Antioxidant Properties of Ambroxol

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 1994
We tested whether Ambroxol, a drug which stimulates the release of surfactant by pneumocytes type II, may also possess antioxidant properties. To assess the reactivity of Ambroxol with reactive oxygen species, we analysed its ability to decompose hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and to inhibit the superoxide (O2.-)-dependent autooxidation of pyrogallol ...

Oral Ambroxol Increases Brain Glucocerebrosidase Activity in a Nonhuman Primate [PDF]

open access: yesSynapse, 2017
Mutations in the glucocerebrosidase 1 (GBA1) gene are related to both Parkinson disease (PD) and Gaucher disease (GD). In both cases, the condition is associated with deficiency of glucocerebrosidase (GCase), the enzyme encoded by GBA1.

Effect of Ambroxol of Neutrophil Chemotaxisin Vitro

Agents and Actions, 1988
Ambroxol hydrochloride has been shown to protect the lung from damage by polymorphonuclear leucocyte (PMN). In view of this observation we have studied the effect of Ambroxol on PMN chemotaxis using a variety of chemoattractants. The PMN response was inhibited 50-80% by preincubating the cells with concentrations of 10(-4) M Ambroxol.

Ambroxol Is a Scavenger of Hypochlorous Acid and Monochloramine

Pharmacology, 2008
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 ...

A Controlled Trial of Ambroxol in Chronic Bronchitis

Chest, 1987
Ambroxol is a mucolytic agent which is widely used in chronic bronchitis in Europe. We conducted a double-blind randomized controlled trial of ambroxol vs matched placebo in 90 patients with chronic bronchitis and difficulty clearing secretions. It was concluded that there was no advantage to taking ambroxol.

Sonolytic debromination of ambroxol process wastewater

Water Research, 2003
In this study ultrasound was examined in terms of its effectiveness in treating wastewater containing ambroxol and process water from ambroxol synthesis. The organic bromine contents of the water samples investigated were in the 20-1200 mg l(-1) range. Ultrasound is capable to debrominate the ambroxol molecule rendering it biologically degradable.
