Biochem/physiol Actions

Hirsutine is a brain penetrant alkaloid from Uncaria rhynchophylla that exhibit anti-cancer, cardioprotective, anti-hypertensive, and anti-arrhythmic activities. It appears that hirsutine induces apoptosis in lung cancer cells through opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). Hirsutine exhibit potent anti-dengue virus activity.

Hirsutine extracted from Uncaria rhynchophylla has been shown to exhibit anti-cancer activity. However, the molecular mechanism by which hirsutine exhibits anti-lung cancer activity remains unclear. In the present study, we showed that hirsutine induces apoptosis in human lung cancer cells
