Abstract
The protecting effect of betulin against cadmium toxicity was investigated using 11 kinds of analogues. It was elucidated by analyzing the analogue activities that both hydroxyl groups on C-3 and C-28 and the isopropenyl group on C-19 played important roles for expressing efficient activities. In addition, the cytotoxicity of betulin was also reduced by being functionalized using the above functional group.Entities:
