Description

Gitogenin was first extracted from the herbs of Agave Americana. This compound was found to be a selective inhibitor of UDP- glucuronosyltransferase 1A4 and α-glucosidase, and does not exhibit any inhibition of the major human CYP isoforms. In vitro experiments revealed that gitogenin moderated stimulation for the release of growth hormone from rat pituitary cells.
