Sarsasapogenin Usage And Synthesis

Description

Smilagengenin is a steroidal saponin with antitumor activity, which is mainly used in refreshing beverages, foaming sweets, mixed wine, etc.

Uses

Sarsasapogenin has cytotoxic properties and is used to develop lead structures for cancer drugs. Sarsasapogenin is also identified to effectively lower the production of Aβ amyloids and stimulate neurite ogrowth in neuronal cell cultures.

Definition

ChEBI: (25S)-5beta-spirostan-3beta-ol is a sapogenin.
