Tylophorine is a major alkaloid of Tylophora indica with anti-inflammatory and antitumor activity. Tylophorine arrests carcinoma cells at G1 phase by downregulating cyclin A2 expression.
Tylophorine analog DCB-3503 is a potential anticancer and immunosuppressive agent. DCB-3503 suppresses the translation of cellular regulatory proteins, including cyclin D1, at the elongation step. DCB-3503 allosterically regulates the ATPase and chaperone activities of HSC70 by promoting ATP hydrolysis in the presence of specific RNA binding motifs (AUUUA) of cyclin D1 mRNA.
Tylophorine analog Org-6906 is a potential anticancer and immunosuppressive agent. Org-6906 suppresses the translation of cellular regulatory proteins, including cyclin D1, at the elongation step. Org-6906 allosterically regulates the ATPase and chaperone activities of HSC70 by promoting ATP hydrolysis in the presence of specific RNA binding motifs (AUUUA) of cyclin D1 mRNA.
