Description and Uses
Erythrodiol is a triterpene that has been found in olive oil and has diverse biological activities. It induces relaxation of isolated rat aortic rings precontracted with phenylephrine (EC50 = 3.38 μM). Erythrodiol inhibits the growth of HT-29 adenocarcinoma cells (EC50 = 48.8 μM). It induces production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis in MCF-7 cells when used at a concentration of 100 μM. Topical administration of erythrodiol (0.5 mg/ear) reduces ear edema and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA; ) in mice.
It is an essential reagent in the synthesis of aminopropoxytriterpenoids that have anticancer activity. 3β-Erythrodiol has pharmacological property as a vasodilatory agent. It may have interesting therapeutic potential as a new vasodilator drug, for protecting the cardiovascular system.
