Yellow needle crystal powder, soluble in methanol, ethanol, DMSO and other organic solvents, derived from Corydalis Corydalis, Yuanhu.
Dehydrocordine has analgesic and sedative effects. It was used for content determination/identification/pharmacological experiments, etc.
ChEBI: Dehydrocorydaline is an alkaloid.
Dehydrocorydaline (13-Methylpalmatine) is an alkaloid isolated from the traditional Chinese medicine Corydalis yanhusuo. It can enhance p38 MAPK activation and has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects. Also Dehydrocorydaline has potent antimalarial effects and low cytotoxicity (cell viability > 90%), P. falciparum 3D7 strain (IC50=38 nM).
Dehydrocorydaline (0-200 μM) treatment significantly inhibits the growth of MCF-7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. The cell viability is decreased by approximate 40% after 24 h of 200 μM Dehydrocorydaline.
Dehydrocorydaline (0-200 μM) dose-dependently increases Bax protein expression and decreases Bcl-2 protein expression.
Dehydrocorydaline (0-200 μM) induces activation of caspase-7,-8 and the cleavage of PARP without affecting caspase-9.
Dehydrocorydaline manifests a low acute toxicity with an LD 50 of about 277.5±19.0 mg/kg body weight in mice following oral administration and 21.1±1.4 mg/kg for intraperitoneal injection. < /p>
