Case Study

Effects of Ammodendrine Alkaloid Teratogen on Fetal Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors

Green, Benedict T., et al. Neurotoxicology and teratology, 2010, 32(3), 383-390.

Ammodendrine is one of the teratogenic alkaloids found in plants. The pharmacodynamics of several teratogenic alkaloids, including Ammodendrine, were studied in SH-SY5Y cells and TE-671 cells. Results indicate that these teratogenic alkaloids are more effective in initiating responses and desensitizing TE-671 cells expressing human fetal muscle nAChR than SH-SY5Y cells expressing human autonomous nAChR. The mechanism behind the teratogenic potential of these compounds is stimulation of muscle-type nAChRs, followed by desensitization and finally inhibition of fetal movement.
Ammodendrine related research results
· Ammodendrine was tested in both cell lines. In TE-671 cells, ammodendrine had EC50s of 539 μM and 1101 μM for the racemate and the (+)-enantiomer of ammodendrine. (-)-ammo- dendrine was without effect in TE-671 cells so an EC50 was not calculated. In SH-SY5Y cells, all forms of ammodendrine were of low potency and efficacy. In TE-671 cell line, the ammodendrine compounds were very weak agonists and had only minimal activity at 100 and 1000 μM.
· The rank order of alkaloid EC50 values in TE-671 cells was: anabaseine> (+)-anabasine> (-)-anabasine> (±)-anabasine> anagyrine> (-)-coniine > (±)-coniine> (+)-coniine> (±)-ammodendrine>(+)-ammodendrine.
· The rank order of alkaloid EC50 values in SH-SY5Y cells was: anabaseine>(+)-anabasine>(-)-coniine > (+)- coniine > (+)-ammodendrine > anagyrine> (-)-anabasine > (±)- coniine > (±)-anabasine > (-)-ammodendrine.
