evoxine

Evoxine is a selective inhibitor of CO2-induced immune suppression. It inhibits hypercapnic suppression of interleukin-6 and the chemokine CCL2 expression in human THP-1 macrophages.

7-Isopentenyloxy-gamma-fagarine has highly cytotoxicity against the MCF-7and Jurkat cell line. It has been used as a precursor for the chemical asymmetric synthesis of the enantiopure alkaloids: evoxine, anhydroevoxine and evodine.
