Bioallethrin
Identification
- Generic Name
- Bioallethrin
- DrugBank Accession Number
- DB13746
- Background
Bioallethrin refers to a mixture of two of the allethrin isomers (1R,trans;1R and 1R,trans;1S) in an approximate ratio of 1:1, where both isomers are active ingredients. A mixture of the two same stereoisomers, but in an approximate ratio of R:S in 1:3, is called esbiothrin. A mixture containing only S-forms of allethrin is referred to as esbioallethrin or S-bioallethrin. Bioallethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid used as a pesticide against household pest insects such as mosquitoes, houseflies and cockroaches. It is claimed to have low mammalian toxicity.

Pharmacology
- Indication
Bioallethrin was used for lice and scabies infestation. Other pyrethroids are now used in place of bioallethrin.

Bioallethrin causes respiratory paralysis in lice and scabies parasites resulting in death 1.
- Mechanism of action
Bioallethrin, like other pyrethroids, binds to voltage gated sodium channels in their closed state and modifies the gating kinetics 1. Channel opening appears to increase affinity of the channel for pyrethroids like bioallethrin. Once bound pyrethroids slow both the opening and closing of the sodium channel resulting in a need for stronger excitatory potentials to produce an action potential and a delay in repolarization. The these changes make the neuron more susceptible to large action potentials and repeated firing by both increasing the initial threshold and reducing the input needed for after-potentials. When repeated firing does occur, the nerve terminal will release more neurotransmitter which can produce muscle paralysis through tetanus. This paralysis stops the breathing of lice and scabies parasites resulting in death.
Some pyrethroids act on calcium channels to increase intracelllular calcium 2. Bioallethrin produces a very small increase in intracellular calcium in mouse neocortical neurons by acting on N-type calcium channels but the effect returns to baseline within 2 min. In contrast bioallethrin has been found to block L T, and P/Q-types of voltage gated calcium channels in human embryonic kidney cell cultures 6. Bioallethrin has been found to inhibit both sodium-calcium dependent and magnesium-calcium ATP hydrolysis in insects although it, along with other type I pyrethroids, has a greater effect on sodium-calcium dependent hydrolysis 3. Bioallethrin may stimulate phosphoinositol breakdown in synaptoneuromes as other type I pyrethroids have been observed to do so 4. Other type I pyrethoids have also been found to bind to kainate receptors 5.

- Metabolism
Metabolism of bioallethrin in both rats and humans is considered to be virtually 100% oxidative 7,8. This is because bioallethrin is very resistant to hydrolysis of its ester group although a negligible amount of hydrolysis may occur.
In humans bioallethrin is metabolized primarily by CYP2C19 with some metabolism by CYP2C8, CYP3A4, and CYP2C9*2 7. The metabolites produced include primary alcohols via allylic oxidation near the cyclopropane group and subsequent oxidation to carboxylic acid, formation of a primary alcohol via oxidation of a methyl group to located on the cyclopropane portion of the molecule, formation of a primary alcohol via allylic oxidation near the 5-membered ring or formation of an epoxide at this location and subsequent hydrolysis to a diol.
In rats bioallethrin has been found to be metabolized mainly by CYP2C6, CYP2C11, and CYP3A1 with some contribution from CYP1A1, CYP2A1 and CYP3A2 7. Rats appear to metabolize bioallethrin at about 15 times the rate of humans.

Bioallethrin can produce hypersensitivity reactions in patients sensitive to ragweed or chrysanthemum 10. Ingestion of bioallethrin can produce life-threatening convulsions or coma. Less serious toxic effects include sore throat, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, mouth ulceration, increased secretions and/or dysphagia. Systemic effects include dizziness, headache and fatigue are common, and palpitations, chest tightness and blurred vision and occur 4-48 h after exposure.
Bioallethrin is not carcinogenic or mutagenic 9. In rats doses over 58.7 mg/kg/day produce reproductive effects and doses over 125 mg/kg/day are embryotoxic.
