Target

STAT3

In Vitro In 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 Vivo Diosgenin 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].
