Application

Senecionine has been used in a study to observe the gender-dependent difference of glutathione antioxidant system and its influence on hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloid isoline-induced liver injury. Senecionine has also been used in a study to observe a new metabolic pathway for pyrrolizidine alkaloids.

Integerrimine (ITR), a pyrrolizidine alkaloid from Senecio brasiliensis, was tested for genotoxicity using the wing somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) in Drosophila melanogaster. The compound was administered by chronic feeding (48 hours) of 3-day-old larvae. Two different crosses involving

Intracellular reduced glutathione (GSH) antioxidant system is crucial for counteracting oxidative stress-induced liver injury. The present study was designed to observe the gender-dependent difference of GSH antioxidant system and its influence on hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloid (HPA) isoline-induced liver injury. Lower
