(+)-(S)-Tylophorine is a a major alkaloid of Tylophora indica. More specifically, it belongs to phenanthroindolizidine class of alkaloids. It is an immunosuppressant that inhibits inflammation. In tumor cells, (+)-(S)-Tylophorine has shown antiproliferative activity and induction of apoptosis. It is believed to exert its anticancer effects through multiple mechanisms, including the inhibition of DNA synthesis, interference with signal transduction pathways, and disruption of mitochondrial function, leading to cell death.
