Product Information

• Name: 3-Deoxy-3-oxo-20(S)-protopanaxatriol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 3-Deoxy-3-oxo-20(S)-protopanaxatriol is a compound that has been shown to have cardioprotective effects in vitro. This compound inhibits the production of malondialdehyde (MDA), an end product of lipid peroxidation, and increases the glutathione content of rat heart tissue. 3-Deoxy-3-oxo-20(S)-protopanaxatriol also protects against ischemic injury by lowering creatine kinase levels and preserving the myocardium during reperfusion. It has been shown to inhibit oxidative stress and reduce tissue damage in rats with induced myocardial infarction. 3-Deoxy-3-oxo-20(S)-protopanaxatriol is orally active, but must be injected for pharmacological studies due to its high molecular weight. This molecule has also been shown to have antioxidant properties in vitro, which may be due to its ability to
