  • Product Description

  • Seller Information

  • Description
    1-Benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (commonly abbreviated as 1BnTIQ; CAS 19716-56-4) functions primarily as an endogenous neurotoxin, a neurological research probe, and a key structural scaffold for alkaloid synthesis. 
    Unlike many other plant-derived tetrahydroisoquinolines that offer therapeutic benefits, 1BnTIQ is widely recognized in biochemistry as a crucial pathological marker linked to the etiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). 
    Core Functions and Research Applications
    • Endogenous Parkinsonism-Inducing Toxin: In neurotoxicology, 1BnTIQ serves as an experimental model compound for idiopathic Parkinson's disease. It is found naturally in human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and clinical data shows its concentration spikes three times higher in PD patients than in healthy controls. Chronic administration of 1BnTIQ to animal models successfully replicates parkinsonian-like behavioral deficits and dopaminergic motor symptoms.
    • Inducer of Dopaminergic Cell Apoptosis: In cellular assays, it functions by entering dopaminergic neurons via the dopamine transporter (DAT). Once inside, it triggers a powerful neurotoxic cascade: it upregulates pro-apoptotic proteins (Bax), suppresses anti-apoptotic defenses (Bcl-xl), and activates cleaved caspase-3 pathways, ultimately forcing progressive cell death. [1]
    • Disruption of Dopamine Regulation and L-DOPA Therapy: In pharmacodynamics, 1BnTIQ severely disrupts central neurotransmitter pathways. It impairs natural dopamine release, potentiates monoamine oxidase (MAO)-dependent dopamine oxidation, and directly interferes with L-DOPA therapy. It functions as a risk marker because elevated levels block the therapeutic neurochemical responses of standard anti-Parkinson medications.
    • Biosynthetic Precursor for Plant Alkaloids: In plant biology and biotechnology, it acts as a primary substrate for enzymes like 1-benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline N-methyltransferase. This reaction is a foundational step in the secondary metabolic pathway that synthesizes complex, biologically active isoquinoline alkaloids within various plant cell cultures.
    • Chiral Scaffold for Multidrug Resistance (MDR) Modulators: In medicinal chemistry, the core 1-benzyl-tetrahydroisoquinoline skeleton is used as a synthetic starting point to design novel anticancer agents. Certain modified chemical derivatives function as highly effective P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors, working to reverse chemotherapy resistance in malignant cell lines.
