Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Coralyne chloride is a a protoberberine alkaloid, can be used as a fluorescent DNA-based molecular rectifier. Coralyne constructs into a DNA duplex by site-specific intercalation. Coralyne is a useful fluorescent probe for the sensitive and selective detection of heparin, DNA, nucleic acid, etc. Coralyne is also a promising antitumor and necurodrug.

Biological target:
Coralyne chloride acts as a potent topoisomerase I poison and induces Top I mediated DNA cleavage.
In vitro activity:
Next, this study determined the maximum non-toxic dose of coralyne on A549 cells using the propidium iodide short-term cytotoxicity assay and the long-term survival assay. Results showed no signs of significant toxicity when the coralyne was permanently available at concentrations ranging from 1 to 15 µM for up to 72 h. When the coralyne was washed from the medium after 24 h, the IC75 and IC50 values from the clonogenic survival assay after 10 days were calculated as ~ 25 µM and 50 µM, respectively. These results are in agreement with the earlier documented in vitro study using coralyne. The authors reported that metabolic activity of A549, MCF7, A431 and MDA-MB-231 was not decreased by the coralyne at concentrations ranging from 0.01 µM to 20 µM after 72 h. In line with these results, Bhattacharyya et al. found that the coralyne at concentrations ranging from 1 µM to 5 µM did not induce any cytotoxicity against U2-OS, A549 and A431 cancer cells after 72 h.
