Mucuna pruriens Detoxification through Ensiling

2008
Mucuna pruriens is grown for food and feed despite its L-Dopa concentration (2-6% by wt), which is toxic to monogastrics. The aim of this study was to determine if the L-Dopa concentration of Mucuna could be reduced by ensiling. The objective of Experiment 1 was to examine how long it takes to decrease the pH of ensiled Mucuna to 4.5.

Production of L-DOPA from cell suspension culture of Mucuna pruriens f. pruriens

Plant Cell Reports, 1994
Production of L-DOPA was studied in cell suspension culture of Mucuna pruriens f. pruriens. Suspension culture was established in MSI medium composed of half concentration of Murashige and Skoog's salts and 2% sucrose. A two-stage cell suspension culture was developed for enhanced accumulation of L-DOPA.

Neuroprotective effects of the antiparkinson drug Mucuna pruriens

Phytotherapy Research, 2004
AbstractMucuna pruriens possesses significantly higher antiparkinson activity compared with levodopa in the 6‐hydroxydopamine (6‐OHDA) lesioned rat model of Parkinson's disease. The present study evaluated the neurorestorative effect of Mucuna pruriens cotyledon powder on the nigrostriatal tract of 6‐OHDA lesioned rats.
