| Bioactivity | T-Cadinol is a sesquiterpene isolated from C. sylvestris that exhibits anti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity, with IC50 values of 18.2 μM and 15.8 μM against trypomastigote and amastigote forms, respectively. T-Cadinol can induce mitochondrial damage in parasites, leading to membrane hyperpolarization and decreased levels of reactive oxygen species. T-Cadinol can be used for the research of Chagas disease[1]. |
