Increased plasma histamine levels were associated with significantly lowered diamine and type B monoamine oxidase activities in platelet-rich plasma of atopic eczema (AE) patients. The diamine oxidase has almost normal cofactor levels (pyridoxal phosphate and Cu(2+)) but the cofactor levels for type B monoamine oxidase (flavin adenine dinucleotide and Fe(2+)) are lowered. The biogenic amines pu...

Tetradentate acyclic compartmental Schiff base ligand with N2O2 compartment afford suitable coordination environment for large variety of metal ions. This type ligands can easily be synthesized by [2+1] condensation a carbonyl compounds diamine. Several complexes have been reported from the single- and double-compartment which are products salicylaldehyde, 2-hydroxyacetophenone, 3-methoxysalicy...

A new unsymmetric thioether diamine N - ( 2 - ( 2 - aminophenylthio) ethyl) benzene - 1 , 2 - diamine was prepared through the nucleophilic substitution of cysteaminium chloride with 1 - chloro - 2 - nitrobenzene and then the nitro groups of prepared compuond converted to the amine by zinc powder and ammonium chloride. Then, unsymmetric Schiff bass ligand 2 - ((( 2 - (( 2 - (( 2 - (( 2 - hydrox...

Three classes of diamine linked ferrocene (Fc)-conjugates were prepared and their properties were investigates in solution and the solid state: (a) acyclic diamine-linked 1,n'-Fc conjugates, (b) acyclic diamine-linked 1,n'-Fc peptide conjugates, and (c) cyclic 1,n'-Fc-peptide diamine conjugates. In all cases, the synthetic procedure started from 1,1'-ferrocenecarboxylic acid methyl ester or 1,1...

in plants, γ-aminobutyric acid (gaba) is synthesized by polyamine degradation pathway besides gaba shunt. aminoguanidine (ag) is a specific inhibitor of the key enzyme (diamine oxidase, dao) for gaba formation in polyamine degradation pathway. in this study, ag was applied to study the functions of polyamine degradation pathway on growth and gaba accumulation in germinating fava bean under hypo...

the aims of this study were to determine hippuric acid and toluene in urine samples, airborne toluene levels, health effects, and to describe any correlation between specimen samples. seventy-five printing workers exposed to toluene at work (exposed group), and 60 nonexposed people (control group) were studied. study participants were selected from same factories in the different positions. uri...

The main objective of this search was to prepare novel soluble polyureas with improved thermal stability. Accordingly, a new types of polyureas was prepared through the polycondensation reaction of a prepared diamine containing ether, keto, and naphthyl groups with 4,4’-diphenylmethan diisocyanate (MDI), toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI), and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) in N-methyl-2-pyrrol...

Diamine oxidase was previously measured in human pregnancy serum with putrescine or histamine as substrate. We have now documented the presence of spermidine oxidase activity in pregnancy serum by means of a specific radioactive assay with l '4Clspermidine as substrate and Dowex 50 cation-exchange chromatography to separate products from substrate. The apparent Km of a partially purified prepar...

Six alkali metal tris(HMDS) magnesiate complexes (HMDS, 1,1,1,3,3,3,-hexamethyldisilazide) containing chiral diamine ligands have been prepared and characterised in both the solid- and solution-state. Four of the complexes have a solvent-separated ion pair composition of the form [{M·(chiral diamine)(2)}(+){Mg(HMDS)(3)}(-)] [M = Li for 1 and 3, Na for 2 and 4; chiral diamine = (-)-sparteine for...
