Glutathione (GSH) is required for the oxidation of formaldehyde (HCHO) to formate catalyzed by formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FDH). The effects of GSH depletion on the mechanisms of labeling of macromolecules in the rat nasal mucosa and bone marrow by 3HCHO and H14CHO were investigated. Male rats were
1H, 13C NMR, ESMS and MS/MS investigations proved that there is an antagonism in the spontaneous reaction of formaldehyde with L-lysine and L-arginine. L-Arginine can only be hydroxymethylated on the guanidino group in a very fast reaction forming mono-, di-, and trihydroxymethyl arginines (HMA).
The C-5 of 5-aminolaevulinate, a tetrapyrrole precursor which accumulates when inhibitory laevulinate is present, is derived from either the C-2 of glycine by the 5-aminolaevulinate-synthase-mediated Shemin pathway or the C-1 of 2-oxoglutarate by the C5 pathway. Thin-layer-radiochromatographic
A very powerful nucleophilic reagent, hydralazine(1-hydrazino-phtalazine) proved to be suitable for determination of the endogenous formaldehyde level in biological samples. It was found that in different plants (vegetables, fruits, especially in red beet, cauliflower, kohlrabi, grapes) is a large
This study aimed to investigate the neurotoxic damage of formaldehyde (FA), which is commonly used in medicine and industrial fields, for the hippocampus of rats and the protective role of thymoquinone (TQ) against this neurotoxicity.There were five groups The phytotoxicity of formaldehyde for spider plants (Chlorophytum comosum L.), tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv Bel B and Bel W3), and soybean (Glycine max L.) cell-suspension cultures was found to be low enough to allow metabolic studies. Spider plant shoots were exposed to 7.1 [mu]L L-1
We have previously shown that intact plants and cultured plant cells can metabolize and detoxify formaldehyde through the action of a glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (FDH), followed by C-1 metabolism of the initial metabolite (formic acid). The cloning and heterologous expression of
Formaldehyde and benzene are the two major indoor air pollutants due to their prevalence and toxicity. This study aimed to explore the toxic effect on the spleen and relevant immune responses of Balb/c mice caused by exposure to a combination of formaldehyde and benzene. Balb/c mice were divided
Presented here are data from Next-Generation Sequencing of differential micrococcal nuclease digestions of formaldehyde-crosslinked chromatin in selected tissues of maize (Zea mays) inbred line B73. Supplemental materials include a wet-bench protocol for making DNS-seq libraries, the DNS-seq data
This study was aimed at the identification of the site and characterization of the kinetics of tissue renewal during the repair of the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE) surrounding ovulation. Prepubescent C57BL female mice were induced hormonally either by intraperitoneal (ip) injection of pregnant
Studies of the toxicology of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) were reviewed as a possible information base for evaluating the health effects of evaporative emissions from reformulated gasoline (RFG). The major metabolites of the oxidative demethylation of MTBE in vivo were methanol and tertiary
Quinone metabolites of naphthalene (NAP) are known to produce lipid peroxidation. However, the ability of naphthalene to induce oxidative stress in experimental animals has not been extensively investigated. Furthermore, the effects of vitamin E succinate [(+)-alpha-tocopherol acid succinate; VES]
BACKGROUND
Eleven carbohydrates and natural product ingredients were added individually to experimental cigarettes.
OBJECTIVE
A battery of tests was used to compare toxicity of mainstream smoke from these experimental cigarettes to matched control cigarettes without test ingredients.
METHODS
Smoke
Free flavins have been extracted from shoots of etiolated corn (Zea mays L., var. Burpee Snowcross) and from yeast cells and separated from other substances by absorption on resorcinol-formaldehyde resin and talc columns and by thin layer chromatography. Riboflavin was the only free flavin present.
BACKGROUND
In addition to the hippocampus, the dorsolateral caudate nucleus (CN) and the pars reticularis of the substantia nigra (SNr) are among the most vulnerable brain areas to ischemia. A possible association of the neuronal injury in these two subcortical nuclei has been proposed, the primary
