Biological Context

Bufotalin is a bufadienolide that has been found in toad (B. asiaticus) venom and has cytotoxic and immunomodulatory activities.1,2 It induces cell cycle arrest at the G1 phase and apoptosis in Hep3B cells when used at concentrations ranging from 0.13 to 1.13 µM.1 Bufotalin (100 µg/kg) reduces autoantibody production, serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IFN-γ, IL-22, and IL-17, and the number of splenic and lymph node Th17 cells, as well as increases saliva flow rates in a mouse model of experimental Sjörgren’s syndrome, an autoimmune disease characterized by the reduced secretion of exocrine glands.2 It also induces lethality in anesthetized dogs (LD50 = 0.36 mg/kg).3
