  3. Sophoramine

Sophoramine ((-)-Sophoramine) is a prejunctional α2-adrenoceptor inhibitor that can be found in the seeds of Sophora alopecuroides. Sophoramine inhibits prejunctional α2-adrenoceptors to facilitate norepinephrine release from adrenergic nerves. Sophoramine shows cytotoxic activity against human cancer cells, positive inotropic activity, and activity in rodent arrhythmia models. Sophoramine can be used for the research of arrhythmias.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
