Mechanism of Action of the Thyroid Hormone on the Heart
SUMMARY The foliowing cardiac effects may be attributed to thyroxin: 1-Thyroxin augments all anaerobic processes in the body includ::ng the heart, and decreases the glycogen content of the heart ( 1, 2, 5, 27). The resistance of the heart to anoxia is increased in hyperthyroidism ( 25). 2- Thyroxin influences the cardiac weight and prevents cardiac atrophy (3, 8, 10, 11, 19, 20, 21, 30...
متن کاملMechanism of action of the antifungal antibiotic pyrrolnitrin.
Pyrrolnitrin at 10 mug/ml inhibited the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Penicillium atrovenetum, and P. oxalicum. The primary site of action of pyrrolnitrin on S. cerevisiae was the terminal electron transport system between succinate or reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and coenzyme Q. At growth inhibitory concentrations, pyrrolnitrin inhibited endogenous and exogenous respi...
متن کاملMechanism of action of cinodine, a glycocinnamoylspermidine antibiotic.
The mechanism of action of cinodine, a glycocinnamoylspermidine antibiotic, was investigated. Upon addition of cinodine to growing cultures of Escherichia coli, a rapid decline in viable cell numbers was observed. Culture turbidity continued to increase for a short period before plateauing. Microscopic examination indicated that the antibiotic-treated cells continued to elongate with subsequent...
متن کاملLipiarmycin, a new antibiotic from Actinoplanes III. Mechanism of action.
In vivo, at low concentrations (less than or equal to 1 mug/ml), the antibiotic lipiarmycin specifically inhibits RNA synthesis in Bacillus subtilis. At a much higher concentration (100 mug/ml), syntheses of other macromolecules such as DNA and protein also appear to be suppressed. In vitro, the antibiotic caused 50% inhibition of DNA-dependent RNA-polymerase from B. subtilis at a concentration...
متن کاملAntibacterial Activity of Polypyrrole-Chitosan Nanocomposite: Mechanism of Action
Polypyrrole-chitosan nanocomposite (PPy-CTN) was synthesized by dispersion polymerization of PPy in presence of CTN. Preparation of spherical PPy nanoparticles that were successfully covered with a thin layer of chitosan was confirm by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) technique. Characterization techniques also revealed the presence of CNT in the polymer matrix and its presence was confir...
