Bioactivity | Dihydrochelerythrine is a natural compound isolated from Corydalis yanhusuo; has antifungal activity.IC50 value:Target: in vitro: Dihydrochelerythrine showed the highest antifungal activity against B. cinerea Pers, with 98.32% mycelial growth inhibition at 50 μg/mL. Dihydrochelerythrine inhibited spore germination in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner [1]. Dihydrochelerythrine appeared to be less cytotoxic since the viability of cells exposed to 20 microM dihydrochelerythrine for 24h was reduced only to 53%. A dose-dependent induction of apoptosis and necrosis by chelerythrine and dihydrochelerythrine was confirmed by annexin V/propidium iodide dual staining flow cytometry [2]. Dihydrochelerythrine (4) exhibited strong activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus SK1 and moderate activity against Escherichia coli TISTR 780 with MIC values of 8 and 16 μg/mL, respectively [3]. | ||||||||||||
