Hydrastine is a selective competitive inhibitor of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), inhibiting dopamine biosynthesis with an IC50 of 20.7 μM in PC12 cells. It also acts as an inhibitor of the organic cation transporter OCT1 with an IC50 of 6.6 μM. Hydrastine may induce neuronal toxicity through mitochondrial dysfunction and can exacerbate cell apoptosis when combined with L-DOPA, making it suitable for studying Parkinson's disease-related dopaminergic neuronal damage.
