Biosynthesis of Gossypol
Based on the previous observations that gossypol is biosynthetically formed from acetate, and from the location of the incorporated 1% atoms, gossypol biosynthesis via the isoprenoid pathway has been postulated. To support this hypothesis, the incorporation of mevalonate-2J4C (a key intermediate in the isoprenoid pathway) into gossypol as well as the distribution of the radioactivity in the gos...
متن کاملGossypol Content of Cotton Free Commercial Feed for Dairy Cows
Gossypol is a yellow pigment occurring in all parts of cotton plants, with the highest levels found in seeds, and it exhibits a variety of toxic effects. Few data are available on the content of gossypol in the commercial complementary feed and in feed raw materials. The present study was focused on the investigation of the presence of free gossypol in commercial complementary feed not containi...
متن کاملGossypol inhibition of adenylate cyclase.
Gossypol, a polyphenolic binaphthalene -dialdehyde reputed to exert contraceptive action in males, reversibly inhibits adenylate cyclase [ATP pyrophosphate lyase (cyclizing), EC 4.6.1.1] in a concentration-dependent manner. In membranes prepared from a variety of organs, the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) ranges from 75 microM (rat Leydig tumor cells) to 250 microM (rat liver memb...
متن کاملMechanically Processing Cottonseed to Reduce Gossypol and Aflatoxin Levels
Cottonseed is an economical source of protein and is commonly used in balancing livestock rations; however, its use is typically limited by protein level, fat content, gossypol, and the potential for aflatoxin contamination. There are numerous studies in the literature discussing gossypol and aflatoxin toxicities in livestock and processing methods for reducing gossypol levels in cottonseed. Ho...
متن کاملGossypol Toxicity from Cottonseed Products
Gossypol is a phenolic compound produced by pigment glands in cotton stems, leaves, seeds, and flower buds (Gossypium spp.). Cottonseed meal is a by-product of cotton that is used for animal feeding because it is rich in oil and proteins. However, gossypol toxicity limits cottonseed use in animal feed. High concentrations of free gossypol may be responsible for acute clinical signs of gossypol ...
