater than Rc greater than Rg1. The inhibition of corticotropin-induced lipolysis by ginsenoside Rg1 could not be overcome by increasing the dose

Ginsenoside Rc (GRc) is a potential pharmacologically active ingredient isolated from ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer, Araliaceae). A simple, rapid and sensitive method for determination of GRc in rat plasma was developed based on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The

A method has been devised for the chromatographic resolution of glucosidic compounds, ginseng saponins, on polyethersulphone (PES) membrane. The method results in good resolution and quantitative immunoassay for ginsenoside Rb1 (G-Rb1), G-Rc, and G-Rd in crude extracts of various ginsengs.

In the present study, we have investigated the effects of centrally administered ginsenoside Rc and Rg1 on the modulation of the NMDA receptor and GABA(A)receptor binding in rat brain. The NMDA receptor binding was analysed by quantitative autoradiography using [(3)H]MK-801
