The Comparative Metabolism Of The Four Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids, Seneciphylline, Retrorsine, Monocrotaline, And Trichodesmine In The Isolated, Perfused Rat Liver., C. C. Yan, R. A. Cooper, R. J. Huxtable

Roland A. Cooper

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 and qualitative differences in toxicity. Isolated rat livers were perfused with one of four PAs (seneciphylline, retrorsine, monocrotaline, and trichodesmine) at 0.5 mM for 1 hr, and the pyrrolic metabolites determined that were released into perfusate and bile or bound in the liver. The proportion of the PA removed by the liver varied from 93% for retrorsine to 55% for …
