Toxic Behaviour of Naturally Occurring Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids
The Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids (PAs) are the chemicals which are found in various plant species throughout the world. Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are secondary metabolites those have been evolved as a powerful means in the plant defensive system against herbivores. Several studies are being performing to detect presence of PAs in the food and feed which are obtained from plants through direct or...
متن کاملA thermodynamic overview of naturally occurring intramolecular DNA quadruplexes
Loop length and its composition are important for the structural and functional versatility of quadruplexes. To date studies on the loops have mainly concerned model sequences compared with naturally occurring quadruplex sequences which have diverse loop lengths and compositions. Herein, we have characterized 36 quadruplex-forming sequences from the promoter regions of various proto-oncogenes u...
متن کاملA new naturally occurring polyamine containing a quaternary ammonium nitrogen.
A new polyamine, tetrakis(3-aminopropyl)ammonium, N+ (CH2CH2CH2NH2)4, was identified in cells of an extreme thermophile, Thermus thermophilus. This compound was chemically synthesized and its chemical properties were coincident with those of the amine isolated from the thermophile.
متن کاملSuppression of ochratoxin biosynthesis by naturally occurring alkaloids.
The effects of four alkaloids on the biosynthesis of ochratoxin A (OTA), ochratoxin B (OTB) and citrinin were examined on four OTA-producing aspergilli: Aspergillus auricomus, A. sclerotiorum and two isolates of A. alliaceus. Piperine and piperlongumine, natural alkaloids of Piper longum, significantly inhibited OTA production at 0.001% (w/v) for all aspergilli examined. Piperine and piperlongu...
متن کاملNaturally occurring ehrlichiosis in Egyptian dogs
Canine ehrlichiosis has emerged as one of the most clinically important tick-borne diseases affecting dogs. Eighty-five naturally infected dogs have been investigated, the most consistent clinical signs recorded were fever, emaciation and lymphoadenopathy, anemia, monocytosis, thrompocytopenia, hypoalbuminemia, elevation in liver enzymes and total bilirubin were the most remarkable changes asso...
