Background:

Turkesterone is a phytoecdysteroid that has been found inA. turkestanicaand has diverse biological activities.¹It binds to the ecdysteroid receptor (K_D= 0.491 µM for theC. tentansreceptor) and induces pupariation inG. mellonella, S. bullata, andD. vulpinuslast instar larvae (ED₅₀s = 10, 0.03, and 0.2 µg/larvae, respectively).^2,3Turkesterone scavenges DPPH radicals in a cell-free assay (IC₅₀= 140.92 µg/ml) and is cytotoxic to HeLa cervical, HepG2 hepatic, and MCF-7 breast cancer cells (IC₅₀s = 75.2, 63.01, and 105.2 µg/ml, respectively).¹It decreases serum glucose levels and increases serum insulin and C-peptide levels in a rat model of diabetes induced by alloxan when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg.⁴Turkesterone prevents immobilization stress-induced stomach ulcers in mice.⁵
