Biological context of Atropa

 

Associations of Atropa with chemical compounds

  • Responses of transformed root culture of Atropa belladonna to salicylic acid stress [8].
  • The aim of this study was to evaluate effects of low doses of Atropa belladonna L., Gelsemium sempervirens L. and Poumon histamine on stress-induced behavioral, immunological and gastric alterations [9].
  • In order to investigate the production of tropane alkaloids by hairy roots of Atropa baetica, transgenic for the gene h6h encoding the enzyme hyoscyamine 6beta-hydroxylase, solvent extraction with chloroform and with dichloromethane of the metabolites present in the liquid medium and in the root tissue was compared [10].
  • The complete amino acid sequences of [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin from Atropa belladonna and Hyoscyamus niger have been determined by automated Edman degradation of the entire S-carboxymethylcysteinyl proteins and of the peptides obtained by enzymatic digestion [7].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Atropa

  • This single-blind placebo-controlled study was designed to investigate the dose-dependent vagolytic and vagotonic effects after a single oral administration of Atropa belladonna tincture (ABT, 0.1 mg/ml alkaloid concentration, atropine/scopolamine = 20:1) [11].
