Steroid metabolism in ocular tissues of the rabbit.
The metabolism of cortisol and other steroids was studied in normal untreated rabbit iris-ciliary body and cornea as part of an investigation into the mechanism of glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma. Cortisol is readily converted to the inactive metabolite cortisone by these eye tissues indicating the presence of an 11beta-oxidoreductase system. This reaction is reversible with cortisone being con...

متن کاملValidity of β-D-glucosidase activity measured in dried blood samples for detection of potential Gaucher disease patients.
OBJECTIVES Gaucher disease (GD) diagnosis relies on the demonstration of deficient β-D-glucosidase (GBA) activity in cellular homogenates. Diagnosis process, however, can be delayed as (i) some GD symptoms are non-specific; and (ii) diagnostic tests are performed in specialized laboratories. These difficulties negatively impact on timely access of patients to therapy. GBA assay in dried blood s...
متن کاملProduction of α - Glucosidase Inhibitor by β - Glucosidase Inhibitor - Producing
A soil microorganism producing αand β-glucosidase inhibitors was identified as Bacillus lentimorbus, based on the fatty acid and morphological analyses, along with biochemical and physiological tests. The α-glucosidase inhibitor was highly produced by this strain in a culture medium containing 0.25% of sodium glutamate and 0.5% of glucose, pH 8.0 at 30C for 2 days. The α-glucosidase inhibitor f...
متن کاملthe influence of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) residue managements on the β-glucosidase activity in soil
β-glucosidase is involved in the degradation of cellulose in soil and has the potential for monitoring biological soil quality. the objective of this study was to determine the effects of barley residue placement, burning, nitrogen fertilizer and tillage management on β-glucosidase enzyme after a period of 90 days. a field experiment was carried out based on a completely randomized design with ...
