| Targets |
Ferutinin targets the mitochondrial membrane by acting as an electrogenic Ca2+-ionophore to increase calcium permeability. It also targets estrogen receptors, acting as an ERalpha agonist (IC50=33.1 nM) and an ERbeta agonist/antagonist (IC50=180.5 nM).

| ln Vitro |
Ferutinin has the ability to cause apoptosis in a range of cell types, including estrogen-dependent cancer cells MCF-7, leukemic T cell lines (Jurkat), colon cancer cells from humans and mice (Caco-2, CT26, HT29), and cancer cells from the bladder (TCC). Ferutinin is suggested as an anti-osteoporotic phytoestrogen because it promotes bone mineralization [2]. Ferutinin induces apoptosis in several cell lines in a manner that is dependent on the mitochondria and dramatically increases the permeability of artificial and cell membranes to Ca2+ ions. Additionally, membrane potential is dose-dependently dissipated by ferunitinin alone (10–60 µM). When Ca2+ ions are present, ferunitin (10–60 µM) significantly depolarizes the inner mitochondrial membrane [2].
Ferutinin manifests antiproliferative activity, inducing apoptosis in various cell types including MCF-7 cancer cells, Jurkat T-cells, and colon carcinoma cells. It dissipates mitochondrial membrane potential dose-dependently and induces apoptosis in a mitochondria-dependent manner. |
| ln Vivo |
Ferutinin potentiates bone mineralization and is proposed as an anti-osteoporosis phytoestrogen in research models. It produces apoptotic cell death in different cell lines and considerably increases the permeability of cellular membranes to Ca2+ ions.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Binding affinity and functional activity at estrogen receptors (ERalpha and ERbeta) are measured using competitive binding assays with radiolabeled estradiol. Ionophore activity is assessed by measuring Ca2+ flux across artificial lipid bilayers or isolated mitochondria using fluorescent calcium indicators.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell viability is assessed via MTT assays across a concentration range. Apoptosis is confirmed through Annexin V/PI staining and caspase activity measurements. Mitochondrial membrane potential is measured using fluorescent probes such as JC-1 or TMRM.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Dedicated in vivo animal models include ovariectomized rodents for osteoporosis research to assess bone mineral density. Xenograft tumor models in mice are used to evaluate antitumor efficacy via tumor volume measurement and apoptosis analysis.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Standard PK profiling is not extensively published. Based on its lipophilic terpenoid nature, Ferutinin is expected to have good membrane permeability, but detailed PK parameters such as half-life, bioavailability, and tissue distribution require further investigation.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Detailed toxicological data for Ferutinin is limited. As a natural terpenoid, comprehensive acute and chronic toxicity studies have not been widely reported. Researchers should handle it with standard laboratory precautions.

| Additional Infomation |
Ferutinin is an organic molecular entity. It has been reported that Ferutinine is present in Ferula jaeschkeana, Ferula akitschkensis, and other organisms with available data.
Ferutinin is a phytoestrogen with higher binding affinity for ERalpha than ERbeta and demonstrates tissue-selective estrogenic effects. Its calcium ionophore activity distinguishes it from classical ER ligands, representing a dual mechanism for its antiproliferative and bone-protective effects. |
