Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 6902-77-8 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Genipin is an active aglycone derived from an iridoid glycoside called geniposide, which is found in the fruit of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis. Genipin is a hydrolytic product of geniposide. Genipin has been used in traditional Chinese medicine. Genipin is
2. Genipin is an inhibitor of uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2).
3. Genipin has been used:in chemosensitivity assayin the preparation of recombinant human (rh)-odontogenic ameloblast-associated protein (ODAM) -impregnated collagen gel and in vitro mineralization assayin genipin gel preparation
General Description
Genipin is a natural cross linking agent, which is extracted from gardenia fruit. It prevents lipid peroxidation and production of nitric oxide. Genipin protects the hippocampal neurons from the toxicity of Alzheimer′s amyloid β protein. It has anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenesis effects. Genipin is involved in drug delivery system.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Genipin stimulates insulin secretion in UCP2-dependent manner (Uncoupling protein 2). Genipin is a protein, collagen, gelatin, and chitosan cross-linker.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 6902-77-8 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 6,9,0 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 6902-77:
(6*6)+(5*9)+(4*0)+(3*2)+(2*7)+(1*7)=108
108 % 10 = 8
So 6902-77-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
