PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Withaferin A is 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. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent and an apoptosis inducer. It is a delta-lactone, a 4-hydroxy steroid, an enone, an ergostanoid, a secondary alcohol, a withanolide, a 27-hydroxy steroid, a primary alcohol and an epoxy steroid.
