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 کاملThe Mechanism of Action of 6-phosphogluconate Dehydrogenase.
6-Phosphogluconate dehydrogenase from Candida utilis catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of 2-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate. The 3-keto-2-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate, an intermediate of the reaction, is reduced to 2-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate and decarboxylated to I-deoxyribulose 5-phosphate when incubated with the enzyme and TPNH. The decarboxylation process does not occur in the absence of the redu...
متن کاملThe Mechanism of Action of Glyceraldehyde-3- Phosphate Dehydrogenase*
comprises both an oxidation and a phosphorylation and must therefore consist of two successive steps. Until recently there was considerable doubt as to which came first, the oxidation or the phosphorylation. Early speculations (l-4) that the initial step was the uptake of phosphate to form a 1,3-diphosphoglyceraldehyde have proved impossible of confirmation (5-7), and it has recently become cle...
متن کاملDrosophila melanogaster alcohol dehydrogenase: mechanism of aldehyde oxidation and dismutation.
Drosophila alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh) catalyses the oxidation of both alcohols and aldehydes. In the latter case, the oxidation is followed by a reduction of the aldehyde, i.e. a dismutation reaction. At high pH, dismutation is accompanied by a small release of NADH, which is not observed at neutral pH. Previously it has been emphasized that kinetic coefficients obtained by measuring the incre...
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...
