Anticancer potential of β-sitosterol

2017-08-28

Abstract excerpt

β-Sitosterol (beta-sitosterol) is a natural phytosterol of steroidal nature and similar to cholesterol. This review is devoted to claims of β-sitosterol effects on various types of cancer. Studies of its fate in the organism significantly improved with the development of modern instrumental analytical methods as they made it possible for scientist to identify β-sitosterol and other phytosterols in the presence of...
