Phenoxyacetohydrazide Schiff bases: β-glucuronidase inhibitors.
Phenoxyacetohydrazide Schiff base analogs 1-28 have been synthesized and their in vitro β-glucouoronidase inhibition potential studied. Compounds 1 (IC50=9.20±0.32 µM), 5 (IC50=9.47±0.16 µM), 7 (IC50=14.7±0.19 µM), 8 (IC50=15.4±1.56 µM), 11 (IC50=19.6±0.62 µM), 12 (IC50=30.7±1.49 µM), 15 (IC50=12.0±0.16 µM), 21 (IC50=13.7±0.40 µM) and 22 (IC50=22.0±0.14 µM) showed promising β-glucuronidase inhi...
متن کاملContinuous Spectrophotometric Assay for β - Glucuronidase
A continuous spectrophotometric assay has been developed for detecting β-glucuronidase activity. In the assay, Para-nitrophenyl β-D-glucuronide is cleaved to yield a chromophoric product. With the commercial E. coli enzyme, it is demonstrated that the reactions can be continuously monitored by the increase of absorbance at 405 nm. The method is highly sensitive and able to detect less than 1.4 ...
متن کاملToxicological Pathology in the Rat Placenta
The placenta grows rapidly for a short period with high blood flow during pregnancy and has multifaceted functions, such as its barrier function, nutritional transport, drug metabolizing activity and endocrine action. Consequently, the placenta is a highly susceptible target organ for drug- or chemical-induced adverse effects, and many placenta-toxic agents have been reported. However, histopat...
متن کاملMonoamine oxidase in rat placenta, human placenta, and cultured choriocarcinoma.
The activity of monoamine oxidase (MAO), an enzyme which metabolized catecholamines and indoleamines, was determined in rat placenta at various stages of gestation, in human term placenta, and in choriocarcinoma grown in culture. From Day 15 to Day 20 of gestation the specific activity (units/mg protein) of MAO in rat placenta increased at least 3-fold; from Day 20 to the time of parturition, i...
متن کاملA β-glucuronidase (GUS) based cell death assay.
We have developed a novel transient plant expression system that simultaneously expresses the reporter gene, β-glucuronidase (GUS), with putative positive or negative regulators of cell death. In this system, N. benthamiana leaves are co-infiltrated with a 35S driven expression cassette containing the gene to be analyzed, and the GUS vector pCAMBIA 2301 using Agrobacterium strain LBA4404 as a v...
