Chemical compound
Palmatine is a protoberberine alkaloid found in several plants including Coptis Chinensis [ 1] (Rhizoma coptidis, chinese goldthread), Corydalis yanhusuo ,[ 2] Tinospora cordifolia [ 3] (gurjo, heart-leaved moonseed), Tinospora sagittata ,[ 4] Phellodendron amurense [ 5] (amur cork tree), and Stephania yunnanensis .[ 6]
It is the major component of the protoberberine extract from Enantia chlorantha .[ 7] [better source needed ]
It has been studied for its potential use in the treatment of jaundice , dysentery , hypertension , inflammation , and liver-related diseases.[ 8] This compound also has weak in vitro activity against flavivirus .[ 9]
Pharmacology
Neuroprotective activity
Palmatine can be used to treat Alzheimer’s disease, mainly by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and neuraminidase-1 (NA-1). It was found, that the positively charged nitrogen on palmatine binds in the gorge of active sire of AChE.[ 10]
Research show that palmatine had antidepressant effect. It was achieved by regulating brain catalase levels, monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A) activity, lipid peroxidation, plasma nitrite and corticosterone levels.[ 11]
Regulating blood lipid activity
Palmatine achieved hypoglycemic effects by inducing insulin release and insulin-mimicking activity.[ 12] [ 13] In addition, studies found that palmatine also inhibited the activity of lens aldose reductase,[ 14] sucrase and maltase.[ 15] In vivo research showed that palmatine reduced serum total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides (TG) and increased serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.[ 16]
Anticancer activity
Research showed that palmatine had broad anti-cancer activity. Palmatine had significant growth inhibitory effects on seven human cancer cell lines: 7701QGY, SMMC7721, HepG2, CEM, CEM/VCR, K III and Lewis.[ 17] In addition, palmatine also had anti-cancer activity on MCF-7, U251, KB,[ 18] CHOK-1, HT-29 and SiHacell lines.[ 19] Palmatine induced apoptosis in human skin epithelial carcinoma cells (A431) in a concentration- and time-dependent manner via damaging severely to DNA and inhibiting the activity of Bcl-2 protein.[ 20] [ 21] [ 22] In addition, palmatine can inhibit the proliferation and infiltration of cancer cells.
Antibacterial and antiviral activity
Palmitine has inhibitory effect on Gram-positive bacteria which is significantly stronger than that on Gram-negative bacteria,[ 23] and 9-O-substituted palmatine derivatives exhibited stronger antibacterial activity.[ 24] [ 25]
Anti-inflammatory activity
Studies have shown that palmatine can decrease the production of pro-inflammatory factors and increase the production of anti-inflammatory factors.[ 26]
Other pharmacological activity
Studies have shown that palmatine chave antioxidant activity,[ 27] [ 28] had a protective effect on gastric ulcer,[ 29] derivatives of palmatine were more effective against ulcerative colitis, including low cytotoxicity to intestinal epithelial cells.[ 30] In addition, palmatine might have the antiarrhythmic effect,[ 31] and provideprotection from myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.[ 32]
Toxicity
A large number of studies have shown that palmatine has a complex effect on the metabolism of enzymes in the liver, and that palmatine has significant DNA toxicity.[ 33] However, some 9-O-substituted palmatine derivatives exhibited less toxic than palmatine.[ 34] In addition, palmatine had higher affinity to nucleic acids than serum proteins, which make them suitable candidates for delivery by serum proteins.[ 35]
