- 3-(1-Pyrrolin-2-yl)pyridine
Brand:Biosynth
Description:Myosmine is a type of alkaloid, which is commonly found in tobacco plants and other members of the Solanaceae family. This compound is naturally occurring and is derived from the biosynthesis of nicotine. It plays a role as an intermediate in the transformation of nicotine in various biological systems.
The mode of action of myosmine involves its interaction with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors as well as potential metabolic pathways within the body. Due to its structural similarity to nicotine, it can influence various physiological processes and pathways. Research has indicated that myosmine may undergo nitrosation to form carcinogenic substances under certain conditions; however, its complete metabolic fate and potential health impacts are still subjects of scientific investigation.
Myosmine is primarily explored in the context of its applications in pharmacology and toxicology, where it serves as a model compound to study the effects of tobacco constituents apart from nicotine. It is also utilized to understand its role in various metabolic and biochemical pathways within organisms exposed to tobacco-related products. As research progresses, myosmine continues to be of interest for its potential implications in human health and understanding tobacco-related risks.
