SEW06622 is a potent inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and beta-secretase-1 (BACE-1) and is a potential candidate for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

AChE/BChE/MAO-B-IN-1 is a reversible, non-time-dependent inhibitor of AChE, BChE and MAO-B that crosses the blood-brain barrier and exhibits inhibitory effects on hAChE, hBChE and hMAO-B with IC50s of 7.31, 0.56 and 26.1 μM, respectively. 1 had a neuroprotective effect and was not significantly cytotoxic.

Pitofenone hydrochloride (Pitophenone hydrochloride), a spasmolytic compound, inhibits the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity from bovine erythrocytes and from electric eel with Kis of 36 and 45 μM, respectively.

1. Epiberberine may be caused drug interactions based on CYP2D6 enzyme. 2. Epiberberine has anti-adipogenic effect is mediated by downregulation of the Raf/MEK1/ERK1/2 and AMPKα/Akt pathways during 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation. 3. Epiberberine, as the brightest FSA emitter among the alkaloids, can also serve as an efficient conformation probe for HTG DNA and discriminate the DNA G-quadruplex from the RNA counterpart.

Jatrorrhizine chloride (Neprotine chloride) is a potent and orally active uptake-2 transporter inhibitor. It exhibits a critical neuroprotective role in H2O2-induced apoptosis via inhibition of the MAPK pathway in HT22 hippocampal neurons.
