Cepharanthine BiologicalActivity

Description	Cepharanthine, an alkaloid derived from Stephania cepharantha Hayata, with possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidative activities[1][2][3]. Cepharanthine attenuates muscle and kidney injuries induced by limb ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)[3]. Cepharanthine induces autophagy, apoptosis and cell cycle arrest in breast cancer cells[4]. Cepharanthine inhibits the HIV-1 entry process by reducing plasma membrane fluidity[5].
