Hydrastine
Hydrastine ((-) -β-Hydrastine; (1R,9S) -β-Hydrastine) is a selective competitive inhibitor of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), inhibiting dopamine biosynthesis (IC50=20.7 μM, PC12 cells) . Hydrastine also inhibits the organic cation transporter OCT1 (IC50=6.6 μM) . Hydrastine may cause neuronal toxicity through mitochondrial dysfunction rather than oxidative stress damage, and can aggravate cell apoptosis when combined with L-DOPA. Hydrastine can be used to study Parkinson's disease-related dopaminergic neuronal damage[1][2].
