Description
Curator's Comment: The description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29101813 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28303962 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16081050 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/13873586

Digitoxigenin is a cardenolide and aglycone constituent of digitoxin, an extract from the foxglove plant, D. purpurea. It elicits cardiac contraction and cardiotonic effects by inhibiting the Na+/K+ ATPase via binding at the digitalis receptor site with nanomolar potency. Digitoxigenin is highly cytotoxic, inhibiting Na+/K+ ATPase-dependent protein synthesis, and has been examined for use as an antitumor compound.

Route of Administration: Intravenous
The effects of ouabain, digitoxigenin, and INCICH-D7 were determined in the standard reaction medium at different concentrations (0.1 nM–1 mM). The enzyme (7 mkg/ml) was preincubated for 10 min at 37 C in the reaction medium with ouabain, digitoxigenin or INCICH-D7. The reaction was started by adding ATP (2.5 mM), lasted for 10 min, and stopped by adding an equal volume of 10% iced-cold trichloroacetic acid. The tubes were then centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 5 min. The hydrolyzed ATP was measured by determining inorganic phosphate (Pi) released according to the method of Taussky and Shorr
