Phytochemical Name : Lucidimine B

Properties Information
PhytoCAT-ID PhytoCAT-1262
Phytochemical name or plant extracts Lucidimine B
PMID 30023870
Literature evidence The former alkaloid arrested the MCF-7 cell cycle in the S phase by inducing DNA fragmentation, hence reducing the mitochondrial membrane potential.

Gene or Protein evidence NA
Target pathways Loss of MMP is considered as a pathway for apoptosis, and increase of MMP loss could lead to the activation of apoptosis-inducing factors from mitochondria, which promotes apoptosis by inactivating inhibitors of apoptosis proteins.
IC50 NA
Potency lucidimine B exhibited antiproliferative properties toward MCF-7 cells (an EC50 value of 0.27 ± 0.02 μmol/mL).
Cell line/ mice model MCF-7
Additional information  Lucidimine B could induce DNA fragmentation and impact cell cycle progression at the S phase.
