(+)-Bicuculline
|
(+)-Bicuculline is a competitive antagonist of GABAA receptors with IC50 of 2 μM, also blocks Ca(2+)-activated potassium channels.It is effective in vitro against spore germination of some plant pathogenic fungi, it can significantly inhibit spore germination of all the fungi at concentrations of 100-1000 ppm. |
BCN1840 |
Janolusimide
|
1. Janolusimide is a neurotoxin and atropine antagonist. |
BCN1841 |
Lactacystin
|
1. Lactacystin induces cell death and α-synuclein-positive inclusions in cytoplasm.
2. Lactacystin has diversified killing effects on gastric cancer cells, the mechanism may be related to induce the apoptosis by downregulation of nuclear factor kappa B viability.
3. Lactacystin is a selective UPS inhibitor recently used to destroy dopamine (DA) neurons in animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD); marked differences in the rotational response to apomorphine and l-DOPA suggest different mechanisms of neurodegeneration evoked by Lactacystin and 6-OHDA. |
BCN2145 |
Trichodesmine
|
1. Trichodesmine has greater lethality and neurotoxicity than monocrotaline, because of the two structural characteristics:
(a) steric hindrance at position 14 of dehydroTrichodesmine results in greater resistance to hydrolysis, allowing more to be released from the liver and to be delivered to the brain;
(b) the larger isopropyl substituent at position 14 of dehydroTrichodesmine renders the molecule more lipophilic, leading to greater penetration of the brain. |
BCN2203 |
Corticosterone
|
Corticosterone, the major stress hormone, is an adrenocortical steroid that has modest but significant activities as a mineralocorticoid and a glucocorticoid, it is cytotoxic toward neurons, and the cytotoxic effect could be protected by Yokukansan.
A delayed effect of elevated Corticosterone on breeding success rather than an immediate suppression of prolactin concentrations causing premature failure. |
