Picrotoxin, also known as cocculin, is a poisonous crystalline plant alkaloid, first isolated by Boullay in 1812. Found primarily in Cocculus indicus and Anamirta cocculus, it has a strong physiological action. It acts as a non-competitive antagonist of GABA A receptors. As GABA itself is an inhibitory neurotransmitter, infusion of picrotoxin has a stimulative effect. Chemical structure Picrotoxin C30H34O13 consists of two substances, picrotoxinin C15H1606 and picrotin C15H1807. References L. Dupont, O. Dideberg, J. Lamotte-Brasseur et L. Angenot 1976.
