Ecdysteroid Chemistry and Biochemistry Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the techniques used for ecdysteroid analysis and the biosynthesis and metabolism of these hormones. Ecdysteroids could be defined either by their biological activity (molting hormones) or their chemical structure. The huge che...

Currently, ecdysteroids for commercial preparations are obtained from ecdysteroid-rich plants that contain them in considerable quantities. The taxons which are especially worth mentioning are those used in traditional medicine:Ajuga turkestanica,Leuzea carthamoides(Willd.) Iljin., and severalPfaffiaspecies...

SYNOPSIS. Remarkable development in ecdysone research has been achieved during this decade in terms of organic chemistry, biochemistry and physiology, although the problems concerning the action and behavior of ecdysteroids in target cells still remain to be solved. To elucidate the dynamics of ...
In subject area: Chemistry Phytoecdysteroids are polyhydroxylated chemicals found in plants, particularly in quinoa, that protect against pests, have antioxidant properties, and can be used as a safe alternative to anabolic steroids for muscle growth and physical performance improvement. ...
To sum up, the progress in the field of plant biotechnology concerning ecdysteroid production may significantly influence the progress in the field of cell biochemistry, providing useful molecular tools to study the phenomena related to many degenerative diseases, providing at the same time valuable ...
