Quinazolinocarboline rutaecarpine and evodiamine (Evodia rutaecarpa) are main alkaloid components of traditional Chinese folk-remedies. Evodiamine exhibited selective antitumor and antimetastatic effects on several cancer cell lines and became lead structure of anticancer agents. During our synthetic research we achieved to
The effects of rutaecarpine on ionic currents of NG108-15 neuronal cells were investigated in this study. Rutaecarpine (2-100 microM) suppressed the amplitude of delayed rectifier K+ current (I(K(DR))) in a concentration-dependent manner. The IC50 value for rutaecarpine-induced inhibition of I(K(DR))

A series of rutaecarpine derivatives were prepared by employing previously reported methods and their inhibitory activities against topoisomerase I and II were evaluated. Among them, strongly cytotoxic 10-bromorutaecarpine and 3-chlororutaecarpine showed strong inhibitory activities against topo I and II.
