Application

Ginsenoside Rg3 has been used to investigate its modulatory effects on delayed rectifier potassium current (IKr) channels in long QT syndrome (LQTS)2-human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC-CMs).
Ginsenoside Rg3 may be used in cell signaling studies.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ginsenoside Rg3 is a natural product isolated from Panax ginseng. Similar to other ginsenosides it exhibits cardio protective effects. Ginsenoside Rg3 enhances cardiac, hERG (IKr) and KCNQ (Iks), channel currents by interaction with the channel pore entryway. It also inhibits the palmitate-induced apoptosis of MIN6N8 mouse insulinoma beta-cells through modulating p44/42 MAPK activation. Ginsenoside Rg3 increases the level of the transcription factor Nrf2 and induces the mRNA levels of multidrug resistance-associated protein (Mrp) 1 and Mrp3. Rg3 modulate neuroinflammation by attenuating the activation of microglia in response to systemic LPS treatment. It activates AMPK in HepG2 cells and reduces the lipid accumulation thereby decreasing the risk of cardiovascular disease due to dyslipidemia.
