    Target

    STAT3

    In VitroIn MC65 cells, a cellular AD model, diosgenin exhibited weak protective abilities at 1 μM, may represent a good candidate as a steroidal moiety in our bivalent compounds against AD pathology[1]. Diosgenin inhibits the constitutive activation of STAT3 in C3A cells in a dose-dependent manner, with maximum inhibition occurring at around 100 μM[2].
    In VivoDiosgenin treatment significantly reduces fasted and refed blood glucose level in HF dietfed mice. Diosgenin treatment significantly reduces blood glucose level in IPGTT test, compared with that of HF diet-fed mice[3].
