abstract digestive enzyme inhibitors are proteinacious or nonproteinacious compounds which reduce an enzyme activity through attaching to its active site and/or its substrate. nowadays, plant enzyme inhibitors are of great importance because 1) these have considerable effects on insect digestive enzymes and as a result on their development; and 2) the transgenic plants expressing them are safe....

cirrhosis is the consequence of chronic liver disease. deleterious effects of oxidative stress on hepatocytes may be reflected in the erythrocyte membrane. naltrexone (ntx) has been shown to attenuate hepatocellular injury in fibrotic animal models. the aim of this study was to investigate the progressive effect of ccl 4 on the liver and whether the improvement of liver cirrhosis can be monitor...

In this study, the enzyme activity of anthraquinone compounds which were synthesized beforehand by our research group was investigated. Molecular docking studies performed for 1-(4-aminophenylthio)anthracene-9,10-dione (3) and 1-(4-chlorophenylthio)anthracene-9,10-dione (5). Compound 3 from reaction 1-chloroanthraquinone (1) 4-aminothiophenol (2). 5 4-chlorothiophenol (4). Anthraquinone analogs...

If changes in the composition of the soil microbial community alter the physiological capacity of the community then such changes may have ecosystem consequences. We examined the relationships among community composition (PLFA), microbial biomass (CFDE), substrate utilization profiles (BIOLOG), lignocellulose degrading enzyme activities (b-glucosidase, cellobiohydrolase, b-xylosidase, phenol ox...
