Bioactivity | Biliatresone is a natural toxin isolated from Dysphania glomulifera and D. littoralis. Biliatresone, a 1,2-diaryl-2-propenone class of isoflavonoid, produces extrahepatic biliary atresia in a zebrafish model[1]. |
Invitro | Biliatresone has a reduction in primary cilia and a dose-dependent decrease in visible microtubules, suggesting that Biliatresone decreases microtubule stability in primary neonatal mouse extrahepatic cholangiocytes[1]. Biliatresone (2 µg/ml; for 24 hours) shows disruption of the spheroid lumen and abnormal cholangiocyte polarity in mouse cholangiocyte[1]. |
