Description

Cyclopamine is a Hedgehog (Hh) pathway antagonist with an IC50 of 46 nM in the Hh cell assay.


Cyclopamine is a member of piperidines. It has a role as a glioma-associated oncogene inhibitor.

Toxicity

...DERIVED FROM THE PLANT VERATRUM CALIFORNICUM.

Drug Information

Plants have and continue to provide medicine with an abundance of pharmacologically interesting and useful chemicals. In recent years, cyclopamine, a steroidal alkaloid isolated from Veratrum californicum, has been instrumental in dissecting the sonic hedgehog pathway. This brief report outlines cyclopamine's discovery with discussion of its potential application to clinical dermatology.

3 OR 4. 3= MODERATELY TOXIC: PROBABLE ORAL LETHAL DOSE (HUMAN) 0.5-5 G/KG, BETWEEN 1 OZ & 1 PINT (OR 1 LB) FOR 70 KG PERSON (150 LB). 4= VERY TOXIC: PROBABLE ORAL LETHAL DOSE (HUMAN) 50-500 MG/KG, BETWEEN 1 TEASPOON & 1 OZ FOR 70 KG PERSON (150 LB). /VERATRUM VIRIDE ALKALOIDS/

Conversion to teratogen of cyclopamine by rumen microorganisms is not essential. Indeed, ruminant sheep and non-ruminant rabbits were about equally susceptible to cyclopamine on a body weight basis.

A NUMBER OF VERATRUM ALKALOIDS WERE TESTED IN PREGNANT SHEEP FOR TERATOGENICITY. THE COMPOUNDS JERVINE, CYCLOPAMINE...AND CYCLOPOSINE...PRODUCED DEFORMITIES SIMILAR TO NATURAL CASES. THE 3 TERATOGENIC COMPOUNDS ARE CLOSELY RELATED STEROIDAL FURANOPIPERIDINES, BUT CYCLOPAMINE IS THE TERATOGEN OF NATURAL IMPORTANCE BECAUSE OF PLANT CONCN. CLOSELY RELATED COMPD DEVOID OF THE FURAN RING DID NOT PRODUCE CYCLOPIA IN SHEEP, SUGGESTING THAT AN INTACT FURAN RING WAS REQUIRED FOR ACTIVITY, PERHAPS CONFERRING SOME ESSENTIAL CONFIGURATION ON THE MOLECULE.

Cyclopamine Use and Manufacturing

Uses

Cyclopamine antibacterial properties. Cyclopamine demonstrates teratogenic properties and has been shown to reverse effects of oncogenic mutations in Smoothened and Patched.

11-Deoxojervine is a precursor for the biosynthesis of jervine in Veratrum grandiflorum.
