In recent years, considerable efforts have been made to identify new chemopreventive agents which could be useful for man. Myrica nagi, a subtropical shrub, has been shown to possess significant activity against hepatotoxicity and other pharmacological and physiological disorders. We have shown a
The antimicrobial mechanism of totarol was studied using Pseudomonas aeruginosa IFO 3080. This diterpene inhibited oxygen consumption and respiratory-driven proton translocation in whole cells, and oxidation of NADH in membrane preparation. NADH-cytochrome c reductase was inhibited by totarol while
The present study was designed to investigate the hepatic localization of the microsomal bifunctional trans-2-enoyl CoA hydratase. Despite the low activity (less than 10%) of peroxisomal marker enzymes in isolated hepatic microsomes (acyl CoA oxidase (this study), catalase, and urate oxidase (L.
