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 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...
متن کاملDiabetes and Oxidative Stress: The Mechanism and Action
Abstract Diabetes mellitus is one of the major metabolic disorders. Diabetes is recognized for severe complications including diabetic nephropathy, neuropathy and retinopathy. Long-lasting effect of hyperglycemia results in increased oxidative stress. Oxidative stress results from an imbalance between radical-generating and radical scavenging systems. Increased oxidative stress has been shown ...
متن کاملThe kynureninase of Pseudomonas fluorescens.
Kotake and Nakayama (1) observed the conversion of kynurenine to anthranilic acid and alanine by a mammalian liver extract. Subsequently the enzyme responsible for this reaction in the mammal was partly purified (2,3) and the enzyme, prepared from vitamin Be-deficient animals, was shown to require pyridoxal phosphate for its maximal activity (2). During an investigation of tryptophan metabolism...
متن کاملThe Role of Fetuin-A in Diabetes and Obesity: The Mechanism and Action
Fetuin-A is a phosphorylated glycoprotein produced by liver.It by binding to calcium ion inhibits ectopic calcium deposition and protects vascular calcification. Fetuin-A acts as a multifactorial protein and its role has been documented from brain development to bone remodeling and immune function, regulation of insulin activity, hepatocyte growth factor activity and inhibition lymphocyte blast...
