Research Progress on the Structural Modification and Antitumor Activity of Sinomenine Derivatives

Yixuan Wang, Fangyuan Li, Jiaxin Huang

Abstract


Sinomenine, a major active component of the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Sinomenium acutum, is an isoquinoline alkaloid
with a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities and great potential as a lead compound. Historically, research on its derivatives has primarily focused on anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. However, in recent years, its potential value in the field of antitumor
therapy has garnered increasing attention. This paper focuses on the chemical modification strategies of the core structure (A/B/C rings) of
sinomenine, and systematically reviews the progress in structural optimization of sinomenine derivatives over the past five years. Special emphasis is placed on their antitumor pharmacological activities and related mechanisms of action. The aim is to provide a theoretical basis and
design ideas for the development of novel antitumor drugs based on the sinomenine scaffold.

Keywords
