Beschreibung

Cucurbitacin A is a polyphenolic secondary metabolite that has been shown to have a variety of biological activities. It has been shown to inhibit HIV-1 replication and induce apoptosis in cancer cells. Cucurbitacin A also inhibits the growth of human prostate cancer cells by inhibiting the expression of proteins involved in cell proliferation, such as cyclin D1 and p27. Cucurbitacin A also has potent anticancer activity against a broad range of cancer cells including breast, lung, colon, leukemia, melanoma, and ovarian cancers. Moreover, cucurbitacin A shows promise for the treatment of heart disease because it has been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation. The chemical stability and chemical composition make cucurbitacin A an attractive candidate for use as a pharmaceutical preparation.
