Application Notes
Paspalinine is a tremorgenic diterpene indole alkaloid first isolated from Claviceps paspali by Clardy and co-workers in 1980 and subsequently detected in various Penicillium and Aspergillus species. Paspalinine is a causative agent of neurological disorders in cattle feeding on pastures infected with Claviceps paspali, possibly due to inhibition of high-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (maxi-K) channels. Paspalinine has anti-insectan properties.
