Escin Ib inhibits gastric emptying, at least in part, mediated by capsaicin-sensitive sensory nerves, to stimulate the synthesis and/or release of dopamine, to act through central dopamine2 receptor, which in turn causes the release of PGs.
Escin IIB has positive effects on acute inflammation in animals, it can inhibit the induced by serotonin in rats, the hind paw edema induced by carrageenin, and the scratching behavior induced by compound 48/80 in mice.
Escin IA (Escin IA;Aescin IA) is a triterpene saponin isolated from horse chestnut, which inhibits HIV-1 protease with IC50 values of 35 μM. Escin IA has anti-TNBC metastasis activity, and its action mechanisms involved inhibition of epithelial-mesenchymal transition process by down-regulating LOXL2 expression[1][2].
