General description
Berberine Chloride form or Natural Yellow 18, is also known as 5,6-dihydro-9,10-dimethoxybenzo(g)-1,3-benzodioxolo (5,6-a) quinolizinium is a benzyl tetra isoquinoline plant alkaloid. Berberine contains a quaternary base and is commercially available in berberine chloride form.
Application
Berberine Chloride is a fluorescent stain used to stain heparin in mast cells. Berberine upregulates the expression of Pgp in hepatoma cells.
Fluorescent stain for heparin in mast cells
Biochem/physiol Actions
An alkaloid with weak antibiotic properties. Substrate for MDR efflux pumps. Antimicrobial activities of berberine is potentiated by the MDR inhibitor 5´-methoxyhydnocarpin (5´-MHC). Berberine upregulates the expression of Pgp in hepatoma cells. Treatment with berberine potentially results in the reduced accumulation of chemotherapeutic drugs.

Conjugation of the NorA substrate berberine and the NorA inhibitor 5-nitro-2-phenyl-1H-indole via a methylene ether linking group gave the 13-substituted berberine-NorA inhibitor hybrid, 3. A series of simpler arylmethyl ether hybrid structures were also synthesized. The hybrid 3 showed excellent
