Biochem/physiol Actions

Akebia saponin D (ASD) is a bioactive triterpenoid saponin isolated from the rhizome of Dipsacus asper Wall that is used as an anti-osteoporosis drug. Akebia saponin D exhibits therapeutic effects in number of disease models including cancer, Alzheimer′s disease, cardiovascular disease, and bone fractures. Akebia saponin D protects against nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) liver damage in mice model of NAFLD. ASD decreases hepatic steatosis and heptocyte apoptosis through autophagy modulation. Akebia saponin D prevents oleic acid induced lipid droplets accumulation and increases autophagic flux BRL cells.
