Cephalosporins are scavengers of hypochlorous acid

Biochemical Pharmacology, 1995
Potential scavenging properties of cephalosporins (i.e. cefamandole, cefotaxime and ceftriaxone) towards hypochlorous acid (HOCl) as well as the antibacterial activity of control and HOCl-reacted antibiotics were investigated. We found that these drugs, at therapeutically relevant concentrations, are indeed scavengers of HOCl, with ceftriaxone showing ...

Chlorogenic Acid as a Natural Scavenger for Hypochlorous Acid

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1995
The effect of chlorogenic acid (CGA) on the killing of Escherichia coli by hypochlorous acid (HOCI) was examined. CGA prevented E. coli from bactericidal action of HOCI in a concentration-dependent manner. HOCI reacted rapidly with CGA. By comparison with the one- and two-electron oxidation products produced by peroxidase and phenolase reactions ...

Ambroxol Is a Scavenger of Hypochlorous Acid and Monochloramine

Pharmacology, 1994
Experimental studies have suggested that ambroxol, a drug clinically used to enhance pulmonary surfactant production, may also exert some anti-inflammatory effects, though specific mechanisms are not yet fully understood. Thus, potential scavenging properties of ambroxol towards the most toxic neutrophil-arising prooxidants hypochlorous acid and ...

Polycationic Nanofibers for Nucleic Acid Scavenging

Biomacromolecules, 2016
Dying cells release nucleic acids (NA) and NA-containing complexes that activate inflammatory pathways of immune cells. Sustained activation of these pathways contributes to chronic inflammation frequently encountered in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

Hydroxybenzoic acids and their derivatives as peroxynitrite scavengers

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 2014
A social challenge of the 21(st) century is to reduce the incidence of chronic diseases. A balanced diet rich in polyphenols could contribute to reduce the risk and to the prevention of diabetes, coronary heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's diseases and cataract(1).

Hypochlorous acid scavenging capacity of garlic

Phytotherapy Research, 2007
AbstractThe ability of the following aqueous garlic extracts to scavenge hypochlorous acid (HOCl) was studied: (a) unheated extract of raw garlic (RG), (b) heated extract of raw garlic (HRG), (c) extract of boiled garlic cloves (BG) and (d) extract of microwave‐treated garlic cloves (MG).
