An improved method utilizing reverse-phase liquid chromatography on a styrene-divinylbenzene column (PRP-1) and ultraviolet detection was developed for the simultaneous determination of the pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) senecionine, seneciphylline, and retrorsine and their major metabolites produced during in vitro transformation of
Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 117(1), 116-121 (1992-11-01)
Two carboxylesterases (GPL1 and GPH1) were isolated from guinea pig hepatic microsomes and assayed for activity using the following pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs): seneciphylline (SNP), monocrotaline (MCT), and a mixture of senecionine (SEN) and integerrimine (INT) referred to as SEN-INT. GPH1
Toxicology and applied pharmacology, 133(2), 277-284 (1995-08-01)
Despite their similarity in structure, pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) vary in their LD50s and in the organs in which toxicity is expressed. We have examined whether there are differences in the metabolism of certain PAs that are associated with these quantitative
Journal of ethnopharmacology, 12(3), 271-278 (1984-12-01)
The effect of oral administration of the pyrrolizidine alkaloids, seneciphylline and senecionine, from Senecio vulgaris (Compositae) on activities of hepatic epoxide hydrase, glutathione-S-transferase, aminopyrine-N-demethylase and arylhydrocarbon hydroxylase (AHH) was investigated in microsomes of young male albino rats. Seneciphylline significantly increased
