WITHAFERIN A Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Description
Withaferin A (5119-48-2) displays potent antiangiogenesis activity inhibiting endothelial cell sprouting in vitro(IC50= 12 nM) andin vivo.1Potently inhibits NF-κB activation by preventing TNFα-induced activation of IKKβ.2Covalently binds to the intermediate filament protein, vimentin3inducing its disassembly and serine 56 phosphorylation4. Inhibits reactive gliosis and blocks TNFα-mediated neuronal apoptosis inin vivomodels.5
Chemical Properties
Solid
Uses
Withaferin A is a promising anticancer constituent of Ayurvedic medicinal plant Withania somnifera. Withaferin A showed potent cytotoxicity against human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (JMAR and MDA-1986). Withaferin A has recently been found to be a leptin sensitizer that can reduce the weight in obese mice fed in a high-fat diet (see C249500).
Definition
ChEBI: 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 Phys lis longifolia, it exhibits cytotoxic activity.
Biological Activity
Steroid lactone that displays anti-inflammatory, antitumor and antiangiogenic activity. Inhibits endothelial cells (HUVEC) spouting in vitro (IC 50 = 12 nM) and in vivo . Prevents NF- κ B activation by inhibiting activation of IKK β . Also inhibits chymotrypsin-like activity of the 20S proteasome.
