The Inclusion of Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids by α- and β-Cyclodextrins
The association constants of α- and β- cyclodextrins with several pyrrolizidine alkaloids have been determined at pH 1.5 and 9.2 by using competitive spectrophotometry and solubility studies, respectively.

Cytochrome P450-based toxicity research of Pyrrolizidine alkaloids
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids were considered as the essential components in the toxicity of some composite plants. The previous study suggested that cytochrome P450 (CYPs)–mediated bioactivation and succedent formation of DNA adducts triggered toxicity of ...

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids: Hepatic metabolism and extrahepatic toxicity
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids are proposed to be metabolized in the liver to reactive pyrrole species, or dehydroalkaloids. These reactive pyrroles are hypothesized to be responsible for pyrrolizidine alkaloid toxicity.
