Quillaic acid is a triterpene saponin that has been found in Q. saponaria bark and has diverse biological activities. It is cytotoxic to SNU-1 and KATO III gastric cancer cells (IC50s = 13.6 and 67 µM, respectively). Quillaic acid induces hot plate analgesia in mice (ED50 = 20.7 mg/kg). It reduces ear edema induced by arachidonic acid (Item Nos. 90010 | 90010.1 | 10006607) or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA; Item No. 10008014) in mice when administered topically at doses of 0.7 and 1.6 mg/ear, respectively.
