Research Notes

MulunguSouth American

Animal studies using pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure models demonstrated anticonvulsant activity of erythrinine, suggesting GABA-potentiating effects. A 2011 Brazilian study showed the total alkaloid fraction containing erythrinine produced dose-dependent anxiolytic effects in the light-dark box and marble burying tests.
