Lepidiline A
Lepidiline A exhibits cytotoxic activity against HL-60 cells with an IC50 value of 32.3 μM. Lepidiline A targets HSD17B1 activity, increases the bioconversion efficiency of sex hormones (including the conversion of estrogen into 17β-estradiol and 4-androsten-3,7-dione into testosterone), thereby improving the reproductive capacity of fruit flies.[1][2].
