Pro-apoptotic and cytostatic activity of naturally occurring cardenolides
Cardenoliddes are steroid glycosides which are known to exert cardiotonic effects by inhibiting the Na+/K+-ATPase. Several of these compds. have been shown also to possess anti-tumor potential.

The Effect of Ultra-Violet Irradiation on Cardenolides
Solutions of digoxin, digoxigenin and digitoxigenin in ethanol were subjected to ultra-violet irradiation in the absence of oxygen. Chromatographic analysis showed that the starting material was transformed into several other compounds some of which may ...

THEVETOSIDE AND DIGITOXIGENIN, CARDENOLIDES FROM 2 SPECIES OF THEVETIA (APOCYNACEAE)
In a comparative analysis of the cardenolides of two Thevetia species, T. ovata Cav. and T thevetioides HBK, the amount of thevetoside in the seeds, and its acetate, was determined, as well as the yield of digitoxigenin obtained from these monoglycosides.

. Theory has long predicted allocation patterns for plant defense against herbivory, but only recently have both above-and belowground plant defenses been considered simultaneously. Milkweeds in the genus Asclepias are a classic chemically defended clade
