Mechanism Of Toxicity | Veratridine is a steroid-derived alkaloid from plants in the Liliaceae family that functions as a neurotoxin by abolishing inactivation of sodium ion channels. It binds to intramembrane receptor site 2 and increases intracellular Ca2+ concentration. It acts by preferentially binding to activated Na+ channels causing persistent activation that leads to increased nerve excitability. The activation of the action potential Na+ ionophore by veratridine is time- and concentrationdependent and completely reversible. |
Toxicity | LD50 in mice (mg/kg): 1.35 i.p. (Swiss, Bauer); 0.42 i.v. (Krayer); 6.3 s.c. (Tanaka) |
