N-caffeoylputrescine is a N-substituted putrescine. It is a conjugate base of a N-caffeoylputrescinium(1+). N-Caffeoylputrescine is a natural product found in Iochroma cyaneum, Solanum tuberosum, and Selaginella moellendorffii. Caffeoylputrescine is an analog of putrescine, a polyamine that is naturally found in urine. It has been shown to have potent anticancer properties by inducing apoptosis in cancer cells. Caffeoylputrescine inhibits the activity of kinases, which are enzymes that play a key role in cell growth and division. This inhibition leads to decreased tumor growth and increased cancer cell death. Additionally, caffeoylputrescine has been shown to enhance the activity of nifedipine, a calcium channel blocker commonly used for hypertension treatment. This compound also acts as a protein kinase inhibitor and may be useful in the development of new anticancer drugs for humans.
