Overview
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 and is digoxin-like component of Chan Su.
Application:
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.
Bufalin is an anti-metastasis drug, which elicits anti-tumor functionality by favoring cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in various cancer types including hepatocellular, bladder and osteosarcoma. It also promotes autophagic cell death and possesses anti-in

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour. Toxic, refer to SDS for further information. Need more advice on solubility, usage and handling? Please visit our frequently asked questions (FAQ) page for more details.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as bufanolides and derivatives. These are steroid lactones containing a pyran-2-one moiety linked to the C17 atom of a cyclopenta[a]phenanthrene derivative.
