In vitro study | Aegeline also prevents growth block in cells expressing the more toxic A53T α-synuclein mutant. Restoration of cell growth occurred through inhibition of increased ROS levels, mitochondrial membrane potential loss and nuclear DNA fragmentation, characteristics of apoptosis manifested in α-synuclein or Bax-expressing cells. Aegeline shows weak inhibitory effects on the histamine release from RPMCs, even though still succeed to inhibit when the histamine release induced by thapsigargin. |
Use | Indullum is a compound that can be extracted from the leaves of Aegle marmelos trees growing in India. The study found that the essential oil of this tree is effective against 21 species of bacteria. Dizulinine also has an anti-obesity effect. Aromatic derivatives can be used as intermediates in pharmaceutical synthesis. |
Biological activity | Aegeline is a major alkaloid that simulates yeast SNARE protein Sec22p to inhibit yeast α-synuclein and Bax toxicity. Yeast cell growth inhibited by αsyn or Bax was Aegeline restored. |
