Descripción

General description

Aloe-emodin is a hydroxyanthraquinone and an active component present in Aloe vera leaves and root/rhizome of Rheum palmatum, possessing specific in vitro and in vivo antineuroectodermal tumor activity.

Application

Aloe-emodin may be used as a reference standard in the determination of aloe-emodin in Aloe vera extracts and commercial formulations using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with tandem UV absorption and fluorimetric detection.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Laxative/cathartic compound; increases the contraction of intestinal smooth muscle by releasing endogenous acetylcholine. Anti-tumor activity is associated with an increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that, in turn, reduces the mitochondrial transmembrane electrical potential, thus inducing a permeability transition that sets in motion a series of events culminating in cellular apoptosis. Genotoxicity and mutagenicity appear to be due to the inhibition of topoisomerase II activity by aloe emodin.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Other Notes

This compound is commonly found in plants of the genus: aloe
