Platyphora boucardi leaf-beetles sequester tertiary pyrrolizidine alkaloids of the lycopsamine type acquired from their host-plant Prestonia portobellensis (Apocynaceae) and synthesize their own alkaloids from exogenous retronecine and aliphatic 2-hydroxy acids. Tracer studies with [14C]rinderine and its N-oxide revealed that P.

Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) play a fundamental role in the sexual biology of the salt marsh moth Estigmene acrea. They are precursors for the male courtship pheromone hydroxydanaidal and they stimulate the growth and development of male pheromone-disseminating organs called coremata.

Riddelliine is a representative pyrrolizidine alkaloid, a class of naturally occurring toxic phytochemicals present in plant species worldwide. Human exposure to pyrrolizidine alkaloids occurs through consumption of herbal dietary supplements, including comfrey, and through contaminated livestock products (e.g., milk). A

We have previously reported that metabolism of a series of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in vitro and in vivo generated a set of (+/-)6,7-dihydro-7-hydroxy-1-hydroxymethyl-5H-pyrrolizine (DHP)-derived DNA adducts. It has also been shown that the levels of the DHP-derived DNA adduct formation correlated

The C-9 and C-7 monoesters and C-7, C-9 diesters of heliotridine with (S)-(+) and (R)-(-)-2-hydroxy-2-phenylbutyric acid were prepared, converted into their N-oxides, and compared with the corresponding C-9 monoesters of retronecine in the in vivo P388 lymphocytic leukemia screen. Relative
