Ergotoxine

Description:
Ergotoxine, with the CAS number 8006-25-5, is a complex alkaloid derived from the ergot fungus, specifically from the species Claviceps purpurea. This substance is part of a group of compounds known as ergot alkaloids, which are known for their pharmacological effects on the central nervous system and vascular system. Ergotoxine exhibits vasoconstrictive properties and can influence neurotransmitter activity, particularly affecting serotonin and dopamine pathways. It is often studied for its potential therapeutic applications, including its use in treating conditions such as migraines and certain types of headaches. However, it also has a history of toxicity, particularly in cases of ergotism, which can occur from consuming contaminated grains. The compound is typically found in a crystalline form and is soluble in organic solvents. Due to its potent biological effects, ergotoxine must be handled with care in laboratory and clinical settings, and its use is regulated in many countries.

  • Ergtoxin-1

    Controlled Product
    CAS:
    Ergtoxin-1 is a medicinal protein inhibitor that has shown potential in the treatment of cancer. It is an analog of a Chinese scorpion toxin and has been found to inhibit the activity of certain kinases that are involved in tumor growth and apoptosis. Ergtoxin-1 has been shown to be effective against various types of cancer cells, including human breast, prostate, and lung cancers. It works by blocking the activity of specific kinases that are involved in cell signaling pathways that promote cell survival and proliferation. This inhibition induces apoptosis or programmed cell death in cancer cells while sparing healthy cells. Ergtoxin-1 is a promising anticancer agent with significant potential for further development as a therapeutic agent for cancer treatment.
