Metabolite Identification
Common NameFestuclavine
DescriptionCostaclavine, also known as festuclavin or pyroclavin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as clavines and derivatives. These are hydroxy and dehydro derivatives of 6,8-dimethylergolenes and the corresponding ergolines. Costaclavine is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Costaclavine is a naturally occuring alkaloid of the ergoline family. Costaclavine is a potentially toxic compound. Ergoline alkaloids tend to act as a group, producing complex and variable effects of partial agonism or antagonism at adrenergic, dopaminergic, and serotonergic receptors. Usually the gastrointestinal effects precede the central nervous system effects. In particular, ergoline alkaloids have been shown to have the significant affinity towards the 5-HT1 and 5-HT2 serotonin receptors, D1 and D2 dopamine receptors, and alpha-adrenergic receptors. Ergotism occurs in two forms, gangrenous and convulsive, likely depending on the different kinds and amounts of ergoline alkaloids present. If necessary, a sympathetic nerve blockade may be carried out, such as brachial plexus blockade. Convulsive ergotism can cause painful seizures and spasms, diarrhea, paresthesias, itching, headaches, nausea and vomiting.
