Product Description
General description：
Atractylenolide III is a biologically active sesquiterpene compound, extracted from the roots of Atractylodes macrocephala Koidzumi.
Application：
Atractylenolide III has been used to examine its effects on the energy metabolism in the skeletal muscles of mouse.
Atractylenolide III, a sesquiterpenoid, is a phytochemical that may be used to study its anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenesis activities. Atractylenolide III may be used and studied as an inhibitor of aromatases and inducer of apoptosis. Atractylenolide III may be used to study its sonic hedgehog pathway dependent mechanism of action as an inducer of chondrogenic differentiation. Atractylenolide III may be used as a reference material in assays to detect its presence in plant root extracts and biological milieu such as plasma.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as eudesmanolides, secoeudesmanolides, and derivatives. These are terpenoids with a structure based on the eudesmanolide (a 3,5a,9-trimethyl-naphtho[1,2-b]furan-2-one derivative) or secoeudesmanolide (a 3,6-dimethyl-5-(pentan-2-yl)-1-benzofuran-2-one derivative) skeleton.
