Harman
Harman is an indole alkaloid fundamental parent with a structure of 9H-beta-carboline carrying a methyl substituent at C-1. It has been isolated from the bark of Sickingia rubra, Symplocus racemosa, Passiflora incarnata, Peganum harmala, Banisteriopsis caapi and Tribulus terrestris, as well as from tobacco smoke. It is a specific, reversible inhibitor of monoamine oxidase A. It has a role as an anti-HIV agent, a plant metabolite and an EC 1.4.3.4 (monoamine oxidase) inhibitor. It is an indole alkaloid, an indole alkaloid fundamental parent and a harmala alkaloid.
Harman is a natural product found in Ophiopogon, Strychnos johnsonii, and other organisms with data available.

Ajmaline
Ajmaline, also known as (+)-ajmaline, is a member of the class of compounds known as ajmaline-sarpagine alkaloids. Ajmaline-sarpagine alkaloids are organic compounds containing either of the ajmalan, sarpagan skeleton, or derivative thereof. The Sarpagine (Akuammidine) group, based on the sarpagan nucleus, arises from bond formation between C-16 and C-5 of the corynantheine precursor. Ajmaline alkaloids are based on a 17,19-secoyohimban skeleton (oxayohimban) which is invariably present as an ether. Ajmaline is slightly soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Ajmaline can be synthesized from ajmalan. Ajmaline is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, vinorine, norajmaline, and 17-O-acetylajmaline. Ajmaline can be found in a number of food items such as soursop, jews ear, small-leaf linden, and soft-necked garlic, which makes ajmaline a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Ajmaline can be found primarily in blood and urine. Ajmaline is a drug which is used for use as an antiarrhythmic agent. The compound was first isolated by Salimuzzaman Siddiqui in 1931 from the roots of Rauvolfia serpentina. He named it ajmaline, after Hakim Ajmal Khan, one of the most illustrious practitioners of Unani medicine in South Asia. Ajmaline can be found in most species of the Rauvolfia genus as well as Catharanthus roseus. In addition to Southeast Asia, Rauvolfia species have also been found in tropical regions of India, Africa, South America, and some oceanic islands. Other indole alkaloids found in Rauvolfia include reserpine, ajmalicine, serpentine, corynanthine, and yohimbine. While 86 alkaloids have been discovered throughout Rauvolfia vomitoria, ajmaline is mainly isolated from the stem bark and roots of the plant . The class I antiarrhythmic agents interfere with the sodium channel. A class IA agent lengthens the action potential (right shift) which brings about improvement in abnormal heart rhythms. This drug in particular has a high affinity for the Nav 1.5 sodium channel (DrugBank). An alkaloid found in the root of Rauwolfia serpentina, among other plant sources. It is a class Ia antiarrhythmic agent that apparently acts by changing the shape and threshold of cardiac action potentials. Ajmaline produces potent sodium channel blocking effects and a very short half-life which makes it a very useful drug for acute intravenous treatments. The drug has been very popular in some countries for the treatment of atrial fibrillation in patients with the Wolff Parkinson White syndrome and in well tolerated monomorphic ventricular tachycardias. It has also been used for many years as a drug to challenge the conduction system of the heart in cases of bundle branch block and syncope. In these cases, abnormal prolongation of the HV interval has been taken as a proof for infrahisian conduction defects tributary for permanent pacemaker implantation.

Ajmaline blocks HERG currents with an IC50 of 1 μM in HEK cells and 42.3 μM in Xenopus oocytes. Ajmaline can be used for the research of the ventricular tachyarrhythmia[1][2].
