Digitoxigenin  (Synonyms: Cerberigenin; Echujetin)

Cat. No.: HY-B2151 Purity: 99.91%
SDS COA Handling Instructions

Digitoxigenin is a steroid derivative commonly found in various plants, especially the foxglove plant (Digitalis purpurea). Digitoxigenin has unique chemical properties that make it an important precursor for the synthesis of cardiac glycosides, a group of drugs used to improve heart failure and certain types of arrhythmias. It works by inhibiting the sodium potassium ATPase pump, thereby increasing the force and efficiency of cardiac contractions.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
