    Product Description

    Specneuzhenide is an iridoid glycoside originally isolated from L. lucidum with diverse biological activities.1,2,3,4 It reduces neurotoxicity induced by 6-OHDA (Item No. 25330) in SH-SY5Y cells by 49.2% when used at a concentration of 10 μM.1 Specneuzhenide (25, 50, and 100 μM) reduces high glucose-induced levels of cleaved caspase-3 protein and apoptosis in mouse glomerular mesangial cells.2 It increases cell viability and alkaline phosphatase activity in osteoblastic UMR-106 cells.3 Specneuzhenide inhibits hypoxia-induced VEGFA secretion, VEGFA and prolyl hydroxylase 2 (PHD-2) mRNA expression, and protein levels of VEGFA, HIF-1α, and PHD-2 in human acute retinal pigment epithelial-19 (ARPE-19) cells.4 In vivo, specneuzhenide (5 and 10 mg/kg) prevents retinal neovascularization in a rat model of oxygen-induced retinopathy.
