Description and Uses
Withaferin A (5119-48-2) displays potent antiangiogenesis activity inhibiting endothelial cell sprouting in vitro(IC50= 12 nM) andin vivo.1Potently inhibits NF-κB activation by preventing TNFα-induced activation of IKKβ.2Covalently binds to the intermediate filament protein, vimentin3inducing its disassembly and serine 56 phosphorylation4. Inhibits reactive gliosis and blocks TNFα-mediated neuronal apoptosis inin vivomodels.5
Withaferin A is a promising anticancer constituent of Ayurvedic medicinal plant Withania somnifera. Withaferin A showed potent cytotoxicity against human head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (JMAR and MDA-1986). Withaferin A has recently been found to be a leptin sensitizer that can reduce the weight in obese mice fed in a high-fat diet (see C249500).
