Streptocaulon juventas (Lour.) Merr. (SJ) is a herbal medicine can promote wound healing. Cardiac glycosides, especially periplogenin, digitoxigenin, and their glycosides were the main constituents of SJ. We aim to establish a method for the simultaneous determination of periplogenin and digitoxigenin in SJ and evaluate the wound healing activities of these two components. UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS was used for the determination of periplogenin and digitoxigenin. Meanwhile, rats were subjected to full-thickness skin resection on the back to investigate the wound healing effects of periplogenin and digitoxigenin. The content of periplogenin and digitoxigenin in 13 batches of SJ extracts ranged from 43.26 to 97.15 μg/g and 18.04 to 55.55 μg/g, respectively. Periplogenin and digitoxigenin significantly increased the rate of wound healing in rats, increased the content of hydroxyproline in wound tissue, and improved the pathological state of wound skin tissue.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that affects joints, causing inflammation, synovitis, and erosion of cartilage and bone. Periplogenin is an active ingredient in the anti-rheumatic and anti-inflammatory herb, cortex periplocae. We conducted a study using a CIA model and an in vitro model of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) induced by Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNF-α) stimulation.

A sensitive and specific ultra-performance liquid chromatographic-tandem mass spectrometric method was developed and validated to simultaneously determine periplocin, periplocymarin (PM), periplogenin (PG), periplocoside M (PSM) and periplocoside N (PSN) in rat plasma. Acetonitrile was employed to precipitate plasma with appropriate sensitivity and acceptable matrix effects. Chromatographic separation was performed using a Waters HSS T3 column with a gradient elution using water and acetonitrile both containing 0.

The mortality rate of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is higher than that of other cancers worldwide owing to a lack of therapeutic targets and related drugs. This study aimed to find new drugs by targeting an efficacious therapeutic target in ESCC patients. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is hyperactive in ESCC.

Periplogenin is a compound extracted from cortex periplocae. In the monomers' screening for inhibiting nasopharyngeal carcinoma, we found that periplogenin can inhibit nasopharyngeal carcinoma; however, its mechanism is still unclear. In this study, the chemical structure of periplogenin was uploaded to the PubChem database in order to obtain the target of periplogenin.
