Rotenone is a naturally occurring botanical compound obtained from the roots of Derris sp.& Cube. It is an inhibitor of mitochondrial electron transport, specifically inhibiting NAD-linked substrate oxidation by mitochondria at the oxygen side of NADH dehydrogenase.
Rotenone is utilized as an insecticide. It can be used as neurotoxic agent that can produce a Parkinson-like condition as an animal model for study of etiology and interventions.
Inhibitor of mitochondrial electron transport at NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase. It is readily absorbed through the exoskeletons of arthropods, but poorly absorbed cutaneously or from the gastrointestinal tract of mammals. Rotenone is used to induce a Parkinson-like syndrome as an experimental model in rats.
