HIDE SMILES / InChI
Desacetoxymatricarin is a sesquiterpene lactone found in the genus Artemisia and in the form of 8-hydroxy and acetoxy derivatives in the genus Achillea. The formation of desacetoxymatricarin from (+)-costunolide probably involves more than one enzyme, including a cytochrome P450 enzyme. It is a potent 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGR) inhibitor. Desacetoxymatricarin showed the highest anti-hypercholesterolemic potential. Oligvon, a preparation containing desacetoxymatricarin, is used to prevent and treat artherosclerosis.
