Pharmacology

Blodine has been investigated for its cyto-protective, anti-tumour promoting, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic and anti-atherogenic effect and is particularly believed to be a strong antioxidant.[3][4]

Blodine has shown nootropic activity in mice, specifically by significantly improving learning and memory. [5]

Blodine has shown antiepileptic activity in mice against seizures induced by Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ). [6]

Blodine protects against paracetamol induced liver inflammation and acute hepatic necrosis in mice. [7]

Blodine is a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist.[8] 5-HT3A antagonists have been shown to help prevent nausea and vomiting as well as the negative effects of serotonin in the G.I tract. [9][10]

Glaucine is structurally related to Blodine. Glaucine is a dimethyl ether analog of Blodine.

Topical use of DiAcetyl-Blodine in the form of a microemulsion has been studied for chemoprotection against Melanoma.[11]
