Mulberroside C
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Mulberroside C is one of the main bioactive components in white mulberry (Morus alba L.). Mulberroside C exhibits antiplatelet, antiviral and neutrophil-regulating activities, and binds to EV-A71 VP1 with a Kd value of 1.289 nM. Mulberroside C reduces the phosphorylation level of ERK, promotes the phosphorylation of IP3RI at the Ser1756 site, and decreases calcium influx and calcium mobilization. Mulberroside C inhibits the expression of P-selectin (P-selectin). Mulberroside C upregulates the cyclic nucleotide signaling pathway in human platelets. Mulberroside C binds to IL-23R, upregulates the expression of G-CSF, GM-CSF and RASGRP1, and activates the RAS/ERK signaling pathway. Mulberroside C promotes neutrophil maturation, accelerates the recovery of leukopenia, and enhances the antibacterial activity of neutrophils. Mulberroside C inhibits the replication of hepatitis C virus in replicon cells. Mulberroside C prevents the uncoating and genome release of EV-A71, and inhibits the synthesis of viral proteins and RNA. Mulberroside C can be used in studies related to thrombosis-mediated cardiovascular diseases, chemotherapy- and radiotherapy-induced leukopenia, hepatitis C virus infection, and hand, foot and mouth disease.
