CAS 480-54-6: Retrorsine
Description:Retrorsine is a naturally occurring alkaloid primarily found in certain plants, particularly those in the Senecio genus. It is classified as a pyrrolizidine alkaloid, which is known for its potential hepatotoxicity and carcinogenic properties. Retrorsine has a complex bicyclic structure that includes a pyrrolizidine ring, contributing to its biological activity. The substance is often studied for its effects on liver function and its role in plant defense mechanisms. Retrorsine can be toxic to livestock and humans if ingested in significant amounts, leading to conditions such as veno-occlusive disease. Due to its toxicological profile, it is important to handle retrorsine with caution in laboratory settings. Additionally, its presence in herbal remedies and traditional medicines raises concerns regarding safety and regulation. Overall, retrorsine serves as an important subject of research in toxicology and pharmacology, highlighting the need for awareness regarding the consumption of plants containing this alkaloid.
