Disenecioyl dehydroretronecine (DSDR), a semi-synthetic analog of the highly reactive pyrrole metabolites of the pyrrolizidine alkaloids, has been synthesized from disenecioyl retronecine. Rats which received 40 mg DSDR/kg body weight via the mesenteric vein showed multiple depressed areas (less
Wistar rats received an hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor, a halogenated pyrrole designated PD 123244-15, orally by gavage for 14 days at 10, 50, 150, 300, and 600 mg/kg. Doses of 150-600 mg/kg caused death and marked systemic toxicity involving stomach, esophagus,
Houndstongue (Cynoglossum officinale), a noxious weed that contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs), infests pastures and fields in the western United States and Europe. The purpose of this study was to develop techniques to better diagnose PA poisoning and describe the progression of gross and
(E)-3-Phenyl-1-(2-pyrrolyl)-2-propenone (PPP) is a pyrrole derivative of chalcone, in which the B-ring of chalcone linked to β-carbon is replaced by pyrrole group. While pyrrole has been studied for possible Src inhibition activity, chalcone, especially the substituents on the B-ring, has shown
Monocrotaline pyrrole (MCTP), a putative toxic metabolite of the naturally occurring pyrrolizidine alkaloid, monocrotaline, causes pulmonary vascular thrombi that are associated with vascular remodeling, pulmonary hypertension, and right cardioventricular hypertrophy in rats. The thrombi are
This work highlights a systematic and comparative study of the structure-dependent influence of a series of biologically active Cu(II) Schiff base complexes (CSCs) on their in vitro cytotoxicity, apoptosis and binding with polymeric DNA-bases in ground and photo-excited states. The
Necroptosis is a regulated caspase-independent cell death pathway resulting in morphology reminiscent of passive non-regulated necrosis. Several diverse structure classes of necroptosis inhibitors have been reported to date, including a series of [1,2,3]thiadiazole benzylamide derivatives. However,
Up-regulation of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) involves adhesions between both circulating and resident leukocytes and the human tracheal smooth muscle cells (HTSMCs) during airway inflammatory reaction. We have demonstrated previously that tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-induced
RAW 264.7 murine macrophages were exposed to the pyrrole-based compound 3,5-Dibromo-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (JG-03-14), which is a known microtubule depolymerizing agent with antitumor activity [1,2,3]. In this study exposure to JG-03-14 reduced the
We showed recently that ethyl-2-amino-pyrrole-3-carboxylates (EAPCs) exhibit potent antiproliferative activities against a broad spectrum of soft tissue sarcoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) cell lines in vitro. The molecular mechanism of action was owing to inhibition of tubulin
The cytotoxic and carcinogenic effects of MCP, the possible proximate metabolite of the alkaloid monocrotaline, were investigated in rats by the subcutaneous route. Sequential of MCP subcutaneously produced an acute inflammatory reaction with necrosis of the local tissue. A slight delay in
We recently reported on the successful generation of immortalized (CEPI-17-CL4) cells from primary human corneal epithelial (P-CEPI) cells which exhibited phenotypic, immunohistochemical and metabolic characteristics akin to the P-CEPI cells. The aims of the present studies were to investigate the
Five synthetic compounds analogous to pyrrolizidine alkaloids have been tested for toxicity in rats. These were the bis-N-ethylcarbamate esters of synthanecines A, B, C and D (Compounds I-IV) and the bis-diethylphosphate ester (V) of synthanecine A. The amino alcohol moiety in each of these had a
δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD) is an important enzyme in tetrapyrrole synthesis. ALAD combines two δ-aminolevulinic acid (δ-ALA) molecules to form the pyrrole molecule, porphobilinogen, an important precursor for plant pigments involved in photosynthesis, respiration,
BACKGROUND
Unlike in Warmblood horses, aortic rupture is quite common in Friesian horses, in which a hereditary trait is suspected. The aortic connective tissue in affected Friesians shows histological changes such as medial necrosis, elastic fibre fragmentation, mucoid material accumulation and
