Biological Activity

[Description]:

1,2-Dihydrotanshinone (1,2-Dihydrotanshinquinone) is an abietane diterpene. 1,2-Dihydrotanshinone inhibits the formation of the pathogenic complex formed between (CUG)n-RNA and the splicing-factor muscleblind-like 1 (MBNL1). 1,2-Dihydrotanshinone can be used for the research of myotonic dystrophy type 1[1][2].
