Disease relevance of Pseudotropanol

  • Growth of Pseudomonas AT3 on the alkaloid atropine as its sole source of carbon and nitrogen is nitrogen-limited and proceeds by degradation of the tropic acid part of the molecule, with the metabolism of the tropine being limited to the point of release of its nitrogen [1].
  • The recombinant TRII protein expressed in Escherichia coli catalyzes pseudotropine formation from tropinone with a Km value, a pH optimum, substrate and co-substrate preferences similar to those reported for the TRII enzymes from other Solanaceae species [2].
  • Pseudotropine, the major alkaloid, is known to affect motility and might represent a causative agent for the observed cases of equine intestinal fibrosis [3].
  • Metabolism of the tropine indole-3-carboxylate ICS 205-930 by differentiated rat and human hepatoma cells [4].
 

Psychiatry related information on Pseudotropanol

  • Of these, the benzofurane-3-carboxylic ester of tropine (1) was found powerfully to increase the pain threshold, with a cholinergic mechanism of action [5].
 

High impact information on Pseudotropanol

 

Biological context of Pseudotropanol

 

Anatomical context of Pseudotropanol

  • These and earlier results suggest a possible form of metabolic dependence of myelin on tropine substances from the axon [13].
  • Whereas vagal stimulation caused a muscarinic receptor-mediated increase in tracheal smooth muscle tone (as indicated by a 9.6 +/- 1.1 mmHg increase in endotracheal cuff pressure), the increase in cuff pressure (1.8 +/- 0.4 mmHg) was attenuated after intrapericardial tropine (4 mg) [14].
  • The metabolism of the tropine indole-3-carboxylate ICS 205-930 (ICS), a highly potent and selective antagonist of 5-HT3 receptors, was investigated in continuous cell lines derived from rat or human liver and compared to the in vivo metabolism in rat and human [4].
 

Associations of Pseudotropanol with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of Pseudotropanol

  • Intrathecal administration of the 5-HT3 receptor antagonist tropine (200 microg) produced allodynia, reduced the threshold, decreased the latency, and increased the number of spikes in the late component of the nociceptive flexion reflex [19].
  • Poisoning with tropine alkaloids from cultivated plants and pharmaceuticals is an uncommon cause of delirium and coma [20].
  • The tropine-forming reductase (TR I, EC 1.1.1.206) was purified 108-fold, the pseudotropine-forming enzyme (TR II, EC 1.1.1.236) was purified 3410-fold to homogeneity [21].
