Description:
Potent member of the ecdysteroid family. Ecdysone receptor (EcR) agonist. Analog of ecdysone with similar properties to ponasterone A (Prod. No. bs-75052C). Inducer of ecdysone-inducible gene expression systems in mammalian cells and transgenic animals. Induces apoptosis in cells transfected with wild-type Bax. Induces expression of beta-galactosidase. Stimulates Bcl-XL mRNA transcription and inhibits TRAIL- and hFasL-induced apoptosis in RKO cells. Insect steroid hormone involved in regulating metamorphosis, causing a response to G2 cell cycle arrest. Major molting hormone in some insects. Has protective effects in plants.
