Figure 1. Triptonide effectively inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling through a mechanism different from triptolide.

Figure 1

(A) Chemical structures of Triptonide and (B) troptolide are displayed. (C) Triptonide (TN in the figure) effectively inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling induced by Wnt3a conditional media (Wnt3a-CM) in STF293 cells that were stably transfected with TOPFLASH luciferase plasmid. The data was represented as mean relative luciferase activities (RLA) + SEM (n = 3). All the P values are compared to the luciferase activity induced by Wnt3a-CM (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01). (D) Western blotting showed that triptonide did not attenuate Wnt3a-CM-induced active β-catenin expression.
