1,2-Methylenedioxy-3,10,11-trimethoxyaporphine exerts moderate vessel-relaxing activities with the IC 50 value from 16.50 to 32.81 microM at the test concentrations.
Thalicarpine is a natural aporphine benzylisoquinoline vinca alkaloid with antineoplastic activity. Thalicarpine binds to and inhibits p-glycoprotein, the multidrug resistance efflux pump. Thalicarpine also induces single-strand breaks in DNA and arrests cancer cells at the G2 M and G1 phase of the cell cycle. Check for active clinical trials or closed clinical trials using this agent.
(+)-N-Formylnorglaucine, an aporphine alkaloid found in the leaves of Unonopsis stipitata, features a formyl group that is connected to the nitrogen within its heterocyclic structure.
Oxonantenine is an oxoaporphine alkaloid isolated from Annona glabra and has been shown to exhibit acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity. It has a role as a plant metabolite and an EC 3.1.1.7 (acetylcholinesterase) inhibitor. It is an organic heteropentacyclic compound, an oxacycle, an aromatic ether, an alkaloid antibiotic and an oxoaporphine alkaloid. It derives from an aporphine.
