ALPHA-AMANITIN Usage And Synthesis

Usesα-Amanitin has been used:
  • for inducing transcriptional arrest in NT2 cells prior to immunofluorescence assay
  • to induce nephrotoxicity in mice renal tissues
  • to induce and analyse genotoxicity in mice bone marrow cells by cell viability assay, comet assay and chromosomal aberration assay

Biological Activityα-amanitin, the most deleterious toxin of a. phalloides to humans, inhibits rna polymerase ii (rnapii), causing hepatic and renal failure.
Biochem/physiol ActionsThe major toxic constituent of the mushroom, Amanita phalloides, inhibits eukaryotic RNA polymerase II and III, but does not inhibit RNA polymerase I or bacterial RNA polymerase. Inhibits mammalian protein synthesis.
in vivo

The intravenous LD50 dose of alpha-Amanitin is 0.327 mg/kg body weight after intravenous injection into BALB/c mice. After 12 h of alpha-Amanitin injection in caudal vein, the levels of WBC, RBC and HGB decrease significantly, while those of BUN and Crea increase significantly in serum. alpha-Amanitin inhibits some genes (Hsp90b1, Irx4, etc.), whose encoded proteins regulate the RNA polymerase II activity. alpha-Amanitin down-regulates some proteins (Nmi, Trpc5, etc.) taking part in the transcription progress[1]. alpha-Amanitin has potent activity in DTC suppression. Mice injected with alpha-Amanitin (0.4 mg/kg, i.p.)-treated cells maintain their body weight, while those receiving a peritoneal injection of MKN45 cells show a constant decrease in body weight[2].
