LP17994-2 Ergotamine
Ergopeptine (or ergopeptide) alkaloids, including ergovaline, ergosine, ergotamine, ergocornine, ergocryptine, and ergocristine, are produced from the ergot fungi of the genus Claviceps. Ergot fungi grow on rye and other cereal grains and are known to cause ergotism (also known as ergotoxicosis, ergot poisoning and Saint Anthony's Fire) in humans and animals who ingest the contaminated grains. Patients with ergotism present with convulsive and gangrenous symptoms. The gangrenous symptoms are due to vasoconstriction induced by the alkaloids of the fungus. PMCID: PMC1637017
