Khasianine
Based on 3 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Khasianine is a steroidal glycoalkaloid. Khasianine alleviates psoriasis-like skin inflammation by inhibiting the TNF-α/NF-κB axis. Khasianine can downregulate the RhoA pathway and exhibits potential antimetastatic activity. Khasianine upregulates the expression of TNFR I and TNFR II without inducing apoptotic effects. Khasianine can be used in studies related to psoriasis, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and liver cancer.

In Vitro
Khasianine (3.2-50 nM; 24 h) dose-dependently inhibits TNF-α-induced IL-17A and IL-33 protein expression in HaCaT cells[1].
Khasianine (50 nM) blocks TNF-α-induced nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 in HaCaT cells[1].
Khasianine (50 nM) displaces NF-κB p65 from the promoter regions of IL-17A and IL-33, thereby inhibiting TNF-α-induced transactivation of these cytokines in HaCaT cells[1].
Khasianine (30-60 μg/mL) does not induce apoptotic cell death (characterized by a sub-G1 peak) in human hepatocellular carcinoma Hep3B cells even at concentrations as high as 60 μg/mL[3].
Khasianine (up to 20 μg/mL; 16 h) exhibits extremely low cytotoxicity against human hepatocellular carcinoma Hep3B cells, with an IC50 greater than 20 μg/mL[3].
Khasianine (50 μg/mL; 48 h) regulates the protein expression of glucose-sensitive LSBP in human Suit2-007 pancreatic cancer cells, with the most significant down-regulation observed in lactose-sensitive LSBP[2].
