In vitro enhancement of aniline metabolism by paraoxon

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1972
Paraoxon in concentrations from 2 × 10−5 m to 1 × 10−3 m enhanced the in vitro microsomal metabolism of aniline in livers obtained from rats, mice, rabbits, dogs and man. Paraoxon is several thousand times more potent as an enhancing agent than acetone. Enhancement of drug metabolism by acetone is inhibited by SKF 525A, but enhancement of metabolism by

Metabolic engineering for enhanced oil in biomass

Progress in Lipid Research, 2019
The world is hungry for energy. Plant oils in the form of triacylglycerol (TAG) are one of the most reduced storage forms of carbon found in nature and hence represent an excellent source of energy. The myriad of applications for plant oils range across foods, feeds, biofuels, and chemical feedstocks as a unique substitute for petroleum derivatives ...

Metabolic and DNA checkpoints for the enhancement of Al tolerance

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2022
Acidic soils are a major limiting factor for food production in many developing countries. High concentrations of soluble Al cations, particularly Al3+, inhibit cell division and root elongation in plants. Al3+ damages several biomolecules, including DNA, impairing gene expression and cell cycle progression. Notably, the loss-of-function mutants of DNA

Enhancement and Inhibition of Drug Metabolism

Annual Review of Pharmacology, 1971
A large number of factors can alter rates of drug metabolism. This re­ view wiII discuss the enhancement and inhibition of drug metabolism. By enhancement is meant that increase in rate of in vitro drug metabolism ob­ served following the inclusion of other drugs or chemicals in the reaction mixture.

Enhancement of renal and hepatic glutathione metabolism by dimethylthiourea

Toxicology Letters, 1993
Dimethylthiourea (DMTU), a free radical scavenger, was administered to rats to study its effect on renal and hepatic glutathione metabolism, since it is a potential sulfhydryl donor. Six hours following DMTU, renal GSH content was significantly (P < 0.05) increased (10%), and was increased further after 24 h (28%) (P < 0.001).

Enhanced precision and efficiency in metabolic regulation: Compartmentalized metabolic engineering

Bioresource Technology
Metabolic engineering has witnessed remarkable advancements, enabling successful large-scale, cost-effective and efficient production of numerous compounds. However, the predominant expression of heterologous genes in the cytoplasm poses limitations, such as low substrate concentration, metabolic competition and product toxicity.

Metabolic Enhancement of the Soldier Brain

2019
Abstract This chapter highlights current understanding of human limits of performance, with emphasis on soldier-related research and the mechanisms of stress that typically affect soldier performance. How we exercise, eat, rest, and manage our emotions has a major effect on brain metabolism and human performance.

Isopropanol enhancement of carbon tetrachloride metabolism in vivo

Life Sciences, 1982
We examined the effects of isopropanol (ISOP) pretreatment on the metabolism of 14CCl4 to 14CO2 and CHCl3 exhaled in the breath, to 14C metabolite excreted in 24 hr urine and feces from 0 to 24 hr, and to 14C metabolite bound to liver at 24 hr. Fasted male rats were given 0.1 or 2.0 mmoles 14CCl4/kg.

The Enhanced Effect of Atenolol on Hypertension in Metabolic Syndrome

Metabolic Syndrome and Related Disorders, 2011
In metabolic syndrome, hypertension has been noted as one of the most important risk factors that contributes to cardiovascular disease. We have evaluated the effect of a selective adrenergic β(1)-receptor blocker, atenolol, on blood pressure and pulse rate in metabolic syndrome.Metabolic syndrome patients with hypertension (n=28) and a control group ...
