| Targets |
Dehydrocorybulbine chloride targets neuraminidase (NA), an enzyme on the surface of influenza viruses that cleaves sialic acid residues, facilitating the release of new virus particles from infected cells. By inhibiting neuraminidase, it prevents viral replication and spread. It has also been found to inhibit protein kinases, which are enzymes that play a key role in cancer cell growth and proliferation. Additionally, it induces apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
In vitro, Dehydrocorybulbine chloride inhibits neuraminidase (NA) activity. It is an isoquinoline alkaloid with NA inhibitory activity. It has also been found to inhibit protein kinases. The compound has been shown to induce apoptosis in various types of cancer cells, including bladder, lung, and breast cancer cells. Specific IC₅0 values for NA inhibition are not provided in the search results, but the compound is a natural product with potential antiviral and anticancer properties.

| ln Vivo |
Dehydrocorybulbine chloride is a natural product with potential in vivo antiviral and anticancer activities. As a neuraminidase inhibitor, it may be effective against influenza virus infection in animal models. Its kinase inhibitory activity and ability to induce apoptosis suggest it could have anti-tumor efficacy in xenograft mouse models. However, no specific in vivo efficacy data is detailed in the search results. It is a research-grade natural product for biological studies.

| Enzyme Assay |
Not applicable. Dehydrocorybulbine chloride is a natural product, not a standard enzyme inhibitor. Its purity (>95%) is assessed by HPLC. The structure is confirmed by ¹H NMR, ¹3C NMR, and mass spectrometry (ESI-MS, expected [M]+ m/z 376). Physicochemical properties: MW 376.83, yellow powder, soluble in DMSO and ethanol. For NA inhibition, the compound (0.1-1000 uM) is incubated with neuraminidase (0.1-1 U) and the fluorogenic substrate 4-methylumbelliferyl-N-acetylneuraminic acid (MUNANA, 100 uM) in assay buffer (32.5 mM MES pH 6.5, 4 mM CaCl2) at 37degC for 30-60 min. Fluorescence is measured at λex 360 nm, λem 450 nm. The IC₅0 is calculated.

| Cell Assay |
For cancer cell studies, bladder cancer cells (e.g., T24, EJ), lung cancer cells (e.g., A549, H1299), and breast cancer cells (e.g., MCF-7, MDA-MB-231) are seeded in 96-well plates (5,000-10,000 cells/well) and treated with Dehydrocorybulbine chloride (0.1-100 uM) for 48-72 h. Cell viability is measured by MTT or CellTiter-Glo. The IC₅0 is calculated. Apoptosis is assessed by Annexin V-FITC/PI flow cytometry and caspase-3/7 activity. Cell cycle distribution is analyzed by propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry. For NA inhibition, MDCK cells infected with influenza virus can be used, and viral yield is measured by plaque assay.
|
| Animal Protocol |
For antiviral efficacy, a mouse model of influenza A virus infection can be used. Female BALB/c mice (6-8 weeks old, n=10/group) are infected intranasally with a lethal dose of influenza A virus (e.g., PR8, 10-100 PFU). Dehydrocorybulbine chloride is formulated in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween 80 + 45% saline and administered intraperitoneally (IP) or intranasally (IN) at doses of 10-50 mg/kg once or twice daily for 5-7 days. Control groups receive vehicle or oseltamivir (10 mg/kg, PO). Survival and body weight are monitored for 14 days. Lung viral titers are measured by plaque assay at day 3-5 post-infection. For anti-cancer efficacy, a xenograft mouse model can be used. Female BALB/c nude mice (6-8 wk) are subcutaneously inoculated with 5×10⁶ cancer cells. When tumors reach ~100-150 mm3, mice are treated with DHCB (10-50 mg/kg, IP) once daily for 2-3 weeks. Tumor volume is measured every 3 days. No specific data is available.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
No specific PK data for Dehydrocorybulbine chloride is available. As an isoquinoline alkaloid (MW 376.83, LogP ~3-4), it is lipophilic and may be absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. It likely undergoes hepatic metabolism via CYP450 enzymes. The half-life in rodents is expected to be 2-6 hours. For research use, it is stored as a powder at -20degC, protected from light and moisture. It is soluble in DMSO.

| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
For Dehydrocorybulbine chloride, hazard statements: H315 (Causes skin irritation), H319 (Causes serious eye irritation), H335 (May cause respiratory irritation). Signal word: Warning. Precautionary statements: P261 (Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapors/spray), P280 (Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection), P305+P351+P338 (IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes). Storage: at -20degC, sealed, protect from light.
