Cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP) are important catalyzing proteins involved in the biotransformation of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. However, their expression and/or activity can be altered by exposure to contaminants such as mycotoxins.

The evolution and structure of biomedical knowledge on cytochrome P450 [PDF]
Cytochrome P450 are fundamental proteins to the metabolism of drugs and other relevant processes. through a combination of text mining and network analysis of the P450 literature we mapped the emergence and evolution of the biomedical research communities working on this family of proteins.

Microsomal superoxide anion production and NADPH-oxidation in a series of 22 aziridinylbenzoquinones [PDF]
Several 2,5-bis(1-aziridinyl)-1,4-benzoquinones (BABQs) can be activated to alkylating species by reduction of the quinone moiety. On the other hand, cytotoxicity of these compounds can be induced by redox cycling.

Abstract Chronic intraperitoneal injection of thioacetamide (TAA) in rats has been used as an animal model of human cirrhosis to study the effects of the disease on drug metabolism. However, TAA inhibits P450 enzymes directly and independently of cirrhosis. We investigated the effects of chronic cirrhosis in rats, induced by 10 weeks of intraperitoneal

Ascorbic acid enhances the inhibitory effect of aspirin on neuronal cyclooxygenase-2-mediated prostaglandin E2 production [PDF]
In the present study, we show that ascorbic acid dose-dependently inhibited interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta)-mediated PGE2 synthesis in the human neuronal cell line, SK-N-SH. Furthermore, in combination with aspirin, ascorbic acid augmented the inhibitory effect of aspirin on PGE2 synthesis. However, ascorbic acid had no synergistic effect along with other

Analyzing hepatocytes and liver microsomes samples along with synthesized references. Complete structure elucidation of major metabolites was possible, and biomarkers for both ADB‐P‐5Br‐INACA and ADB‐4en‐P‐5Br‐INACA were suggested. Abstract Synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) remain a major public health concern, as they continuously are linked to severe ...

Hypothesis review: Alzheimer's overture guidelines
Brain aging with ADNC and sporadic Alzheimer's disease (sAD) form a prevalent continuum unique to humans. Molecular changes affecting cell membranes, cytoskeleton, synapses, lipid and protein metabolism, energy metabolism, neuroinflammation, cell cycle, astrocytes, microglia, and blood vessels precede and occur in parallel with early ADNC; and they are
