Canadine, also known as (S)-tetrahydroberberine and xanthopuccine, is a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid (BIA), of the protoberberine structural subgroup, and is present in many plants from the family Papaveraceae, such as Corydalis yanhusuo and C. turtschaninovii .

Contents

Biosynthesis

Metabolically, (S)-canadine is derived from (S)-reticuline, a pivotal intermediate in the biosynthesis of numerous BIA structural subgroups, through three enzymatic steps: 1) berberine bridge enzyme to (S)-scoulerine; 2) (S)-scoulerine 9-O-methyltransferase to (S)-tetrahydrocolumbamine; and 3) (S)-canadine synthase/CYP719A21 to (S)-canadine. [1]

(S)-Canadine is the immediate metabolic precursor of berberine, which is produced through the action of the enzyme tetrahydroberberine oxidase. [1]

It is also an intermediate in the biosynthesis of noscapine, which is likewise a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid, but of the phthalideisoquinoline structural subgroup. [2] [3]

(S)-Canadine, berberine, palmatine, and hydrastine are the major alkaloids present in goldenseal. [4] In Corydalis cava, the enzyme berberine reductase converts berberine back to canadine but as the (R) enantiomer of the product. [5]

This type of inversion of stereochemistry allows both enantiomers of some alkaloids to be present in this species. [6]

Effects

A number of in vitro effects of (S)-canadine have been reported. It stimulates myogenesis and inhibits muscle protein degradation. [7] (S)-Canadine blocks K(ATP) channels in dopamine neurons. [8] [9] (S)-Canadine has displayed antioxidant activity: though it lacked any demonstrable cytotoxic effect in three unique cell cultures, it was observed to possess antioxidant activity against free radical-induced oxidative injury. [10] [11] (S)-Canadine can block voltage-dependent calcium channels, but at a level significantly lower than that of verapamil. [12]

Canadine is also used in the synthesis of CPU 86017 (a novel Class III antiarrhythmic agent with multiple actions at ion channels). [13]
