Product Description
Isocorydine was extracted from the nematode Dicranostigma leptopodum (Maxim.) Fedde. The combination of Isocorydine with doxorubicin (DOX) may be used to eliminate hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Isocorydine is a naturally occurring aporphine alkaloid found in various plants, including Argemone mexicana, Berberis densiflora, and Corydalis tuberosa. It has a molecular formula of C20H23NO4 and a molecular weight of 341.40. Isocorydine exhibits vasodilatory and anticancer activities. It reduces the action potential duration and increases the effective refractory period. The (S)-enantiomer is the naturally prevalent form.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Isocorydine does not have a single defined molecular target. It exhibits multiple pharmacological activities, including vasodilation and anticancer effects. Its vasodilatory activity may involve calcium channel blockade or other mechanisms. Its anticancer activity may involve the induction of apoptosis or inhibition of cell proliferation. The compound's mechanism of action is not fully characterized.
ln Vitro
For Huh-7, Hep-G2, SNU-449, and SNU-387, isocorydine (0-400 ug/ml; 48 hours) significantly reduces the IC50 for both ICD and DOX; the corresponding CI values are 0.605, 0.644, 0.804, and 0.707[1]. In human HCC cell lines, isocorydine (0-400 ug/ml; 48 hours) blocks the overexpression of mesenchymal markers and the downregulation of epithelial markers caused by DOX[1].
Isocorydine exhibits vasodilatory and anticancer activities in vitro. It reduces the action potential duration and increases the effective refractory period. Its anticancer activity has been demonstrated in various cancer cell lines. The compound has also been shown to combine with doxorubicin to eradicate hepatocellular carcinoma.
ln Vivo
While isocorydine (0.4 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection given every two days for two weeks) slows the growth of tumors, the combination of isocorydine and doxorubicin (DOX) treatment greatly slows tumor growth[1].
Isocorydine has vasodilatory activity in vivo. It has been shown to have potential in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, particularly in combination with doxorubicin. Its in vivo anticancer efficacy has been demonstrated in preclinical studies, but specific in vivo data is not detailed in the provided sources.
Enzyme Assay
Isocorydine does not have a standard enzyme/receptor binding assay. Its activity is assessed in cell-based assays that measure its vasodilatory or anticancer effects. For vasodilation, isolated blood vessels are treated with the compound, and the relaxation of the vessels is measured. For anticancer activity, cancer cells are treated with the compound, and cell viability is measured.
Cell Assay
Cell Viability Assay[1]
Cell Types: Huh-7, Hep-G2, SNU-387, SNU-449 cells
Tested Concentrations: 0-400 ug/ml
Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Had a higher cytotoxicity in HCC cells in comparison to ICD or DOX alone.
Western Blot Analysis [1]
Cell Types: Huh-7, Hep-G2, SNU-387, SNU-449 cells
Tested Concentrations:
Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: Downregulated protein levels of Claudin-1 and E-cadherin.
In vitro cellular assays for isocorydine involve treating cancer cells with the compound and measuring cell viability or apoptosis. Its vasodilatory activity can be assessed in vascular smooth muscle cells by measuring changes in intracellular calcium levels or by using isolated blood vessels. The compound's ability to enhance the effects of other anticancer agents, such as doxorubicin, can also be studied.
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Female nude mice[1]
Doses: 0.4 mg/ml
Route of Administration: Injected intraperitoneally every 2 days for 2 weeks
Experimental Results: Combined treatment of isocorydine and DOX demonstrated a promising potential to eradicate HCC.
In vivo animal experiments for isocorydine would involve administering the compound to animal models of cancer or hypertension. Its efficacy in reducing tumor growth or lowering blood pressure would be assessed. Its combination with other anticancer agents could also be evaluated. However, specific in vivo data is not provided in the sources.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Isocorydine has a molecular weight of 341.40 and a molecular formula of C20H23NO4. It is a lipophilic alkaloid that is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, and DMSO. Its pharmacokinetic properties, such as oral bioavailability and half-life, are not specified in the provided sources. The compound is typically used in research applications.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicity Summary
Isopropylamine induced G2/M phase arrest by increasing the expression levels of cyclin B1 and phosphorylated CDK1 (p-CDK1), due to decreased Cdc25C expression and inhibited activation. ICD treatment increased the phosphorylation levels of Chk1 and Chk2. Furthermore, ICD-induced G2/M phase arrest could be blocked by Chk1 siRNA but not by Chk2 siRNA. Additionally, isocilidine treatment led to a decrease in the proportion of CD133+ PLC/PRF/5 cells. Notably, isocilidine treatment significantly reduced the tumorigenicity of SMMC-7721 and Huh7 cells.

Toxicological data for isocorydine is not detailed in the provided sources. As a naturally occurring alkaloid, its toxicity is likely to be moderate, but specific safety data is not available. The compound is not intended for human use and is supplied for research purposes only. Standard safety precautions should be followed when handling.
