| Description | Lysicamine shows significant antioxidant capacity in the ORAC(FL) assay and it is active against S. epidermidis and C. dubliniensis, with MIC values in the range 12.5-100 microg mL(-1). Lysicamine has antimicrobial and anti-inflammation activity, the minimum inhibitory concentrations of the pour component (Streptococcus mutans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans and Candida albicans.) is less than 5mg/ml for all four microorganisms and the minimum concentration with anti-inflammation is 0.2mg/ml for both IL-8 and IL-6. Lysicamine has antileishmanial activity. It can significantly inhibit the proliferation of melanoma cells, it has antioxidative activity and chemopreventive activity in skin melanoma cells. |
