Several alkaloids derived from histidine occur in plants. Probably the best known of these is pilocarpine (5), found in species of Pilocarpus (Rutaceae) (Fig. 37.2). This compound is a peripheral stimulant of the parasympathetic system and is used topically as a myotic to counteract the mydriatic effects of atropine and other parasympatholytic drugs. Pilocarpine is used for the treatment of glaucoma (as a 0.5-10% solution). [Pg.692]
