---|---|---|
2,3-dihydro-3beta-methoxy withaferin A | A withanolide that is 2,3-dihydrowithaferin A substituted by a beta-methoxy group at position 3. It has been isolated from the aerial parts of Physalis longifolia. | 2,3-dihydro-3beta-methoxy withaferin A |
2,3-dihydro-3beta-O-sulfate withaferin A | A withanolide that is 2,3-dihydrowithaferin A substituted by a sulfoxy group at position 3. Isolated from Physalis longifolia, it exhibits antineoplastic activity. | 2,3-dihydro-3beta-O-sulfate withaferin A |
2,3-dihydrowithaferin A | A withanolide that is the 2,3-dihydro derivative of withaferin A. It has been isolated from the aerial parts of Physalis longifolia. | 2,3-dihydrowithaferin A |
24,25-epoxycholesterol | A 3beta-hydroxy-Delta(5)-steroid that is desmosterol in which the double bond at position 24-25 has been oxidised to the corresponding epoxide (the 24S diastereoisomer). It is an oxysterol agonist of the liver X receptor. | 24(S),25-epoxycholesterol |
bufogenin | A steroid lactone of Chan su (toad venom), a Chinese medicine obtained from the skin venom gland of toads. A specific Na/K-ATPase protein inhibitor, it is used as a cardiotonic and central nervous system (CNS) respiratory agent, an analgesic and anesthetic, and as a remedy for ulcers. | bufogenin |
cholesterol alpha-oxide | 5,6alpha-epoxy-5alpha-cholestan-3beta-ol | |
eplerenone | eplerenone | |
marinobufagenin | A cardiotonic steroid secreted by the toad Bufo rubescens and other related species such as Bufo marinus. An endogenous Na/K-ATPase inhibitor, it is a vasoconstrictor with effects similar to digitalis. | marinobufagenin |
physalin f | A physalin with antimalarial and antitumour activities isolated from Physalis angulata. | physalin F |
trilostane | An epoxy steroid that is 3,17beta-dihydroxy-5alpha-androst-2-ene-2-carbonitrile in which the oxygen of the epoxy group is joined to the 4alpha and 5 alpha positions. | trilostane |
tubocapsanolide a | A withanolide that is 5beta,6beta:16alpha,17alpha-diepoxywitha-2,24-dienolide substituted by a hydroxy group at position 4 and an oxo group at position 1. Isolated from Tubocapsicum anomalum, it exhibits cytotoxic activity. | tubocapsanolide A |
withaferin a | A withanolide that is 5,6:22,26-diepoxyergosta-2,24-diene-1,26-dione substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 4 and 27 (the 4beta,5beta,6beta,22R stereoisomer). Isolated from Physalis longifolia, it exhibits cytotoxic activity. | withaferin A |
withanolide d | A withanolide that is 5,6:22,26-diepoxyergosta-2,24-diene-1,26-dione substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 4 and 22 (the 4beta,5beta,6beta,22R stereoisomer). Isolated from Tubocapsicum anomalum and Withania somnifera, it exhibits cytotoxic activity. | withanolide D |
