Long Description:
Chemical. CAS: 38778-30-2. Formula: C27H44O8. MW: 496.6. Isolated from Ipomoea hederacea seeds. Potent member of the ecdysteroid family. Ecdysone receptor (EcR) agonist. Analog of ecdysone with similar properties to ponasterone A (Prod. No. AG-CN2-0053 http://www.adipogen.com/ag-cn2-0053/ponasterone-a.html ). Inducer of ecdysone-inducible gene expression systems in mammalian cells and transgenic animals. Induces apoptosis in cells transfected with wild-type Bax. Induces expression of beta-galactosidase. Stimulates Bcl-XL mRNA transcription and inhibits TRAIL- and hFasL-induced apoptosis in RKO cells. Insect steroid hormone involved in regulating metamorphosis, causing a response to G2 cell cycle arrest. Major molting hormone in some insects. Has protective effects in plants.
