Precoccinelline
text:
Precoccinelline is an alkaloid produced by the Coccinella septempunctata, also known as the seven-spot ladybird. The alkaloid is released from the joints in C. septempunctata legs when it is provoked to deter predators such as ants or birds. It binds to both insect and mammalian nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, giving it use as an insecticide or as a therapy to treat drug dependence.
