Description：Mimosine, a tyrosine analog , can act as an antioxidant by its potent iron-binding activity. Mimosine is a known chelator of Fe(III). Mimosine induces apoptosis through metal ion chelation, mitochondrial activation and ROS production in human leukemic cells. Anti-cancer, antiinflammation.
In Vitro：Mimosine, a known chelator of Fe(III), may facilitate Fe(III) uptake in leucaena by serving as a phytosiderophore[2]. Mimosine, a bidentate iron-binding ligand, may also play a role in cellular translocation of iron within leucaena[2]. Mimosine is a toxic nonprotein amino acid that is a major constituent of the tropical legumesLeucaenaandMimosa[4]. Mimosine (400 μM), through iron chelation, reversibly blocks cell cycle progression in MDA-MB-453 human breast cancer cells[4]. Mimosine (400 μM) reduces DNA synthesis by greater than 90% of control within 4 hr of treatment, and suppresses total proline-directed protein kinase activity to less than 10% of control after 16 hr treatment[4].
In Vivo：Mimosine (30, and 60 mg/kg) decreases sperm concentration[5].
