Cayman Sanguinarine (Chloride); Purity- Greater Than Or Equal To

Sanguinarine is a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid isolated from plants belonging to the family Papaveraceae.¹ It exhibits antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidant properties and demonstrates antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic effects in some cancer cell lines. Sanguinarine suppresses NF-κB activation by blocking the degradation of IκBα and sensitizes cancer cells to apoptosis by inducing ROS generation and activating TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand.² Furthermore, sanguinarine has been shown to reduce cancer cell metastasis though the inhibition of MMP-2 and MMP-9 activation and to exhibit antiangiogenic activity by downregulating VEGF-induced Akt activation.²
