Picrotoxin is a sesquiterpene that occurs naturally in the fruit of the Anamirta cocculus which a wild woody climber, distributed throughout India as well as South-East Asia. Picrotoxin is a mixture of two compounds, picrotoxinin and picrotin. Of the two compounds, picrotoxinin is the active ingredient. Picrotoxinin is a naturally occurring poison that a noncompetitive antagonist of GABAA receptors (GABARs), the primary mediators of inhibitory neurotransmission in the nervous system.
