Pharmaceutical Raw Material
Triptolide is a diterpenoid epoxide derived from the thunder god vine (Tripterygium wilfordii). It has shown activity in preclinical models of polycystic kidney disease and pancreatic cancer, but its clinical development is limited by severe toxicity and unfavorable physical properties, leading to the study of a water-soluble prodrug, minnelide.
