β-stigmasterol

Glucosyl stigmasterol is a glycosylated sterol.

Stigmasterol (Stigmasterin) is a phytosterol with major functions in the maintenance of cell membrane structure and physiology. Stigmasterol lowers cholesterol levels and has anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory effects.

Stigmasterol (Standard) is a reference standard for research and analysis in studies involving Stigmasterol. Stigmasterol (Stigmasterin) is a phytosterol with major functions in the maintenance of cell membrane structure and physiology. Stigmasterol lowers cholesterol levels and has anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory effects.

Stigmasterol glucoside is a natural sterol and 5α-reductase inhibitor (IC50=27.2 µM) with potential antioxidant and antitumor properties.

Beta-Sitosterol (SKF 14463) has recently been shown to induce G2/M arrest, endoreduplication, and apoptosis through the Bcl-2 and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways. Beta-Sitosterol (SKF 14463) , a main dietary phytosterol found in plants, may have the potential for prevention and therapy for human cancer. Although the exact mechanism of action of Beta-Sitosterol (SKF 14463) is unknown, it may be related to cholesterol metabolism or anti-inflammatory effects (via interference with prostaglandin metabolism). Beta-Sitosterol (SKF 14463) induces apoptosis and activates key caspases in MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells.

7alpha-Hydroxystigmasterol is a natural product of Xanthium, Asteraceae. The catalog number is TN3254 and the CAS number is 64998-19-2. 7alpha-Hydroxystigmasterol can be used as a reference standard.
