A possible acetaldehyde-mediated cardioprotective mechanism.
Excess alcohol consumption may affect the cardiovascular system in various ways. Adverse effects include hypertension (McMahon, 1987), arrhythmias (Ettinger et al, 1978), cardiomyopathy (Urbano-Marquez et al, 1989) and haemorrhagic stroke (Camargo, 1989). One beneficial effect of moderate alcohol consumption appears to be some protection against morbidity and mortality from coronary heart disea...
متن کاملThe Gas Phase Oxidation of Acetaldehyde Reaction Mechanism and Kinetics
The mechanism of the low temperature oxidation of gaseous acetaldehyde was investigated in the temperature range of 1 50-400?°C. The minor, intermediate and major products were identified and measured quantitatively by sampling directly into the ionization chamber of an MS10-C2 mass spectrometer from the reactor. The formation of H2O, CO, CO2, HCOOH, H2, HCHO, CH3COOH and CH3OH as the major pro...
متن کاملMediated coalescence: a possible mechanism for tumor cellular heterogeneity.
Recently, we demonstrated that tumorigenic cell lines and fresh tumor cells seeded in a 3D Matrigel model, first grow as clonal islands (primary aggregates), then coalesce through the formation and contraction of cellular cables. Non-tumorigenic cell lines and cells from normal tissue form clonal islands, but do not form cables or coalesce. Here we show that as little as 5% tumorigenic cells wi...
متن کاملAcetaldehyde Acetaldehyde Acetaldehyde
Acetaldehyde may be the injurious agent in acute alcoholic liver disease. It has been suggested that the mechanism of liver injury in this situation may be immunologically mediated. In the present study acetaldehyde has been bound to human liver plasma membranes. The activation of C3 by the acetaldehyde/membrane product was measured by immunofixation of the separated C3 components. Activation o...
متن کاملPossible mechanism of miltefosine-mediated death of Leishmania donovani.
Miltefosine causes leishmanial death, but the possible mechanism(s) of action is not known. The mode of action of miltefosine was investigated in vitro in Leishmania donovani promastigotes as well as in extra- and intracellular amastigotes. Here, we demonstrate that miltefosine induces apoptosis-like death in L. donovani based on observed phenomena such as nuclear DNA condensation, DNA fragment...
