Methylene Blue Inhibits Caspases by Oxidation of the Catalytic Cysteine
Methylene blue, currently in phase 3 clinical trials against Alzheimer Disease, disaggregates the Tau protein of neurofibrillary tangles by oxidizing specific cysteine residues. Here, we investigated if methylene blue can inhibit caspases via the oxidation of their active site cysteine. Methylene blue, and derivatives, azure A and azure B competitively inhibited recombinant Caspase-6 (Casp6), a...
متن کاملOxidations by Erythrocytes and the Catalytic Influence of Methylene Blue
The marked increase of respiration and the accompanying oxidation of carbohydrate exhibited by mammalian erythrocytes under the catalytic influence of methylene blue (Harrop and Barron (1)) make this semibiological model an instructive one for the study both of carbohydrate oxidation and the catalytic factors essential to respiration. In a preceding paper (2) we reported experiments which show ...
متن کاملKinetic determination of thiocyanate on the basis of its catalytic effect on the oxidation of methylene blue with potassium bromate.
This study reports a sensitive kinetic spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of thiocyanate. In acidic solution, Methylene Blue (MB) is oxidized by bromate to form a colorless compound. The reaction is accelerated by trace amounts of thiocyanate and can be followed by measuring the absorbance at 664 nm. The absorbance of the reaction decreased with an increase in the ...
متن کاملAnodic Oxidation of Methylene Blue Dye from Aqueous Solution Using SnO2 Electrode
This study was performed to investigate the electrochemical oxidation of a solution containing methylene blue dye by using a tin oxide (SnO2) electrode. The effect of several operating factors such as electrolyte types, current density, initial dye concentration, and pH were investigated by following the discolorationand COD removal. The results show th...
