Description
Amorphigenin is a trothotenone compound. Amorphigenin inhibits osteoclast differentiation by suppressing the expression of c-Fos and NFATc1 in activated T cells. Amorphigenin degrades melanosome proteins by activating the AMPK-dependent autophagy pathway, but not in dependence of the mTOR pathway. Amorphigenin significantly protects bone mass and reduces bone erosion in a mouse model of inflammatory bone loss. Amorphigenin can be used to study inflammatory bone diseases, postmenopausal osteoporosis, and skin pigmentation disorders[1][2].
