Betulinic acid (472-15-1) is a natural Lupane triterpenoid from white birch tree (Betula pubescens). Induces apoptosis in a variety of cell lines.1 Induces mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening.2  Acts as a chemosensitizer for anticancer drug treatment in chemoresistant colon cancer cell lines.3 Cell permeable.
