| Application: | Matrine has been used: • to study its antioxidant and protective effect on doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity in mice model and H9C2 cells • as a chemotherapeutic agent to test its inhibitory effect on the growth of human glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells, and ovarian cancer cells • to study its effect on mitochondrial fission and its anti-tumor functionality in HepG2 cells • as a necroptosis inducer in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) cell lines |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Matrine is a potent therapeutic agent with various pharmacological like anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, anti-fibrotic, anti-inflammatory properties. It is a macropinocytosis inducer and decreases the cellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) level. Matrine may also serve as an effective sedative agent. It serves as an anti-inflammatory agent in 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced intestinal inflammation in mice. It functions to reverse the Warburg effect and suppress the growth of human colon cancer cells. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Matrine is an alkaloid that is one of the major components in the root of the saphoro plant. Matrine has been studied for possible antiviral efficacy against hepatitis B and C, as well as impact against some skin diseases and forms of cancer. |
| General description: | Matrine (MT) or Sophocarpidine is a naturally occurring bioactive compound, extracted from traditional Chinese herbs like Sophora flavescens and Radix Sophorae tonkinensis. |
