NCIt definition : A natural, bis-benzylisoquinoline alkaloid isolated from the root of the plant Radix
stephania tetrandrae. Tetrandrine non-selectively inhibits calcium channel activity
and induces G1 blockade of the G1 phase of the cell cycle and apoptosis in various
cell types, resulting in immunosuppressive, anti-proliferative and free radical scavenging
effects. This agent also increases glucose utilization by enhancing hepatocyte glycogen
synthesis, resulting in the lowering of plasma glucose. (NCI04);
