Ginsenoside Rg5 is a ginsenoside originally isolated from P. ginseng that has diverse biological activities, including anticancer, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and antioxidant properties.{39967,39968,39969} It inhibits the growth of HeLa and MS751 cervical cancer cells (IC50s = ~2.5-10 μM) and induces apoptosis in a concentration-dependent manner.{39967} Ginsenoside Rg5 (5 and 10 μM) inhibits LPS-induced increases in IL-1β, TNF-α, COX-2, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) protein levels in murine alveolar macrophages.{39968} It also inhibits LPS-induced increases in the number of neutrophils and protein levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, COX-2, and iNOS in lung in a mouse model of acute lung inflammation when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg. In a rat model of Alzheimer’s disease induced by streptozotocin (STZ; Item No. 13104), ginsenoside Rg5 blocks STZ-induced increases in amyloid-β accumulation in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex and prevents STZ-induced decreases in step through latency time in a passive avoidance foot-shock test in a dose-dependent manner.{39969}
