Fast method for estimation of the effect of compounds modulating the radical oxidation of sulfhydryl groups on 4-mercapto-2-nitrobenzoic acid applied as a model substance

چکیده
Kinetics of radical oxidation of 4-mercapto-2-nitrobenzoic acid was investigated in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and iron(II) sulfate, i.e. SL hydroxyl radicals generating system. Initial velocities of radical reaction were established by numerization of the course of kinetic dependences. The value of initial reaction velocity was used as a criterion for evaluation of efficacy of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and ascorbic acid as model compounds slowing down the course of radical oxidations. Acting probably via chelation of the iron(II) ion, EDTA in lower concentrations stimulated but in higher concentrations inhibited the course of radical oxidation of 4-mercapto-2-nitrobenzoic acid. Ascorbic acid representing a typical scavenger substance was found to inhibit the above radical oxidation reaction in the whole range of concentrations tested.

Estimation of total, protein-bound, and nonprotein sulfhydryl groups in tissue with Ellman's reagent.
Studies of protein-bound (PB-SH) and nonprotein bound sulfhydryl group (NP-SH) concentrations in tissues under various conditions is a prerequisite to understanding the role of sulfhydryls in living organisms. Many methods have been developed for the measurement of sulfhydryl groups, but these have been concerned chiefly only with the estimation of NP-SH in biological fluids or total SH groups ...
متن کاملDifferential modulation by sulfhydryl redox agents and glutathione of GABA- and glycine-evoked currents in rat retinal ganglion cells.
Some areas of the mammalian CNS, such as the retina, contain not one but two fast inhibitory neurotransmitter systems whose actions are mediated by GABA and glycine. Each inhibitory receptor system is encoded by a separate gene family and has a unique set of agonists and antagonists. Therefore, in rat retinal ganglion cells we were surprised to find that a single agent, extracellular glutathion...

In the present study, we investigate the potentiometric behavior of Cu2+ carbon paste electrodes based on two mercapto compounds 2-Ethylmino-5-Mercapto-1,3,4-Thiadiazole (EAMT) and 2-Acetylamino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (AAMT) self-assembled on gold nano-paricle (GNP) as ionophore. Then, the results obtained from the modified electrodes are compared. The self-assembled ionophores exhibit a ...

Background: Free radicals and reactive oxygen species(ROS) are the most important factors in formation of oxidative stress reaction. Now, radical damage has been suggested to contribute to a wide variety of diseases such as Alzheimer, atherosclerosis and cancer. Transition metal ions in the presence of the various biomolecules produce these active compounds. The aim of this study is introducing...

Mesoporous silica LUS-1 (Laval University Silica) was successfully functionalized by propyl sulfonic acid and was used as a recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of acridine-1,8-diones via a pseudo four component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, dimedone and ammonium acetate (or anilines). The excellent yields, short reaction time, simple work-up procedure, and environmentally friendly condition...
