Tetrandrine and berbamine are bisbenzylisoquinoline compounds which differ from each other in a minor way in terms of chemical structure, yet tetrandrine is 6-18 times more potent than berbamine in terms of inhibitory effects on production of interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF alpha) by
The effects of the bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids tetrandrine and berbamine on the action of IL-1, TNF and PAF were investigated in the rat subcutaneous air pouch model of inflammation. Both compounds were equipotent in the suppression of leukocyte infiltration into air pouches induced by IL-1 and
OBJECTIVE
To observe the inhibitory effect of 4-chlorobenzoyl berbamine (BBD9) on imatinib-resistant cell line K562 (K562/IR) in vitro and in vivo and explore the mechanisms.
METHODS
The IC50 of BBD9 and berbamine (BBM) was determined by MTT assay. The expressions of p210(Bcr-Abl), IKKa, cytoplasmic
The bisbenzylisoquinoline (BBI) alkaloids chondocurine, cycleanine, tetrandrine and berbamine were tested for their capacity to suppress hepatic injury and production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice primed with bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG). When
Osteosarcoma is the most common malignant bone tumor in children and young adults, and it has a survival rate of only 60% with current cytotoxic chemotherapy combined with aggressive surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the berbamine derivative 2-methylbenzoyl
