Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Caudatin is a C-21 steroid that has been found in C. auriculatum and has anticancer activity. It is cytotoxic to SMMC-7721, MCF-7, and HeLa cells (IC50s = 24.95, 65.82, and 247.54 µM, respectively). Caudatin (50-300 µM) induces apoptosis in and inhibits mammosphere formation by MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells, as well as decreases the number of cancer stem cells (CSCs) in the MDA-MB-231 cell population. In vivo, caudatin (10 mg/kg) reduces tumor volume in an MDA-MB-231 mouse xenograft model.
