Description:

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

Chelerythrine hydrochloride is the salt form of chelerythrine, a benzophenanthridine alkaloid present in the plant Chelidonium majus (greater celandine). It is a potent, selective, and cell-permeable protein kinase C inhibitor in vitro. And an efficacious antagonist of G-protein-coupled CB1 receptors. This molecule also exhibits anticancer qualities and it has served as a base for many potential novel drugs against cancer.
