urtica dioica effect on malonyl-coa decarboxylase
background the malonyl-coa decarboxylase (mcd, ec.4.1.1.9) enzyme regulates malonyl-coa levels. the effect of aerial parts extracts of urtica dioica (ud) on mcd is poorly understood. objectives the present experiment was undertaken to evaluate the effect of ud aerial parts extracts on mcd level. materials and methods in this experimental study, two groups of rats were used: normal and hyperglyc...
متن کاملEffects of Teucrium polium aerial parts extracts on malonyl-CoA decarboxylase level
Malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MCD) is an enzyme involved in the decarboxylation of malonyl-CoA to acetyl-CoA. In order to explore the hypothesis that the changing plant materials’ MCD activity level can serve as therapy to diabetics, the effect of Teucrium polium compounds was studied in a diabetic rat model. In this experimental study, two groups of rats, a control and a diabetic group, each incl...
متن کاملHeteroaryl substituted bis-trifluoromethyl carbinols as malonyl-CoA decarboxylase inhibitors.
A series of heteroaryl-substituted bis-trifluoromethyl carbinols were prepared and evaluated as malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MCD) inhibitors. Some thiazole-based derivatives showed potent in vitro MCD inhibitory activities and significantly increased glucose oxidation rates in isolated working rat hearts.
متن کاملScreening Phosphorylation Site Mutations in Yeast Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase Using Malonyl-CoA Sensor to Improve Malonyl-CoA-Derived Product
Malonyl-coenzyme A (malonyl-CoA) is a critical precursor for the biosynthesis of a variety of biochemicals. It is synthesized by the catalysis of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (Acc1p), which was demonstrated to be deactivated by the phosphorylation of Snf1 protein kinase in yeast. In this study, we designed a synthetic malonyl-CoA biosensor and used it to screen phosphorylation site mutations of Acc1p...
متن کاملExercise training decreases the concentration of malonyl-CoA and increases the expression and activity of malonyl-CoA decarboxylase in human muscle.
The study was designed to evaluate whether changes in malonyl-CoA and the enzymes that govern its concentration occur in human muscle as a result of physical training. Healthy, middle-aged subjects were studied before and after a 12-wk training program that significantly increased VO2 max by 13% and decreased intra-abdominal fat by 17%. Significant decreases (25-30%) in the concentration of mal...
