Wilforgine

Wilforgine is a bioactive sesquiterpene alkaloid in Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. F. Wilforgine can induce microstructural and ultrastructural changes in the muscles of Mythimna separata larvae, and the sites of action are proposed to be calcium receptors or channels in the muscular system[1][2].
