Chelidonine, sanguinarine, and chelerythrine are natural benzophenanthridine alkaloids that inhibit taxol-mediated polymerization of rat brain tubulin in the micromolar range. Chelidonine is a weak, competitive inhibitor of colchicine binding to tubulin but does not inhibit podophyllotoxin binding. On the other

An HPLC procedure on a polar reversed-phase column with mobile phases containing ionic liquid (IL) was developed for the analysis of selected alkaloids from different chemical groups. We aimed to obtain optimal conditions for the separation of alkaloids because widely

The effects of benzophenanthridine alkaloids, such as sanguinarine and chelidonine, on monoamine -oxidase (MAO) activity in mouse brain were investigated. Sanguinarine showed an inhibitory effect on MAO activity in a concentration dependent manner (53.4% inhibition at 25 microM). However, chelidonine

Sanguinarine, chelerythrine and chelidonine possess prominent apoptotic effects towards cancer cells. In this study, we found that sanguinarine and chelerythrine induce apoptosis in human CEM T-leukemia cells, and that is accompanied by an early increase in cytosolic cytochrome c that
