Hecogenin is a steroid saponin isolated from Agave sisalana and is a selective inhibitor of human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases. Hecogenin has a wide spectrum of pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antifungal and gastroprotective effects[1].
Hecogenin (3.1-90 mg/kg; oral administration; for 15 hours; male Swiss mice) acutely administered, before ethanol, exhibits a potent gastroprotective effect. The Hecogenin pretreatment normalizes GSH levels and significantly reduces lipid peroxidation and nitrite levels in the stomach, as evaluated by the ethanol-induced gastric lesion model. Hecogenin also decreases MPO release and significantly protects the gastric mucosa[1]. Animal Model: Male Swiss mice (20-30 g) with ethanol[1]
