| | Chelerythrine Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Chelerythrine chloride is the chloride form of Chelerythrine chloride which is a benzophenanthridine alkaloid isolated from the plant Chelidonium majus (greater celandine). It is a kind of potent, selective, and cell-permeable protein kinase C inhibitor, an efficient antagonist of G-protein-coupled CB1 receptors, and an independent activator of MAPK pathways. It has a wide range of biological activities including antiplatelet, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antitumor effects. It has reported of that it is capable of inducing apoptosis in HL-60 human promyelocytic leukemia cells and several other cancer cell lines. The underlying mechanism is through its effects of inhibiting the binding of BclXL to Bax or Bad.

| | Uses | Chelerythrine Chloride is a cell permeable protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor. | | Definition | ChEBI: A benzophenanthridine alkaloid isolated from the root of Zanthoxylum simulans, Chelidonium majus L., and other Papaveraceae. | | Biological Activity | Potent, cell-permeable inhibitor of protein kinase C (IC 50 = 660 nM); competitive with respect to the phosphate acceptor and non-competitive with respect to ATP. Has a wide range of biological activities, including antiplatelet, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antitumor effects. Activates MAPK pathways, independent of PKC inhibition. Inhibits binding of BclXL to Bak (IC 50 = 1.5 μ M) or Bad proteins and stimulates apoptosis. | | Purification Methods | Chelerythrine crystallises from CHCl3 on addition of MeOH [Manske Can J Res 21B 140 1943, UV: Hruban et al. Coll Czech Chem Commun 35 3420 1970]. The pseudo base is colourless while the salts are yellow in aqueous solution and are fluorescent. |
