On the mechanism of acetoacetate synthesis by guinea pig liver fractions.
1. Commercially available coenzyme A preparations were found to contain sufficient amounts of glutathione so that in the reaction with diketene significant quanties of acetoacetyl glutathione were formed. Unless allowances are made for this, significant errors in the interpretation of results can be made because liver mitochondria contain a very active acetoacetyl glutathione hydrolase. 2. Puri...
متن کاملThe mechanism of acetoacetate synthesis.
The observation of a coenayme A (CoA)-catalyzed acetoacetate synthesis from acetate and adenosinetriphosphate in pigeon liver extracts (1) grouped this reaction with the larger family of acetylation reactions. Furthermore it furnished partial confirmation of an earlier calculation (2) showing that 16,000 calories are required for the condensation of two acetates to acetoacetate. Thus, one energ...

Achillea wilhelmsii have been used in folk remedies. The relaxant effects of the extractof A. wilhelmsii on tracheal chains of guinea pigs were examined. The relaxant effects offour cumulative concentrations of the extract, theophylline and saline were examined bytheir relaxant effects on precontracted tracheal chains of guinea pig by KCl (group 1), 10 μMmethacholine (group 2), incubated tissue...
متن کاملThe Relaxant Effects of Different Methanolic Fractions of Nigella sativa on Guinea Pig Tracheal Chains
Objective(s): In regard to the high incidence of asthma and the side-effects of the drugs used, finding novel treatments for this disease is necessary. Our previous studies demonstrated the preventive effect of Nigella sativa extract on ovalbumin-induced asthma. In addition, water-soluble substances of N. sativa extract and methanol fraction of this plant were responsible for the relaxant eff...
