Product Data
Biological target:
Coptisine chloride acts as an efficient uncompetitive IDO inhibitor with a Ki value of 5.8 μM and an IC50 value of 6.3 μM. Coptisine chloride is a potent H1N1 neuraminidase (NA-1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 104.6 μg/mL.
In vitro activity:
Results showed that COP (coptisine) inhibited the cell viability and proliferation of EC cells, and COP induced G2/M phase arrest of EC cells and decreased the expression of claudin-2, p-cdc2, CDK1 and cyclin B1. Reference: Pharmazie. 2021 May 1;76(5):202-207. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33964993/
In vivo activity:
The impaired EDRs in aortas from these diabetic (DM) mice were enhanced by coptisine treatment (1 µM, 16 h) (Figure 3A) whilst SNP-induced endothelium-independent relaxations remained unaltered (Figure 3B).
