Functions

One of the active ingredients of ipecac root extract, used as an emetic. Induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells via inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Inhibits Zika and Ebola virus in vitro and in vivo, targeting viral entry and replication by inhibiting viral RNA polymerase and host lysosomal function. Also inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication in cells (EC50 for viral load reduction is 0.46 μM). A useful agent for inhibiting protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells by virtue of its inhibition of the ribosome 40S subunit.

 

Application Procedures

First dissolved in Water (up to 100 mg/ml), then diluted to aqueous buffer. Solutions in water may be stored at -20°C for up to 3 months.
