Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Lactating rats dosed with (3)H-retronecine excreted within 3 hr approx 0.08% of the applied radioactivity in the milk mainly as yet not identified water soluble retronecine-derived metabolites and approx 0.02% as unchanged pyrrolizidine alkaloids (pas). Highest tissue levels of pas and metabolites, 6 hr after admin were found in liver and lungs. Metabolism / Metabolites Steric hindrance around the ester groups was the major factor inhibiting hydrolysis of pyrrolizidine alkaloids. Enzymic hydrolysis of retronecine di-isovalerate occurred primarily at the allylic 9-ester group. The results supported the view that a factor contributing to the lower hepatotoxicity of semisynthetic retronecine diesters compared with some natural pyrrolizidine alkaloids, is their greater susceptibility to detoxication by hydrolysis. Levels of pyrrolic metabolites were measured in the livers of rats given some pyrrolizidine alkaloids and semisynthetic derivatives. Structural and chemical features favoring the formation of such metabolites were defined. The most important of these were steric hindrance or chemical properties giving resistance to ester hydrolysis; lipophilic character, allowing access to hepatic microsomal enzymes; a conformation favoring microsomal oxidation of the pyrroline ring in preference to n-oxidation. Levels of pyrrolic metabolites were measured in the livers of rats given some pyrrolizidine alkaloids and semisynthetic derivatives. ... Heliotridine-based alkaloids gave more pyrrole than similar retronecine esters, heliotridine ditiglate gave less pyrrole than retronecine ditiglate because the former was more open to hydrolytic attack. |

Additional Infomation |
Retronecine is a member of pyrrolizines.
Retronecine has been reported in Euploca bracteata, Senecio vernalis, and other organisms with data available. Retronecine is a pyrrolizidine alkaloid found in a variety of plants in the genera Senecio and Crotalaria, and the family Boraginaceae. It is the most common central core for other pyrrolizidine alkaloids. |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] Oral Formulations
Oral Formulation 1: Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na (carboxymethylcellulose sodium) Oral Formulation 2: Suspend in 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Example: Take the Oral Formulation 1 (Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na) as an example, if 100 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can first prepare 0.5% CMC Na solution by measuring 0.5 g CMC Na and dissolve it in 100 mL ddH2O to obtain a clear solution; then add 250 mg of the product to 100 mL 0.5% CMC Na solution, to make the suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Preparing Stock Solutions | 1 mg | 5 mg | 10 mg | |
1 mM | 6.4437 mL | 32.2186 mL | 64.4371 mL | |
5 mM | 1.2887 mL | 6.4437 mL | 12.8874 mL | |
10 mM | 0.6444 mL | 3.2219 mL | 6.4437 mL |
*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.
Calculation results
Working concentration: mg/mL;
Method for preparing DMSO stock solution: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO (stock solution concentration mg/mL). Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug.
