Berberine (BBR) is a natural isoquinoline alkaloid, which is used in traditional medicine for its anti-microbial, anti-protozoal, anti-diarrhoeal activities. Berberine interacts with DNA and displays anti-cancer activities, yet its effects on cellular DNA repair and on synthetic treatments with chemotherapeutic drugs remain unclear.
