jacobine

Jacobine induces significant dose-dependent DNA-DNA interstrand cross-linking over the entire range of doses. It was catalyzed by guinea pig hepatic glutathione-S-transferase enzymes in in vitro experiments.

Jacobine N-oxide is a pyrrolizidine alkaloid compound found in thrips-resistant Senecio hybrids.

Jaconine, jacoline,jacobine, and jacozine, the hepatotoxic alkaloids, are potentially carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic and may pose health hazards to the human consumer.
