Abstract
Oxoisoaporphine alkaloids are a family of oxoisoquinoline-derived alkaloids that were first isolated from the rhizome of Menispermum dauricum DC. (Menispermaceae). It has been demonstrated that oxoisoaporphine alkaloids possess various biological properties, such as cholinesterase and β-amyloid inhibition, acting as a topoisomerase intercalator, monoamine oxidase A inhibition, and are expected to become anti-Alzheimer's disease, anticancer, and antidepressant drugs. This review provides an overview of natural sources, synthetic routes, bioactivities, structure-function relationship, and modification investigations into oxoisoaporphine alkaloids, with the aim of providing references to the structure-activity relationships for the design and development of oxoisoaporphine derivatives with higher efficacy and therapeutic potential.
