Dihydrotanshinone I

Dihydrotanshinone I (DI) is a naturally occurring compound extracted from Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge, also known as Chinese sage, red sage root, and the Chinese herbal Dan Shen. It belongs to a class of lipophilic abietane biterpenoids[2] and has been reported to have cytotoxicity to a variety of tumor cells.[3] Since they were first discovered, over 40 related compounds and over 50 hydrophilic compounds have been isolated from Dan Shen.[2]
