Lycorine has a minor effect on PNT1A cell proliferation, as well as a cyclic inhibitory effect on cell proliferation on the four PCa cell lines mentioned above, with an IC50 range of 5 μM to 10 μM [1]. In order to control or safeguard SREBF in the endoplasmic reticulum, SCAP (SREBF molecular chaperone), an endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi transporter, transforms structurally by creating a complex with INSIG1 (insulin-inducible gene) 1)[2]. In a dose- and time-dependent way, Lycorine (5-40 μM; 16) considerably reduces SREBF activity (up to -70%) without having overt effects in cells. Lycorine (10-20 μM; 2-16 hours). Cytotoxicity [2]. decreases in HL-7702 cells the amounts of mature SREBF1 and SREBF2 proteins [2]. ABCG5 and ABCG8 are two NR1H3 target genes that are not affected by lycorine (20 μM; 16 hours) or NR1H3 transcription activation. Sterol Forwarding activity for NR1H3 is activated [1]. Treatment with lycorine (0-25 μM; 48 hours) markedly and dose-dependently suppressed the expression of vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin and marginally decreased the expression of Sema4D in C8161 cells. The VE-cadherin protein level in C8161 cells was dramatically lowered by the expression of the other 6 genes after 48 hours of treatment with Lycorine (0-25 μM) [3].

Metabolism / Metabolites
Paraoxonase (PON1) is a key enzyme in the metabolism of organophosphates. PON1 can inactivate some organophosphates through hydrolysis. PON1 hydrolyzes the active metabolites in several organophosphates insecticides as well as, nerve agents such as soman, sarin, and VX. The presence of PON1 polymorphisms causes there to be different enzyme levels and catalytic efficiency of this esterase, which in turn suggests that different individuals may be more susceptible to the toxic effect of OP exposure. |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity Summary
Lycorine is a cholinesterase or acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. A cholinesterase inhibitor (or 'anticholinesterase') suppresses the action of acetylcholinesterase. Because of its essential function, chemicals that interfere with the action of acetylcholinesterase are potent neurotoxins, causing excessive salivation and eye-watering in low doses, followed by muscle spasms and ultimately death. Nerve gases and many substances used in insecticides have been shown to act by binding a serine in the active site of acetylcholine esterase, inhibiting the enzyme completely. Acetylcholine esterase breaks down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is released at nerve and muscle junctions, in order to allow the muscle or organ to relax. The result of acetylcholine esterase inhibition is that acetylcholine builds up and continues to act so that any nerve impulses are continually transmitted and muscle contractions do not stop. Among the most common acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are phosphorus-based compounds, which are designed to bind to the active site of the enzyme. The structural requirements are a phosphorus atom bearing two lipophilic groups, a leaving group (such as a halide or thiocyanate), and a terminal oxygen. |

| Additional Infomation |
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 a protein synthesis inhibitor, an antimalarial, a plant metabolite and an anticoronaviral agent. It derives from a hydride of a galanthan.
Lycorine has been reported in Crinum moorei, Clivia nobilis, and other organisms with data available. Lycorine is a toxic crystalline alkaloid found in various Amaryllidaceae species, such as the cultivated bush lily (Clivia miniata), surprise lilies (Lycoris), and daffodils (Narcissus). It may be highly poisonous, or even lethal, when ingested in certain quantities. Symptoms of lycorine toxicity are vomiting, diarrhea, and convulsions. Lycorine, definition at mercksource.com Regardless, it is sometimes used medicinally, a reason why some groups may harvest the very popular Clivia miniata.
