3β-Hydroxy-ursadien-(12.18)-saeure-(28) 3β-hydroxy-ursadien-(12.18)-oic acid-(28) Vanguerolsaeure (2R,4aS,6aS,6bR,8aR,10S,12aR,12bR)-10-Hydroxy-1,2,6a,6b,9,9,12a-heptamethyl-3,4,5,6,6a,6b,7,8,8a,9,10,11,12,12a,12b,13-hexadecahydro-2H-picene-4a-carboxylic acid |
Description | Randialic acid B, a triterpenoid compound, is a formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) antagonist. Randialic acid B blocks FPR1 in human neutrophils and attenuates psoriasis-like inflammation in vivo[1]. |

In Vitro | Randialic acid B (0.1-3 μM; for 5 min) selectively inhibits reactive oxygen species production, elastase release, and CD11b expression in human neutrophils activated by FPR1. Randialic acid B inhibits the binding of N-formyl peptide to FPR1 in human neutrophils, neutrophil-like THP-1 cells, and hFPR1-transfected HEK293 cells, indicating FPR1 antagonism[1]. Randialic acid B acts competitively for its binding to the FPR1 receptor. The FPR1-downstream signaling such as Ca2+ mobilisation and activation of Akt and MAPKs is also competitively inhibited[1]. Randialic acid B shows significant cell-protective effects against H2O2-induced H9c2 cardiomyocyte injury[2]. |
In Vivo | Randialic acid B (10 mg/kg; i.v.; every other day; for 5 days) significantly reduces Imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like symptom, including epidermal hyperplasia, desquamation with scaling, neutrophil skin infiltration, and transepidermal water loss[1]. Animal Model: BALB/c white female mice (20 g weight; 7-week-old) treated with Imiquimod[1] Dosage: 10 mg/kg Administration: i.v.; every other day; for 5 days Result: Significantly reduced Imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like symptoms. |
