Diptocarpiline is a diterpene that is found in the bark of D. dasycarpa, a tree native to Southeast Asia. It has been shown to have anticonvulsant and analgesic properties, as well as anti-inflammatory effects. Daptocarpiline also has anticancer activity against leukemia cells in culture. This compound binds to the GABA receptor and inhibits the binding of GABA, which results in increased levels of this neurotransmitter in the brain. This leads to an increase in the frequency and amplitude of spontaneous inhibitory postsynaptic currents (sIPSCs) and an increase in the duration of action potentials (APs). The mechanism of anticancer activity is not completely understood, but it may be due to its ability to induce apoptosis by inhibiting protein synthesis or by inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS).
