| Common Name | (R)-Higenamine |
|---|
| Description | (R)-Higenamine, also known as norcoclaurine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzylisoquinolines. These are organic compounds containing an isoquinoline to which a benzyl group is attached (R)-Higenamine is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa) (R)-Higenamine is a sweet, fruity, and milky tasting compound. Outside of the human body, (R)-Higenamine has been detected, but not quantified in, custard apples and opium poppies. This could make (R)-higenamine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. (R)-Higenamine is found in Aconitum japonicum, Argemone mexicana, Asarum sieboldii, Gnetum parvifolium , Macleaya cordata, Nelumbo nucifera, Phoebe chekiangensis and Tinospora crispa . Higenamine is under investigation in clinical trial NCT01451229 (Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Higenamine in Chinese Healthy Subjects). |
