introduction

cytisine is a toxic pyridine-like alkaloid. pharmacologically it exhibits similar effects to nicotine due to st ructural similarity of the two molecules.

sources:plants that contain the alkaloid in various concentrations include those from several genera of the faboideae subfamily, including laburnum, anagyris, thermopsis, cytisus, genista and sophora. also present in gymnocladus of the caesalpinioideae subfamily.

function:

cytisine is a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonist, and as a pharmaceutical preparation it is available for the treatment of nicotinism. cytisine derivative varenicline was approved in 2006 as a smoking cessation drug. a 2006 literature review concludes that while trials performed with cytisine itself are mostly of poor quality, there is some evidence that cytisine may be prescribed to aid in smoking cessation
