    Product Description

    Araloside A is a triterpenoid saponin that has been found in A. taibaiensis and has anti-inflammatory and gastroprotective effects.1,2 It increases apoptosis of and decreases production of IL-1β and IL-6 in human MH7A rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes when used at concentrations ranging from 4 to 16 µM.1 Araloside A (50 and 100 mg/kg) reduces gastric acid secretion and lesion size in rat models of hydrochloric acid and ethanol-, aspirin-, water immersion stress-, or pyloric ligation-induced ulcer formation.2

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
