Description |
Harmine Hydrochloride (Telepathine Hydrochloride) is a natural dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase (DYRK) inhibitor with anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities. Harmine has a high affinity of 5-HT2A serotonin receptor, with an Ki of 397 nM[1].

Target |
Ki: 397 nM (5-HT2A serotonin receptor)[1], DYRK1A[2]
|
In Vitro |
Harmine inhibits tau phosphorylation by DYRK1A by selected DANDYs, with an IC50 of 190 nM[2]. Harmine negatively regulates homologous recombination (HR) by interfering Rad51 recruitment, resulting in severe cytotoxicity in hepatoma cells. Furthermore, NHEJ inhibitor Nu7441 markedly sensitizes Hep3B cells to the anti-proliferative effects of Harmine[3].

In Vivo |
It is shown that brain water content is significantly increased in the TBI group. Treatment with Harmine significantly reduces the tissue water content at 1, 3 and 5 days, compared with the TBI group. Harmine treatment significantly reduces the escape latency at 3 and 5 days, compared with the TBI group. Post-TBI administration of Harmine significantly improves the motor function recovery of the rats at 1, 3 and 5 days following TBI, compared with the TBI group without Harmine treatment. The neuronal survival rate in the Harmine-treated group is significantly increased, compared with the TBI group. Administration of Harmine results in marked elevation in the expression of GLT-1, compared with the TBI group. The administration of Harmine significantly reduces the expression of caspase 3, compared with the TBI group[4].
