Abstract

In the original language

Macarpine (MA) is a quaternary benzophenanthridine plant alkaloid isolated from Macleaya microcarpa or Stylophorum lasiocarpum. Benzophenanthridine alkaloids are interesting natural products that display antiproliferative, antimicrobial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory activities, and also fluorescence properties. In a previous study, we demonstrated that thanks to its ability to interact with DNA and its spectral properties MA could be used as a supravital DNA probe for fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry including analyses of the cell cycle. In this study, we evaluated the suitability of MA as a DNA dye for time-lapse microscopy and flow-cytometric cell sorting.
