Boldine
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Boldine is an aporphine alkaloid telomerase (telomerase) inhibitor (IC50 of 0.17 μM for TERT) and a pannexin/connexin hemichannel blocker, with oral activity and blood-brain barrier permeability. Boldine inhibits telomerase activity through direct interaction with the telomerase ribonucleoprotein and non-competitive binding near the TERT active site, and downregulates hTERT mRNA while shifting alternative splicing toward non-functional transcripts. Boldine blocks Panx1, Cx43, Cx26, and Cx30 hemichannels as well as P2X7 receptor-mediated calcium influx. Boldine exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and cytotoxic activities by scavenging ROS, inhibiting NFκB, dephosphorylating SGK1, and reducing TNF-alpha levels. Boldine can be used in research on breast cancer, Alzheimer's disease, glioblastoma, diabetes, and spinal cord injury.
