Systematic bioassay-guided fractionation of the methylene chloride extract of the roots from Ligularia macrophylla was performed to identify both phytotoxic and antifungal compounds. Four phytotoxic eremophilanes (furanoeremophilan-14beta,6alpha-olide,
BACKGROUND
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are commonly found in many plants including those used in medical therapeutics. The hepatotoxicities of PAs have been demonstrated both in vivo and in vitro; however, the neurotoxicities of PAs are rarely mentioned.
OBJECTIVE
In this study, we aimed to
