General Description |
A highly potent and selective oxysterol EBI2 (GPR183) agonist (Kd) = 450 pM in a saturation binding assay, and EC50 = 140 pM over EC50 = 2.1 nM for its enantiomer, 7β,25-OHC, in a GTP-γS binding assay). Dose-dependently suppresses forskolin-induced cAMP accumulation in an EBI2-expressing SK-N-MC/CRE-β-galactosidase cell line (IC50 = 2 nM), but not in control cells. Stimulates migration of LPS-activated spleen B-cells and anti-CD3/CD28-activated CD4+ T-cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, pharmacological inhibition of its biosynthesis in vivo by Clotrimazole, a CYP7B1inhibitor, promotes the migration of adoptively transferred pre-activated B cells to the T/B boundary, mimicking the phenotype of pre-activated B cells in EBI2-deficient mice. |
Biochem/physiol Actions |
An alkaloid with weak antibiotic properties. Substrate for MDR efflux pumps. Antimicrobial activities of berberine is potentiated by the MDR inhibitor 5′-methoxyhydnocarpin (5′-MHC). Berberine upregulates the expression of Pgp in hepatoma cells. Treatment with berberine potentially results in the reduced accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs. |
Safety Profile |
Poison by intraperitoneal route.Slightly toxic by ingestion. Mutation data reported. Whenheated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors of NOx andCl-. |
Purification Methods |
Berberine chloride crystallises from water to give the dihydrate. The anhydrous salt may be obtained by recrystallisation from EtOH/Et2O, wash the crystals with Et2O and dry them in a vacuum. The iodide has m 250o(dec) (from EtOH). [Perkin J Chem Soc 113 503 1918, Kametani et al. J Chem Soc(C) 2036 1969, Beilstein 27 I 515, 27 II 567.] |
