Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids: Biosynthesis, Biological Activities and Occurrence in Crop Plants

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are heterocyclic secondary metabolites with a typical pyrrolizidine motif predominantly produced by plants as defense chemicals against herbivores.

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids in honey: determination with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Research, 2018
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are probably the most widespread toxins of natural origin. More than 6,000 plant species produce these toxic compounds. Bees can forage on flowers of plants producing PAs, which leads to contamination of honey with the toxic

Improved Method for Isolation of Lycopsamine from Roots of Comfrey ()

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2012
An improved method for the isolation and purification of pyrrolizidine alkaloids from comfrey ( Symphytum officinale L.) roots was developed, introducing very fast, selective and ion residue-free reduction of N -oxides followed by ion-exchange ...

Assessing Mutagenicity of Methanolic Exteract of Borage Flower (Echium amuenum) Using Ames Bioassay

open access: yesIranian South Medical Journal, 2014
Background: pyrrolizidine alkaloids have been isolated from Echium amuenum. These alkaloids knowing as hepatotoxic, damage the liver. Mutagenicity of pure pyrrolizidine alkaloids has been identified.

Dietary alkaloids and the development of androconial organs in Estigmene acrea

open access: yesJournal of Insect Science, 2003
Male salt marsh moths, Estigmene acrea (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae), possess inflatable androconial organs called coremata. Prior to mating males form aggregations and inflate their coremata en masse.

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.
