Cat. No.: HY-Y0152 Purity: 99.56%
SDS COA Handling Instructions

Cinchonine is a natural compound present in Cinchona bark with antimalarial, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti platelet-aggregation and anti-obesity properties. Cinchonine inhibits cells proliferation and autophagy and induces apoptosis through activation of Caspase-3. Cinchonine activates endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis in human liver cancer cells.

Description

Cinchonine is a natural compound present in Cinchona bark with antimalarial, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, anti platelet-aggregation and anti-obesity properties. Cinchonine inhibits cells proliferation and autophagy and induces apoptosis through activation of Caspase-3. Cinchonine activates endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptosis in human liver cancer cells[1].

In Vitro

Cinchonine induces apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferations in HepG2 and SMCC7721 (180 μM, 24 h), as well as in cells HeLa and A549 (180 μM, 48-96 h) [2][3].
Cinchonine (50-100 μM, 24 h) inihibits tumor growth in lungen cancer cells A549 and H1975, with IC50 values of 76.67 and 87.44 μM, respectively[4].
Cinchonine (0-20 μM, 24 h) blocks autophagy flux through the inhibition of a maturation of lysosomal hydrolases[4].
Cinchonine (20 μM) induces osteoclast differentiation and osteogenesis[6].
Cinchonine inhibits platelet aggregation through inhibition of Ca2+ flux (IC50: 300 μM) and protein kinase C (IC50: 20 μM)[7].
Cinchonine inhibits proliferation (0-100 μM, 72 h) of T. evansi , with IC50 of 16.96 μM in 24 h [8].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
