Glycoside structure issue
[edit]Comparing the structure shown in the image and the structure encoded in the InChIKey, the glycosides are different. --The chemistds (talk) 11:52, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
All original research and speculations based on editorial analogizing between digoxin and cerberin are being removed
[edit]The article is rife with speculations on cerberin PK/PD/ADMETox based on digoxin, and these are being removed as unacceptable WP:OR.
Note, while the nice Prassas & Diamandis Nature reviews is fine for the general subject, there are no mentions of cerberin in this review, and its uses, except in the most general sense, about other cardiac glycosides, is again an example of WP:OR.

Citation review and edit
[edit]The following citation makes no mention of the title compound, is a self published student tutorial, and is dated. Its appearance, repeatedly (7 times), in an article on a topic the source does not mention, makes its use WP:OR.
- Richard E. Klabunde, 2012, " Cardiovascular Pharmacology Concepts: Cardiac Glycosides (Digitalis Compounds) [student tutorials, Marian University College of Osteopathic Medicine], self-published, see [1], accessed 18 June 2015. [Note, there is no mention of the title compound in this student tutorial, so any connection to specific statements in this article is editorial original research.][self-published source?][better source needed]
Note, the source was URL-only, before I completed it and moved it here.
I moved it here out of consideration, but it should not be returned to the article, except by a physician or pharmacologist and expert, who checks, point by point, in the edit history diff, where the citation was removed, and if this substandard source can be used to support the appearing, currently unsourced statement. Note, I am also adding this same professor's physiology textbook, which also does not mention the title compound, but which would be a better source of general information (than the Prof's self-published student tutorials).

- Similarly, there is no mention of cerberin in the Becker citation (on this date, Ref. 9), and so mention of it is removed from the sentence bearing this continuing dental education citation. Assigning a general therapeutic index to cerberin based on a publication stating a number for its class of compounds is specious, and the sentences themselves should likely be removed, absent a citation giving the index for cerberin itself.

- Similarly, the self-published "docstoc" slide set from "Moayyad J. Al Omar, Clinical Pharmacist," citation [2], was removed as unsuitable. Le Prof 71.201.62.200 (talk) 20:36, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
