L-Ascorbic acid 6-hexadecanoate, a potent hyaluronidase inhibitor. X-ray structure and molecular modeling of enzyme-inhibitor complexes.
Hyaluronidases are enzymes that degrade hyaluronan, an important component of the extracellular matrix. The mammalian hyaluronidases are considered to be involved in many (patho)physiological processes like fertilization, tumor growth, and metastasis. Bacterial hyaluronidases, also termed hyaluronate lyases, contribute to the spreading of microorganisms in tissues. Such roles for hyaluronidases...
متن کاملL-Ascorbic Acid Peroxidase
Euglena gracilis was found to contain a peroxidase that specifically requires L-ascorbic acid as the natural electron donor in the cytosol. The presence of an oxidation-reduction system metabolizing L-ascorbic acid was demonstrated in Euglena cells. Oxidation of L-ascorbic acid by the peroxidase, and the absence of ascorbic acid oxidase activity, suggests that the system functions to remove H20...
متن کاملOnion, a Potent Inhibitor of Xantine Oxidase
Onion (Allium Cepa) contains high levels of flavonoids. Although there are many studies indicating the inhibitory effects of flavonoids on xanthine oxidase, there is no report on the effect of onion on this enzyme. Therefore, in the present study, the inhibitory effects of onion on xanthine oxidase are investigated. Fresh filtered juice of onion was prepared and its inhibitory effect on guine...

متن کاملAscorbic acid and 6-deoxy-6-chloro-ascorbic acid: potential anticancer drugs.
The role of ascorbic acid (AA) in prevention and suppression of carcinogenesis has been known for a long time. It was also found that AA may inhibit the growth of some tumor cells in vitro and in vivo. We examined the influence of ascorbic acid and 6-chloro-6-deoxy ascorbic acid (6-Cl-AA) on the growth of various human cell lines: lung fibroblasts (Hef), ovarian adenocarcinoma (OVCAR), colon ad...
