Biological Activity

Timosaponin A3 is a natural steroidal saponin isolated from Anemarrhena asphodeloides with potent antineoplastic and neuroprotective activities. It modulates key cellular signaling networks, inducing apoptosis and autophagy in various cancer cell lines. Furthermore, Timosaponin A3 suppresses pro-inflammatory signaling pathways and cell proliferation, contributing to enhanced learning and memory functions in preclinical models.

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
