Overview Introduction Features Toxic principle Mechanism of action Clinical features Management Autopsy findings Medicolegal importance Introduction It is a organic poisonous plant Gastrointestinal irritant Botanical name - Ricinus communis Common name - Castor , arandi Features Tall plant & Grows all over in India , especially in waste lands Leaves - Lobate with toothed margins Fruit - 1.2 to 2.5 cm long, Globular, three-lobed, softly spiny, blue-green or rose-red when immature, brown and bristly when ripe and dry. Seeds -Seeds are variable, smooth, flattened-oval in shape And are of two size large and small Large seeds - mottled, dark-brown in color With shiny hard seed cover ( pericarp ) small seeds - 1-2 cm long 0.8 cm broad in size Resembles croton seeds Toxic principle Entire plant is toxic but seeds are more toxic containing toxalbumen ricin, a water-soluble glycoprotein (highest level in the seeds), and a powerful allergen . The seeds are rich in a purgative oil, which is pale-yellow with a faint odour and acrid taste. The oil extract of the seeds has an acid called ricinoleic acid and the left over cake has the toxalbumin called ricin . Unbroken seeds - non poisonous when swallowed or cooked Castor oil - non poisonous Crushed seeds - poisonous can be in the form of a powder, mist or pellet Toxalbumin or phytotoxin is a toxic protein that disable ribosomes and thereby inhibit protein synthesis, and present in the plants like in castor, croton or rati. • It is antigenie in nature, agglutinates red cells, causes hemolysis and cell destruction. Toxalbumins are similar in structure to the toxins found in cholera, tetanus, diphtheria, pseudomonas and botulinum; and their physiological and toxic properties are similar to those of viperine snake venom. Mechanism of action Ricin has 2 polypeptide chains ( A and B) Connected by Disulfide bond In GIT , Chain B binds the cell surface & Chain A enters into cytoplasm Chain A acts on 60S ribosomal unit of cell and disrupt Protein synthesis It is antigenic in nature , agglutinates red cells , causes hemolysis and cell destruction . Basic Structure Ricin is a toxalbumin composed of two polypeptide chains: * A chain (active/toxic component) * B chain (binding component) These are linked by a disulfide bond. ⸻ 🔹 Stepwise Mechanism 1. Binding to Cell Surface * The B chain binds to galactose-containing receptors on the cell membrane (glycoproteins and glycolipids). ⸻ 2. Cell Entry * After binding, ricin enters the cell via endocytosis. * It is then transported through: * Endosomes → Golgi apparatus → Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) ⸻ 3. Translocation * In the ER, the A chain separates and translocates into the cytosol. ⸻ 4. Inhibition of Protein Synthesis (Key Step) * The A chain inactivates ribosomes by damaging the 28S rRNA of the 60S ribosomal subunit. 👉 This leads to: * Irreversible inhibition of protein synthesis ⸻ 5. Cell Death * Due to failure of protein synthesis, the cell cannot survive, resulting in cell death (cytotoxic effect). Clinical features Ricin can be absorbed through inhalation , ingestion, injection and through skin contact . Dust of the seeds may cause- rwatering of the eyes, conjunctivitis, sneezing, acute nasal inflammation, headache, pharyngitis, asthmatic bronchitis, dermatitis and gastric upset. Inhalation exposure- Redness and pain in the eye, throat, Dyspnea Wheezing Respiratory distress Fever Cough Tightness in chest Sweating Pulmonary edema Oral Ingestion - When crushed seeds are ingested, it produces following clinical features: • Abdominal pain • Vomiting and diarrhea with or without blood (hematemesis and melena) • Dehydration • Circulatory collapse • Muscular pain and cramps in limbs • Convulsions • Drowsiness • Delirium jaundice haendlyess • Hepatic failure Oliguria Uremia Death may be due to multiorgan failure or cardiovascular collapse. Injection manifestation - Pain at injection site, erythema, induration or localized necrosis Muscular pain Capillary leak syndrome Circulatory collapse Convulsions Multiorgan failure Respiratory failure Fatal Dose • 5-10 seeds • 1 mg/kg body weight for Ricin • Fatal period: 2 days to few days. Management No antidote In case of ingestion: - Gastric lavage - Emetics and demulcents - Administration of glucose and saline - 2-5 g of sodium bicarbonate is given 8 hourly by mouth - Blood transfusion may be needed in some patients OR Gastric lavage and administration of activated charcoal. • Supportive treatment consists of management of shock, correction of electrolyte abnormalities and treatment of convulsion. Autopsy findings • GIT- mucosa is congested, softened and inflamed with occasional erosions and submucous hemorrhages. • Fragments of seeds in the stomach and intestines. • Dilation of heart and hemorrhages in the pleura. • Edema and congestion of liver, kidneys, spleen and lungs. Medicolegal importance • • Accidental poisoning may occur especially in children while playing or exploring the plant and seeds. • Ricin is used for homicidal purpose. • Used to procure criminal abortion. • Can cause anaphylactic type of hypersensitivity in humans. • The pulp of seed contains allergenic glycoprotein, which may cause dermatitis, rhinitis, asthma, and conjunctivitis in allergic individuals. • Potential bioweapen: Because of easy availability and toxicity, ricin has been classified by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as a category B biological weapon. • In 1978, Georgi Markov, died after he was attacked by a man with an umbrella, which was rigged to inject ricin pellet under Markov's skin. Laboratory Diagnosis + Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and immunoassays. * Ricinine, an alkaloid can be detected in serum and unne. Comprehensive untargeted urine drug screening testing is highly valuable. • Ricin-antibody conjugates can be detected in surviving patients after 2 weeks.
