Escin is a mixture of triterpene saponins derived from the seeds of the horse chestnut tree. It functions as a surfactant, reducing the surface tension of water and allowing it to penetrate and disperse substances more effectively. Escin′s mechanism of action involves interacting with cell membranes, disrupting their structure and function. This leads to increased permeability and fluidity of the membranes, affecting the transport of ions and molecules across the cell. Escin may inhibit enzymes involved in inflammation and edema, potentially modulating cellular signaling pathways. Its ability to interact with lipid bilayers and modulate cellular processes may be useful for studying membrane biology and cellular physiology in experimental applications.
