Influence of carboxylic acids on the stereospecific nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-independent lac…
1971
Leuconostoc mesenteroides increased its lactic acid production from glucose threefold when malic acid was added to the culture. This increase resulted also in a reduction of the ratio of d -lactic acid to l -lactic acid (31.5 to 1.23). Addition of malic acid increased 6.5-fold the specific activity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-linked l -lactate dehydrogenase and increased 3.2-fold that of NAD-linked d -lactate dehydrogenase. The Michaelis constant ( K m ) for NAD of the NAD-linked l -lactate dehydrogenase increased with the addition of malate, but no change was observed in the K m values for the respective d -enzyme. The effect of carboxylic acids on the NAD-linked l -lactate…
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide-Dependent and Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide-Independent Lactate Dehydrogenases in Homofermentative and Heterofe…
1971
Three homofermentative ( Lactobacillus plantarum B38, L. plantarum B33, Pediococcus pentosaceus B30) and three heterofermentative ( Leuconostoc mesenteroides 39, L. oenos B70, Lactobacillus brevis ) lactic acid bacteria were examined for the presence or absence of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent and NAD-independent d - and l -lactate dehydrogenases. Two of the six strains investigated, P. pentosaceus and L. oenos , did not exhibit an NAD-independent enzyme activity capable of reducing dichlorophenol indophenol. The p H optima of the lactic dehydrogenases were determined. The NAD-dependent enzymes from homofermentative strains exhibited optima at p H 7.8 to 8.8, whereas va…
Regulation of NADPH oxidase-mediated superoxide production by acetylation and deacetylation
2021
Oral treatment of apolipoprotein E-knockout (ApoE-KO) mice with the putative sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) activator resveratrol led to a reduction of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase activity in the heart. In contrast, the SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 enhanced the superoxide production in isolated human polymorphonuclear granulocytes. In human monocytic THP-1 cells, phorbol ester-stimulated superoxide production was enhanced by inhibitors of histone deacetylases (HDACs; including quisinostat, trichostatin A (TSA), PCI34051, and tubastatin A) and decreased by inhibitors of histone acetyltransferases [such as garcinol, curcumin, and histone acetyltransferase (HAT) Inhibitor II]. Thes…
The Effect of Nicotinamide on Microcirculatory Function, Tissue Oxygenation and Bioenergetic Status in Rat Tumors
1994
The failure of many attempts to improve tumor oxygenation - and thus the outcome of standard radiotherapy - may be due to the fact that the occurrence of hypoxia in tumors is not solely a result of diffusion-limited “chronic” hypoxia but is also due to temporary flow cessations in microregional tumor perfusion which have been shown to occur in tumor tissue1. As a result, attempts have more recently been made to reduce hypoxia in tumors through the reduction of tumor perfusion fluctuations. The benzamide analog nicotinamide is an agent which has recently received attention in this respect. It has been reported to be an effective, tumor-specific radiosensitizer in several tumor models, an eff…
The electrochemical reduction of thioisonicotinamide in an aqueous medium
1998
Abstract The electrochemical reduction of thioisonicotinamide NRCSNH 2 has been examined in an aqueous medium between H 0 =−1 and pH=13.7. As shown by cyclic voltammetry and polarography, a global 2e − reversible transfer is followed by two successive first-order chemical reactions and a 2e − , 2H + reduction (EC 1 C 2 E process). A mechanism is proposed, beginning with the 2e − reduction of NRCSNH 2 to the formal diionized form NRC − (SH)(NH 3 + ), the first chemical reaction, C 1 , being a formal proton transfer which yields the 4- gem aminosulfanylmethylpyridine; the rate constant of this reaction is 2×10 4 s −1 in acidic medium and diminishes in neutral medium. The second process, C 2 …
