Dihydroartemisinin (mixture of α and β isomers)
Dihydroartemisinin (mixture of α and β isomers) is an anti-malaria and anticancer agent, as well as an active metabolite of artemisinin and its derivatives. Dihydroartemisinin exerts anticancer effects through various molecular mechanisms, such as inhibiting proliferation, inducing apoptosis, inhibiting tumor metastasis and angiogenesis, promoting immune function, inducing autophagy and endoplasmic reticulum stress[1].
