OBJECTIVE
Evaluation of the Sophora alopecuroides var. alopecuroides seed effects on morphine withdrawal syndrome in mice and determination of the alkaloid composition of the seed total extract.
METHODS
The effects of the seed total extract, alkaloid fraction and major compound matrine on the mice
Seven alkaloids were isolated from the seed of Sophora alopecuroides and identified to be oxymatrin, oxysophocarpine, cytisine, matrine, sophocarpine, sophoridine and nicotine respectively by comparing chromactographic and spectral characteristics with authentic known compounds. Nicotine was
Lysine decarboxylase (LDC) catalyzes the first-step in the biosynthetic pathway of quinolizidine alkaloids (QAs), which form a distinct, large family of plant alkaloids. A cDNA of lysine/ornithine decarboxylase (L/ODC) was isolated by differential transcript screening in QA-producing and
BACKGROUND
Māori experience a disproportionate amount of smoking-related harm (46% of adult Māori smoke). Effective cessation treatments that are both accessible and attractive to Māori are urgently needed. Cytisine (a plant extract found in Golden Rain [Cytisus laburnum L.] and the New Zealand
