Previously it was shown that lipophilic analogs of a free-radical scavenger, 2(3)-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (BHA), inhibit ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity which is induced by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in mouse epidermis. With regard to this antitumor-promoting effect, eight
We have recently presented the synthesis of 2-amino-1,4-benzoquinones by nuclear amination of p-hydroquinones with primary aromatic amines using fungal laccases as catalysts. In the present report, a series of selected 2-amino-1,4-benzoquinones was tested for biological activities, such as
The interaction of two clinically important anticancer agents doxorubicin (DXR) and daunorubicin (DNR) and the DNR analog 5-iminodaunorubicin (5IDNR) with the model mammalian peroxidase microperoxidase 11 (MP11) and H(2)O(2) has been investigated using spectrophotometric and EPR techniques. We
Hydroquinone is used an antioxidant in the rubber industry and as a developing agent in photography. It is also an intermediate in the manufacture of rubber and food antioxidants and monomer inhibitors. Hydroquinone and products containing hydroquinone are used as depigmenting agents to lighten
The chromatographic separation of the MeOH extract from the twigs of Acer tegmentosum led to the isolation of ten phenolic compounds. The structures of these compounds were determined using spectroscopic methods as 3,7,3',4'-tetramethyl-quercetin (1), 5,3'-dihydroxy-3,7,4'-trimethoxy flavone (2),
The search of new anti-inflammatory drugs has been a current preoccupation, due to the need of effective drugs, with less adverse reactions than those used nowadays. Several naphthoquinones (plumbagin, naphthazarin, juglone, menadione, diosquinone and 1,4-naphthoquinone), plus p-hydroquinone and
t -Butylhydroquinone is used as an antioxidant in cosmetic products such as lipsticks, eye shadows, perfumes, blushers, and skin care preparations at concentrations ranging from 0.1% to 1.0%; the chemical is also used at concentrations up to 0.02% in oils, fats, and meat products to prevent
