Molecular dynamics simulations and experimental studies reveal differential permeability of withaferin-A and withanone across the model cell membrane

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Poor bioavailability due to the inability to cross the cell membrane is one of the major reasons for the failure of a drug in clinical trials. We have used molecular dynamics simulations to predict the membrane permeability of natural drugs—withanolides (

Development of withaferin A analogs as probes of angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesBioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2006
The natural product withaferin A (WFA) is a potent angiogenesis inhibitor and it targets the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in vascular endothelial cells. We generated a biotinylated affinity analog WFA-LC(2)B for use as a probe to study angiogenesis.

An Adaptogen: Withaferin A Ameliorates in Vitro and in Vivo Pulmonary Fibrosis by Modulating the Interplay of Fibrotic, Matricelluar Proteins, and Cytokines

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is chronic lung disease with only two FDA approved clinically available drugs, with limited safety profile. Inadequate therapy motivated us to explore the effect of vimentin inhibitor Withaferin A, as an anti-fibrotic agent ...

Evaluation of the geroprotective effects of withaferin A in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesAging, 2021
Withanolides are a class of compounds usually found in plant extracts which are an attractive geroprotective drug design starting point. We evaluated the geroprotective properties of Withaferin A (WA) in vivo using the Drosophila model. Flies were supplemented by nutrient medium with WA (at a concentration of 1, 10, or 100 μM dissolved in ethanol) for ...
