| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Methylprotodioscin is a steroidal saponin compound found in a number of plant species. It is known to be the active component of the herbal aphrodisiac plant Tribulus terrestris. It has also shown to produce significant increases in the levels of the hormonal levels in animal studies. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Methylprotodioscin is a steroid saponin. | [Biological Activity]
Methyl protodioscin is a saponin isolated from medical plant Dioscoreaceae th at exhibit anticancer properties. It appears th at Methyl protodioscin inhibits proliferation and promoted apoptosis of pancreatic cancer through suppression of glycolysis. Methyl protodioscin protects r at brain from I/R injury through down-regulation Mul1 (Mitochondrial E3 ubiquitin ligase 1) and elevation of SOD2 (superoxide dismutase 2) protein levels. |
