| Description |
Steppogenin is a potent inhibitor of HIF-1α and DLL4, with IC50 values of 0.56 and 8.46 μM, respectively. Steppogenin can be sued for the research of angiogenic diseases, such as those involving solid tumors[1].

Steppogenin (0-10 μM, 24 h) 以剂量依赖性方式抑制 HEK293T 细胞缺氧条件下 HIF-1α 的转录活性和血管内皮细胞 (ECs) 中 VEGF 诱导的 DLL4 表达[1]。 Steppogenin (0-3 μM，6 h) 在缺氧条件下抑制 HIF-1α 靶基因（VEGF、GLUT1、CXCR4 和 CA9）的 mRNA 表达[1]。 Steppogenin (0-3 μM，16 h) 抑制 HIF-1α 蛋白水平，并抑制 VEGF、CXCR4 和 CA9 的蛋白水平[1]。 Steppogenin (0-3 μM，24 h) 抑制缺氧诱导的血管 EC 增殖和迁移以及 VEGF 诱导的 EC 球体发芽[1]。 RT-PCR[1] Cell Line: A549 cells Concentration: 0, 0.3, 1, 3 μM Incubation Time: 6 h Result: Suppressed the mRNA expression of HIF-1α target genes (VEGF, GLUT1, CXCR4, and CA9) under hypoxic conditions. Western Blot Analysis[1] Cell Line: HEK293T, A549, ARPE19 cells Concentration: 0, 0.3, 1, 3 μM Incubation Time: 16 h Result: Significantly suppressed HIF-1α protein levels in a dose-dependent manner. reduced nuclear expression of HIF-1α under hypoxic conditions. Inhibited protein levels of VEGF, CXCR4, and CA9 compared with the levels detected in the vehicle control group. Suppresseed VEGF-induced DLL4 protein expression.
