Bufalin is a C-24 steroid with an α-pyrone ring positioned at C-17. It is present in the venom glands and skin of toad, Venenum Bufonis.Bufalin is a cardiotonic steroid[5] and is digoxin-like component of Chan Su.
Bufalin has been used:
• to test its effect on invasion and activation of nuclear factor kappa- B (NF-κB) cells and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) stimulated rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RAFLSs)
• as a nuclear receptor coactivator 3 (NCOA3) inhibitor in chondrocytes
• to test its anti-metastasis effect in lung cancer cells (NCI-H460) resistant to gefitinib
