Endogenous Bufadienolides, Fibrosis and Preeclampsia
Cardiology Research and Practice, 2019 Frequency of preeclampsia has no tendency to decrease, and it still takes the leading position in the structure of maternal mortality and morbidity worldwide. In this review, we present the “fibrotic concept” of the etiology and pathogenesis of preeclampsia which involves system consisting of Na/K-ATPase and its endogenous ligands including ...

Rhinovirus inhibition by bufadienolides.
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1988 An evaluation of thirty-four bufadienolides and two related cardenolides against a series of rhinoviruses in vitro has been completed. Most of the bufadienolides were found to display some inhibitory activity. Scillarenin and 3-O-[N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)hydrazido]succinylbufalin were found to be the most active with chemotherapeutic indices of 32 and ...
