They cause gastroenteric symptoms, coma and even death at high concentrations. It is thought that glycoalkaloids are toxic to human health as a result of their effects on the nervous system and destruction of cell membranes.

“…The fruit of S. linnaeanum is poisonous, however secondary metabolites and substances isolated from fruits and other parts of this plant may be used for some health purposes. In this regard, its fruits, leaves, and stems are rich in glycoalkaloids, whereas the whole plant is a good source of solamargine and solasonine, glycoalkaloids that are effective in skin cancer chemotherapy (Ono et al 2006, Gürbüz et al 2015. Also, glycoalkaloids solasodine rhamnosyl glycosides (SRGs), which occur in S. linnaeanum and other solanaceous plants, have a role in stimulating apoptosis in a vast assortment of cancer cells (Chauhan 2018).…”
