Biological Activity

Yamogenin is a natural steroidal sapogenin derived from fenugreek that acts as an inhibitor of hepatic lipid accumulation. It suppresses the expression of genes involved in fatty acid synthesis within hepatocytes, downregulating lipogenic pathways. This inhibition reduces intracellular triglyceride storage and attenuates hepatic lipid buildup, serving as a key regulator of metabolic signaling and lipid homeostasis in liver cells.

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).
