Molecular Formula | C30H48O |
Molar Mass | 424.7 |
Density | 1.01±0.1 g/cm3(Predicted) |
Melting Point | 241-243 °C |
Boling Point | 488.3±44.0 °C(Predicted) |
Solubility | Soluble in methanol, ethanol, DMSO and other organic solvents |
Appearance | White crystalline powder |
Storage Condition | 2-8℃ |
Physical and Chemical Properties | White crystalline powder, soluble in methanol, ethanol, DMSO and other organic solvents, derived from light bamboo leaves, dandelion. |
In vivo study | Taraxerone significantly lowers the plasma alcohol and acetaldehyde concentrations in mice. Compare to the control group, the ADH and ALDH expressions in the liver tissues are abruptly increased in the taraxerone-treated groups after ethanol exposure. Taraxerone prevents catalase, superoxide dismutase, and reduces glutathione concentrations from the decrease induced by ethanol administration. |
HS Code | 29143990 |
biological activity | Taraxerone are isolated from sedum. Taraxerone enhanced the activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) with EC50 values of 512.42 μM and 500.16 μM respectively. |
target | EC50: 512.42 μM (ADH); 500.16 μM (ALDH) |
