Neuroprotection

Dauricine
Catalog No: CFN98129

Dauricine may has neuroprotective, and anti-tumor effects, it can pass the blood‑brain barrier, and that P‑glycoprotein has an important role in the transportation of Dauricine across the blood‑brain barrier, it can inhibit tumor cells in urinary system and colon cancer cell proliferation, invasion; induce cell apoptosis by suppressing NF-kappaB activity and the expression profile of its downstream genes. Dauricine also has pulmonary toxicity, can produce pulmonary injury in CD-1 mice by the metabolism of Dauricine mediated by CYP3A.

Strychnine
Catalog No: CFN98130

Strychnine-insensitive glycine site NMDA antagonist ( R )-HA-966 have neuroprotective effects in an experimental model of Parkinson's disease. Strychnine insensitive glycine receptor has anticonvulsant properties.Strychnine can block binaural inhibition in lateral superior olivary neurons, decrease the voltage-dependent Ca2+ current of both Aplysia and frog ganglion neurons. Strychnine also has inhibitory effects on GABA- and glycine-induced responses.

(+)-Afzelechin
Catalog No: CFN98280

(+)-Afzelechin has a neuroprotective effect on the glutamate-induced neurotoxicity in HT22 cells, it has ABTS cation radical scavenging effects with IC50 values of 23.7 microM; it also shows moderate to strong radical scavenging properties against diphenylpicrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) and improves the reduced glutathione levels in rat pancreatic homogenate.(+)-Afzelechin has inhibitory compound of alpha-glucosidase activity, the ID(50) (50% inhibition dose) value is 0.13 mM.

Rhynchophylline
Catalog No: CFN98131

Rhynchophylline, a noncompetitive antagonist of the NMDA receptor, which has anti-inflammatory, anti-hypertension, cardiacprotective and neuroprotective activities. Rhynchophylline can markedly inhibit rabbit platelet aggregation induced by ADP or thrombin possibly by depressing the inflow of Ca2+ and the rise of the cytoplasmic free calcium level in platelet.Rhynchophylline can reduce the systolic blood pressure (SBP) of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) significantly, decrease plasma Ang II, ADMA, and AT1R levels, and promote serum NO and NOS levels, which has the protection of vascular endothelial function.

Harpagide
Catalog No: CFN98148

Harpagide has neuroprotective effect, it can obviously protect acute cerebral ischemia in mice,its therapeutical effects are approached to protecting the activity of brain mitochondria and decreasing protein expression level of caspase-3; harpagide also has a potential for prevention of bone loss in ovariectomized (OVX) mice by regulating the stimulation of osteoblast differentiation and the suppression of osteoclast formation. Harpagide may have anti-inflammatory efficacy.
