Mixed function oxygenases and xenobiotic detoxication/toxication systems in bivalve molluscs [PDF]

open access: yesHelgoländer Wissenschaftliche Meeresuntersuchungen, 1980
Components of a xenobiotic detoxication/toxication system involving mixed function oxygenases are present inMytilus edulis. Our paper critically reviews the recent literature on this topic which reported the apparent absence of such a system in bivalve molluscs and attempts to reconcile this viewpoint with our own findings on NADPH neotetrazolium ...

CDDO-Imidazolide inhibits growth and survival of c-Myc-induced mouse B cell and plasma cell neoplasms

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2006
Background Gene-targeted iMycEμ mice that carry a His6-tagged mouse Myc(c-myc)cDNA, MycHis, just 5' of the immunoglobulin heavy-chain enhancer, Eμ, are prone to B cell and plasma cell neoplasms, such as lymphoblastic B-cell lymphoma (LBL) and ...

Carnitine metabolism to trimethylamine by an unusual Rieske-type oxygenase from human microbiota [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dietary intake of L-carnitine can promote cardiovascular diseases in humans through microbial production of trimethylamine (TMA) and its subsequent oxidation to trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) by hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenases.

Enzymatic functionalization of carbon-hydrogen bonds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The development of new catalytic methods to functionalize carbon–hydrogen (C–H) bonds continues to progress at a rapid pace due to the significant economic and environmental benefits of these transformations over traditional synthetic methods.

Degradation of BTEX by anaerobic bacteria: physiology and application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Pollution of the environment with aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (so-called BTEX) is often observed. The cleanup of these toxic compounds has gained much attention in the last decades.

Expression of mRNA for phospholipase A(2), cyclooxygenases, and lipoxygenases in cultured human umbilical vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells and in biopsies from umbilical arteries and veins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Arachidonic acid (AA) is released by phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and then converted into vasoactive and inflammatory eicosanoids by cyclooxygenases (COX) and lipoxygenases (LOX).

Strigolactone biosynthesis is evolutionarily conserved, regulated by phosphate starvation and contributes to resistance against phytopathogenic fungi in a moss, Physcomitrella patens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In seed plants, strigolactones (SLs) regulate architecture and induce mycorrhizal symbiosis in response to environmental cues. SLs are formed by combined activity of the carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases (CCDs) 7 and 8 from 9-cis-β-carotene, leading to ...

Modifications of drug metabolism by disulfiram and diethyldithiocarbamate I. Mixed-function oxygenase

open access: yesChemico-Biological Interactions, 1976
Disulfiram and diethyldithiocarbamate were administered to rats for 4 days alone (300 mg/kg, daily, per os) or in combination with phenobarbital (80 mg/kg, daily, i.p.), in order to observe the effects of these compounds on the microsomal membrane components and on the mixed-function oxygenase system.

Cardiac myocyte-specific knock-out of calcium-independent phospholipase A2γ (iPLA2γ) decreases oxidized fatty acids during ischemia/reperfusion and reduces infarct size [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Calcium-independent phospholipase A(2)γ (iPLA(2)γ) is a mitochondrial enzyme that produces lipid second messengers that facilitate opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) and contribute to the production of oxidized fatty acids ...
