Abstract: In the present study, in vitro enzyme inhibitory studies on cinchonidine (1), cinchonine (2), quinine (3),
noscapine (narcotine, 4) and santonine (5) were carried out.
Noscapine hydrochloride disrupts the mitotic spindle in mammalian cells and induces aneuploidy as well as polyploidy in cultured human lymphocytes.
In the other parts of the world, the main ingredient of crack is cocaine, but in Iran it is heroin which may also contain morphine, caffeine, codeine,
noscapine, papaverine, dextromethorphan, and acetyl codeine or corticosteroids in varying amounts.
Recently, anticancer activity of
noscapine, an opioid alkaloid in combination with cisplatin in human nonsmall cell lung cancer, in vitro and in vivo, in murine xenograft model was reported [74].
