General description

Cycloastragenol is a sapogenin and an aglycone found in or derived from Astragalus membranaceus. It is a natural triterpenoid.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cycloastragenol is used as a nutraceutical (e.g. TAT2) and seems to moderately increase the telomerase activity and proliferative capacity of both CD4 and CD8 T-cells. Cycloastragenol possesses antiviral, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-hepatotoxic, anti-leukemia, antitumor and antinociceptive activity. It also acts as an immunomodulator.
