Biological Activity

[Description]:

Picrasidine I is an anti-inflammatory and anti-osteoclastogenic dimeric alkaloid that can be isolated from Picrasma quassioides. Picrasidine I inducs cell cycle arrest, and triggers cell Apoptosis by downregulats ERK and Akt pathways. Picrasidine I inhibits the activation of MAPKs, NF-κB and ROS generation, and suppresses the expression of c-Fos and NFATc1[1][2].
