Cardenolide diversity and toxicity in tri-trophic interactions [PDF]
Natural selection is expected to drive evolution towards a small number of the most beneficial chemical defences. However, in the genus Asclepias there is a high diversity of cardenolides, a compound class that target the Na+/K+—ATPase enzyme.

Despite the central role of cardenolides in the classic milkweed-monarch- predator chemically-mediated multiple trophic level interaction, very few studies have actually demonstrated that cardenolides protect host plants against herbivores. We tested the

[[abstract]]Cardenolides are plant-derived toxic substances. Their cytotoxicity and the underlying mechanistic signaling axes have been extensively documented, but only a few anti-viral activities of cardenolides and the associated signaling pathways ...

A cardenolide intermediate: 15-Androstene-3 [beta], 14 [beta]-diol-17-one 3-Monoacetate.
It has been established "that both a 14 [beta] -hydroxyl group and a 17 [beta] —lactone ring are essential for a cardenolide to possess its specific heart stimulatory activity.
