Prescribing pattern of anti-Parkinson drugs in Japan: a trend analysis from 2005 to 2010. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 OBJECTIVE:Therapeutic options for Parkinson's disease mainly consist of L-dopa and dopamine agonists. However, in Japan, the product labeling of the ergot dopamine agonists, cabergoline and pergolide, was revised in April 2007 due to the risk of ...

Pd-catalyzed enantioselective aerobic oxidation of secondary alcohols: Applications to the total synthesis of alkaloids [PDF]
, 2008 Enantioselective syntheses of the alkaloids (-)-aurantioclavine, (+)-amurensinine, (-)-lobeline, and (-)- and (+)-sedamine are described. The syntheses demonstrate the effectiveness of the Pd-catalyzed asymmetric oxidation of secondary alcohols in ...

Ergot Alkaloids on Cereals and Seeds: Analytical Methods, Occurrence, and Future Perspectives
Molecules, 2023 Ergot alkaloids are secondary metabolites resulting from fungi of the genus Claviceps that have proven to be highly toxic. These mycotoxins commonly infect cereal crops such as wheat, rye, barley, and oats.

Aptamer-based extraction of ergot alkaloids from ergot contaminated rye feed [PDF]
, 2014 Ergot alkaloids are mycotoxins which can be found in food based on cereal-crops, due to a contamination of plants by fungi of the genus Claviceps. The ingestion of ergot contaminated cereal crops can lead to a severe poisoning known as ergotism. For food

Fate of Ergot Alkaloids during Laboratory Scale Durum Processing and Pasta Production
Toxins, 2019 The fate of ergot alkaloids during the milling of durum and subsequent production and cooking of pasta was examined. Durum samples containing varying amounts of ergot sclerotia (0.01–0.1% by mass) were milled, and all milling product was analyzed ...

Introduction to the Toxins Special Issue on Ergot Alkaloids
Toxins, 2015 Ergot alkaloids are among the most relevant natural products in the history of toxins and pharmaceuticals. Until the late 20th century, human and livestock exposure to ergot alkaloids was primarily through ingestion of “ergots,” which are spur-shaped or ...

Ergot alkaloids contribute to virulence in an insect model of invasive aspergillosis
Scientific Reports, 2017 Neosartorya fumigata (Aspergillus fumigatus) is the most common cause of invasive aspergillosis, a frequently fatal lung disease primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals. This opportunistic fungal pathogen produces several classes of specialised

Ciência Rural, 2008 The occurrence of the alditol oligosaccharides in the Claviceps afriana honeydew is partly as a rational expression of the pathogen's selective nutritive metabolism of the sucrose supplied by the host plant. The experiments were carried out in laboratory
