Picrotin
Picrotin is an organic heteropentacyclic compound that is picrotoxinin in which the olefinic double bond has undergone addition of water to give the corresponding tertiary alcohol. It is the less toxic component of picrotoxin, lacking GABA activity. It has a role as a plant metabolite. It is an organic heteropentacyclic compound, an epoxide, a tertiary alcohol, a gamma-lactone, a diol and a picrotoxane sesquiterpenoid. It is functionally related to a picrotoxinin. Picrotin is a natural product found in Dendrobium moniliforme and Anamirta cocculus with data available. Picrotin belongs to the class of organic compounds known as furopyrans. These are organic polycyclic compounds containing a furan ring fused to a pyran ring. Furan is a five-membered aromatic ring with four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Pyran a six-membered heterocyclic, non-aromatic ring, made up of five carbon atoms and one oxygen atom and containing two double bonds. Picrotin is soluble (in water) and a very weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). C78272 - Agent Affecting Nervous System > C47795 - CNS Stimulant Picrotin is an active compound, also is one of the composition of picrotoxin (an antagonist of GABAA receptors (GABAARs) and glycine receptors (GlyRs)). Picrotin has sensitivity for GlyRs/b> with IC50 values range from 5.2 μM to 106 μM. Picrotin can be used for the research of neurotransmission[1][2].
