Description

Uzarigenin is a Na(+), K(+)-ATPase inhibitor; potential anticancer drug. Uzarigenin is a component of Uzara, which has been used for a long time in traditional medicine to treat diarrheal disorders, but the mode of action is not fully known. In Germany, Uzara (Stada, Bad Vilbel, Germany) is frequently used as over-the-counter preparation of the Uzara root, containing 40 mg glycosides/ml.
