Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Deltonin, a steroidal saponin, isolated from Dioscorea zingiberensis, has antitumor activity; Deltonin inhibits ERK1/2 and AKT activation. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Deltonin is a triterpenoid. | [in vivo]
Deltonin (20 and 40 mg/kg, p.o.) reduces the tumor growth of 37.7% and 56.7%, and causes a 50-day survival rate of 60% and 50%, respectively, in mice. Deltonin also inhibits tumor angiogenesis in mice[1]. | [IC 50]
