Bioactivity Glufosinate, a phosphinic acid analogue of glutamic acid, is a herbicide which is converted by plant cells into PT (L-phosphinothricin). Glufosinate exerts neurotoxic activity[1][2].
Invitro Glufosinate (1-100 μM; 12DIV) disrupts cell-cell adhesion in differentiated V-SVZ neural stem cells (NSCs)[2].Glufosinate (1-100 μM; 12DIV) significantly decreases Celsr2 gene expression at 100 μM[2].Glufosinate impairs ependymal cell capability to synthetize cilia[2].
In Vivo Glufosinate (10-250 mg/kg; gavage; Daily; on days 6-15 of gestation) indicates maternal toxicity in the groups given 50 or 250 mg/kg in Wistar rats[3].The Elimination of Glufosinate (oral intubation) in the blood takes place with a half-life of less than 4 hours in male and female rats[3].
