HIDE SMILES / InChI
Sennoside A, derived from the traditional chinese medicine plant Rheum L., has being shown to be a dual HIV-1 inhibitor effective on HIV-1 replication. Sennoside A is a kind of irritant laxative. It is also used for colonoscopy preparation. It mildly inhibits bovine serum monoamine oxidase with IC50 of 17uM.

Originator

Curator's Comment: The active principle of Senna was first isolated and characterized by Stoll in 1941. The first two glycosides were identified and attributed to the anthraquinone family. These were found to be dimeric products of aloe emodin and/or rhein which were named sennoside A and sennoside B.
