Genotoxic Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids — Mechanisms Leading to DNA Adduct Formation and Tumorigenicity

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2002
Plants that contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids are widely distributed in the world. Although pyrrolizidine alkaloids have been shown to be genotoxic and tumorigenic in experimental animals, the mechanisms of actions have not been fully understood.

Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids

2018
Naturally occurring pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are isolated from plants and other sources. The interest of the scientific community in these compounds owes itself to their high toxicity and biological activity, as well as to the challenge of synthesizing their pyrrolizidine scaffold.

Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids From Echium glomeratum (Boraginaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesPhytochemistry, 2008
The methanolic extract of the whole plant of Echium glomeratum Poir. (Boraginaceae) has afforded five pyrrolizidine alkaloids, three that were (7S, 8R)-petranine (1), (7S, 8S)-petranine (2), and (7R, 8R)-petranine (3a) or (7R, 8S)-petranine (3b ...

Toxicity of Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids

Nature, 1968
A new class of metabolite, with a pyrrole-like structure, has been demonstrated in the tissues of animals poisoned by pyrrolizidine alkaloids. There is some correlation between the degree of hepato-toxicity and the amount of “pyrrole” found in the liver.

The Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids

1982
Previous chapters in this series by Warren appeared in 1955 (310) and 1966 (311). Since then an authoritative book by Bull, Culvenor, and Dick, on the chemistry and pharmacology of pyrrolizidine alkaloids has been published (60). Comprehensive reviews on the alkaloids (312), their chemotaxonomic significance (77), and general pyrrolizidine chemistry ...

The Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids. II

1966
Ten years have elapsed since the pyrrolizidine alkaloids were reviewed in this series (387), and it is a not much shorter period since they formed the subject of an excellent account by Leonard (329) and a masterly summary by Boit (225). The intervening years have seen considerable activity in the isolation of new alkaloids, the determination of ...
