ln Vitro |
Biological inhibitors present in the dry seeds of Heracleum laciniatum Horn have been studied by means of thin layer chromatography and various bioassays. The ethylacetate fraction of methanol extracts contained three main groups of inhibitors having the following R values when chromatographed on silica gel with chloroform: (1) 0.60–0.80; (2) 0.20–0.40; (3) 0.0–0.10.
The group (1) inhibited lettuce seed germination and root growth, elongation of Avena first internode segments, growth of the fungus Cladosporium cucumerinum, and it caused leakage of betacyanin from red beet tuber slices. The groups (2) and (3) had no activity in red beet betacyanin leakage test, but they were inhibitory in the other bioassays used. The group (3) were generally less active than the group (2). The group (2) contained the furanocoumarins pimpinellin, bergapten, isobergapten and angelicin. Inhibitors present in the groups (1) and (3) have not been identified. Effects of five synthetic furanocoumarins (pimpinellin, bergapten, isobergapten, isopimpinellin, sphondin) on lettuce seed germination and Cladosporium growth were investigated. Pimpinellin was inhibitory to Cladosporium growth, and lettuce seed germination was inhibited by pimpinellin and sphondin [1].

Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity Summary
Inhibits insect cytochrome P450 (L579). The mechanism of action many furocoumarins is based on their ability to form photoadducts with DNA and other cellular components such as RNA, proteins, and several proteins found in the membrane such as phospholipases A2 and C, Ca-dependent and cAMPdependent protein-kinase and epidermal growth factor. Furocoumarins intercalate between base pairs of DNA and after ultraviolet-A irradiation, giving cycloadducts. (L579). Health Effects The furocoumarin 8-methoxypsoralen is carcinogenic to humans, and possibly 5-methoxypsoralen as well (L135). There is some evidence from mouse studies that other furocoumarins are carcinogenic when combined with exposure to UVA radiation (A15105). The SKLM regards the additional risk of skin cancer arising from the consumption of typical quantities of furocoumarin-containing foods, which remain significantly below the range of phototoxic doses, as insignificant. However, the consumption of phototoxic quantities cannot be ruled out for certain foods, particularly celery and parsnips, that may lead to significant increases in furocoumarin concentrations, depending on the storage, processing and production conditions. (L2157) Furocoumarin photochemotherapy is known to induce a number of side-effects including erythema, edema, hyperpigmentation, and premature aging of skin. All photobiological effects of furocoumarins result from their photochemical reactions. Because many dietary or water soluble furocoumarins are strong inhibitors of cytochrome P450s, they will also cause adverse drug reactions when taken with other drugs. |

Additional Infomation |
Isobergapten is a furanocoumarin.
Isobergapten has been reported in Heracleum dissectum, Heracleum moellendorffii var. paucivittatum, and other organisms with data available. Isobergapten is a furocoumarin. Furocoumarins, are phototoxic and photocarcinogenic. They intercalate DNA and photochemically induce mutations. Furocoumarins are botanical phytoalexins found to varying extents in a variety of vegetables and fruits, notably citrus fruits. The levels of furocoumarins present in our diets, while normally well below that causing evident acute phototoxicity, do cause pharmacologically relevant drug interactions. Some are particularly active against cytochrome P450s. For example, in humans, bergamottin and dihydroxybergamottin are responsible for the 'grapefruit juice effect', in which these furanocoumarins affect the metabolism of certain drugs. |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
