gutathione s-transferase

Coniferyl ferulate is a strong inhibitor of glutathione S-transferase (GST) isolated from Radix Angelicae sinensis. It shows strong inhibition of human placental GST (IC50: 0.3 μM). It also reverses multidrug resistance and downregulates P-glycoprotein.

α-Angelica lactone has cardiotonic activity, may exert their effects by providing an increased contraction-dependent calcium pool to be released upon systolic depolarization.

Curzerene, a sesquiterpene compound derived from the rhizome of Curculigo orchioides Gaertn, possesses potent anti-cancer properties. It is known to induce apoptosis in cells[1] and also suppress the expression of glutathione S-transferase A1 (GSTA1) mRNA and protein.

Seneciphylline, one of the hepatotoxic pyrolizidine alkaloids, has mutagenic activity in Drosophila and their transfer into rat milk.Seneciphylline can significantly increased the activities of epoxide hydrase and glutathione-S-transferase but cause reduc
