Description:Diosgenin is a naturally occurring steroidal saponin, which is predominantly sourced from plants such as wild yam (Dioscorea species). This compound is of significant interest due to its biochemical structure, which serves as a precursor in the synthesis of various steroid hormones. The mode of action of diosgenin involves its structural similarity to cholesterol-based molecules, enabling its conversion into pregnenolone and subsequently into a range of steroidal hormones through chemical or enzymatic transformations.
