Cytotoxic screening and antibacterial activity of Withaferin A

Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A, 2022
Cancer and bacterial infections are among the leading causes of death worldwide. Plant-derived bioactive compounds constitute promising alternatives for development of new therapeutics. This study aimed at evaluating the biological activity of Withaferin A using 6 tumor cell lines: A549 (lung cancer), U87MG (glioblastoma), SH-SY5Y (neuroblastoma), B16 ...

Microbiological and chemical dehydrogenation of withaferin A

Folia Microbiologica, 1987
Arthrobacter simplex dehydrogenated withaferin A to 4-dehydrowithaferin A but it was not able to dehydrogenate this substrate in position 27. 27-Dehydrowithaferin A was prepared chemically using pyridinium chlorochromate. Whereas 4-dehydrowithaferin A surpassed in its effect on leukemic (388 cells the original compound and all its derivates synthesized

The effect of withaferin A on plant cells

European Journal of Cancer (1965), 1971
Abstract Withaferin A in a concentration of 0·01-0·5% in water inhibited the growth of Allium cepa roots. Furthermore, withaferin A induced c-tumor formation and lateral root formation on treated roots. Microscopical examination of withaferin A-treated root tip cells showed a clear arrest at metaphase as soon as 2 hr after treatment.
