Chelerythrine is a natural alkaloid, acts as a potent and selective Ca2+/phospholopid-dependent PKC antagonist, with an IC50 of 0.7 μM. Chelerythrine has antitumor, antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory activity. Chelerythrine inhibits the BclXL-Bak BH3 peptide binding with IC50 of 1.5 μM and displaces Bax from BclXL. Chelerythrine triggers apoptosis and autophagy.

At equivalent molar concentrations, both the salt and free forms of a compound exhibit comparable biological activity. Nevertheless, the salt form (Chelerythrine chloride) usually boasts enhanced water solubility and stability.

    Description

    Chelerythrine is a natural alkaloid, acts as a potent and selective Ca2+/phospholopid-dependent PKC antagonist, with an IC50 of 0.7 μM[1]. Chelerythrine has antitumor, antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory activity[2]. Chelerythrine inhibits the BclXL-Bak BH3 peptide binding with IC50 of 1.5 μM and displaces Bax from BclXL. Chelerythrine triggers apoptosis and autophagy[3][4].

    IC50 & Target[1]

    PKC

    0.7 μM (IC50)

    In Vitro

    Chelerythrine (48 h) inhibits the growth of L-1210 cells (IC50: 0.53 uM )[1].
    Chelerythrine (0-20 μM, 24 h) inhibits cell viability, induces apoptosis and autophagy in A549 and NCI-H1299 cells[4].
    Chelerythrine (0-5 μM, 24 or 48 h) induces apoptosis in BclXL-overexpressing SH-SY5Y cells[3].
    Chelerythrine (2.5-10 μM, 16 h) induces mitochondrial depolarization (decrease in mitochondrial potential) in SH-SY5Y cells, and stimulates release of CytC from isolated mitochondria[4].
    Chelerythrine (0-100 ng/mL, 24 h) reduces the LPS induced production of NO and TNF-α in primary macrophages[5].
    Chelerythrine (MIC: 0.156 mg/mL) shows antibacterial activities against Gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus (SA), MRSA, and extended spectrum β-lactamase S. aureus (ESBLs-SA)[6].

    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.
