Sesquiterpenoids from Atractylodes macrocephala act as farnesoid X receptor and progesterone receptor modulators.

Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 22 , 2326-2329, (2012)

Two sesquiterpenoids, atractylenolide II and III, were isolated and identified from Atractylodes macrocephala (Asteraceae) to be subsequently evaluated for their activity against farnesoid X receptor (FXR) and progesterone receptor (PR) by transient transfect...

Targeting of the Sonic Hedgehog pathway by atractylenolides promotes chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.

Biol. Pharm. Bull. 35 , 1328-1335, (2012)

Molecules that enhance chondrogenic differentiation in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were identified and isolated using an in vitro Gli reporter gene assay in MSCs incorporating a Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) target. Atractylenolide III, which promoted Gli1-mediated ...
