Lupanine - CAS 550-90-3

Lupanine ((+) -Lupanine), a naturally occurring quinolizidine alkaloid, potently affinity and activates nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) (Ki=500 nM), and shows significant neuroprotection against soluble amyloid β-oligomers (SO-Aβ) toxicity in cellular models in association with the anti-apoptotic PI3K/ Akt/Bcl-2 signaling pathway with anti-Alzheimer's disease potential. Improves glucose homeostasis by affecting KATP channels and enhancing insulin secretion with therapeutic potential for type 2 diabetes.
