Bacoside A3

Bacoside A3 is a triterpenoid saponin first isolated from B. monniera. Bacoside A3 inhibits the ATP-binding cassette transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp), decreasing efflux 4-fold compared with control in vitro. An extract containing bacoside A3 and bacopaside II (4 and 1.3 µg/mg extract, respectively) administered for eight days at a dose of 10-30 mg/kg reduces opioid withdrawal-induced depression in mice using the forced swim test. Bacoside A3 also has antioxidant properties following liver and kidney damage induced by street heroin in rats.Formal Name: (3beta,16beta,23R)-16,23:16,30-diepoxy-20-hydroxydammar-24-en-3-yl O-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1->2)-O-[beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1->3)]-beta-D-glucopyranoside.
