Description
Lycorine is a natural alkaloid extracted from the Amaryllidaceae plant. Lycorine is a potent and orally active SCAP inhibitor with a Kd value 15.24 nM. Lycorine downregulates the SCAP protein level without changing its transcription[2]. Lycorine is also a melanoma vasculogenic inhibitor[3]. Lycorine can be used for the study of prostate cancer and metabolic diseases[2].

Chemical Information

Lycorine

Lycorine is an indolizidine alkaloid that is 3,12-didehydrogalanthan substituted by hydroxy groups at positions and 2 and a methylenedioxy group across positions 9 and 10. Isolated from Crinum asiaticum, it has been shown to exhibit antimalarial activity. It has a role as an anticoronaviral agent, an antimalarial, a protein synthesis inhibitor and a plant metabolite. It derives from a hydride of a galanthan.
