5-Dehydroepisterol is a C28 alkylated sterol based on ergostane, and serves as a major component of the sterol pool in Leishmania parasites. The content of 5-Dehydroepisterol in Leishmania promastigotes can be depleted by 22,26-Azasterol, Amiodarone (HY-14187) and Tomatine (HY-N2166). Among these agents, Amiodarone (HY-14187) inhibits the biosynthetic process of this sterol by disrupting the function of squalene epoxidase. 5-Dehydroepisterol can be used in the research of leishmaniasis and cutaneous leishmaniasis .
