Arecoline is a natural alkaloid and is an effective constituent of Areca catechu L. (Arecaceae) with various pharmacological activities including effects on nervous, cardiovascular, digestive and endocrine systems and anti-parasitic effects. Antinociception of arecoline is mediated by the activation of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. It was found that this compound leads to oral submucosal fibrosis and oral cancer. Lung cancer is a severe type of carcinoma with high cell motility that is difficult to treat. As a result, further studies are needed to reduce or eliminate the toxicity of the compound before developing into a new drug.

In Vitro Use Guide

different concentrations of Arecoline treatment (10 µM, 20 µM, and 40 µM) significantly increased the cell migration ability in A549 and CL1-0 cells and promoted the formation of the filamentous actin (F-actin) cytoskeleton, which is a crucial element for cell migration.
