Cyanide Beyond Toxicity: A Systematic Review of Its Effects on Vascular Function

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 137, Issue 5, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Cyanide is widely recognized for its potent toxicity, yet evidence shows that concentrations below 1 μM may enhance cytochrome c oxidase activity and have a regulatory function. Recent findings also demonstrate that mammalian cells, including endothelial cells, produce cyanide endogenously, where it can modulate mitochondrial bioenergetics ...

Rhodanese is a Possible Enzyme Marker for Cyanide Environmental Stress on Aquatic Life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rhodanese is a cyanide detoxifying enzyme. The role of man through his anthropogenic activities in and around water bodies have increased in recent times. These have led to constant exposure of water body to cyanide and cyanide compounds with increase to

Honeybees Tolerate Cyanogenic Glucosides from Clover Nectar and Flowers

open access: yesInsects, 2018
Honeybees (Apis mellifera) pollinate flowers and collect nectar from many important crops. White clover (Trifolium repens) is widely grown as a temperate forage crop, and requires honeybee pollination for seed set.

Solution structures of GroEL and its complex with rhodanese from small-angle neutron scattering [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Background: Molecular chaperonins 60 are cylindrical oligomeric complexes which bind to unfolded proteins and assist in their folding. Studies to identify the location of the protein substrate have produced contradictory results: some suggest that the ...

A comparative study of the plasma level of arginase and rhodanese in smokers and non-smokers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The purpose of this investigation was to determine and compare the activities of arginase and rhodanese in the blood plasma of cigarette smokers and non-smokers. The activity of arginase in the blood plasma of smokers was higher than arginase activity in

Co-Cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Roseobacter denitrificans Reveal Shifts in Gene Expression Levels Compared to Solo Cultures

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2012
Consistent biosynthesis of desired secondary metabolites (SMs) from pure microbial cultures is often unreliable. In a proof-of-principle study to induce SM gene expression and production, we describe mixed “co-culturing” conditions and monitoring of ...

Microbial Detoxification of Cyanide Content in Cassava Waste: A Sustainable Approach

open access: yesBiotropia: The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Biology
ARTICLE HIGLIGHTS - Cassava waste with cyanide contamination presents significant environmental and health hazards. - Cyanide hydratase, nitrile hydratase, and rhodanese are microbial enzymes essential in the degradation of cyanogenic compounds.
