Onion, a Potent Inhibitor of Xantine Oxidase
Onion (Allium Cepa) contains high levels of flavonoids. Although there are many studies indicating the inhibitory effects of flavonoids on xanthine oxidase, there is no report on the effect of onion on this enzyme. Therefore, in the present study, the inhibitory effects of onion on xanthine oxidase are investigated. Fresh filtered juice of onion was prepared and its inhibitory effect on guine...

متن کاملThe novel somatostatin analog SOM230 is a potent inhibitor of hormone release by growth hormone- and prolactin-secreting pituitary adenomas in vitro.
To determine the inhibitory profile of the novel somatostatin (SRIF) analog SOM230 with broad SRIF receptor binding, we compared the in vitro effects of SOM230, octreotide (OCT), and SRIF-14 on hormone release by cultures of different types of secreting pituitary adenomas. OCT (10 nM) significantly inhibited GH release in seven of nine GH-secreting pituitary adenoma cultures (range, -26 to -73%...
متن کاملWortmannin, a potent and selective inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase.
Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase is an important enzyme for intracellular signaling. The microbial product wortmannin and some of its analogues have been shown to be potent inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase. The 50% inhibitory concentration for inhibition by wortmannin is 2 to 4 nM. Kinetic analysis demonstrates that wortmannin is a noncompetitive, irreversible inhibitor of phosphatidyli...
متن کاملIdentification of a potent and selective noncovalent cathepsin S inhibitor.
Cathepsin S is considered crucial for normal presentation of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II-restricted antigens by antigen presenting cells to CD4+ T cells. It is a key enzyme for the degradation of the class II-associated invariant chain, a process that is required for effective antigen loading of class II molecules. Here, we report a selective, orally available, high-affinity...
