摘要
Nitidine chloride (NC), a quaternary ammonium alkaloid, exhibits multiple biological activities, including antimalarial, antifungal, and antiangiogenesis. Recently, NC has been characterized to perform antitumor activity in a variety of malignancies. NC has been identified to suppress cell proliferation, stimulate apoptosis, and induce cell cycle arrest, retard migration, invasion and metastasis. Moreover, NC is reported to sensitize cancer cells to chemotherapeutic drugs. In this review article, we describe the functions of NC in human cancers and discuss the molecular insight into NC-involved antitumor feature. This review article will stimulate the deeper investigation for using NC as a potent agent for the management of cancer patients.
