Description

zhankuic acid A: isolated from Antrodia cinnamomea; structure in first source [Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), National Library of Medicine, extracted Dec-2023]

zhankuic acid A : A steroid acid that is ergosta-8,24(28)-dien-26-oic acid substituted by a methyl group at position 4 and oxo groups at positions 3, 7 and 11 (the 4alpha,5alpha stereoisomer). Isolated from Antrodia cinnamomea and Antrodia camphorata, it exhibits cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory activity.
