Synthesis, characterization, DNA binding properties and antioxidant activity of a manganese(II) complex with NO6 chromophore.

J. Inorg. Biochem. 118 , 48-58, (2013)

The mononuclear complex [Mn(thiophenyl-2-carboxylate)(2)(H(3)tea)] (1), where H(3)tea=triethanolamine has been synthesized, characterized, while the DNA binding properties and the antioxidant activity were studied. The crystal structure of 1 is also reported....

Study of anti-inflammatory activities of α-D-glucosylated eugenol.

Arch. Pharm. Res. 36(1) , 109-15, (2013)

Inflammation is an immune response against a variety of noxious stimuli, such as infection, chemicals, and physical injury. Eugenol, a natural phenolic extract, has drawn much attention for its various desirable pharmacological functions and is, therefore, br...

Probing conformational changes in lipoxygenases upon membrane binding: fine-tuning by the active site inhibitor ETYA.

Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1841(1) , 1-10, (2014)

Lipoxygenases (LOXs) are lipid-peroxidizing enzymes that are involved in the metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Their biological activity includes a membrane binding process whose molecular details are not completely understood. The mechanism of enzym...

Involvement of the arachidonic acid cascade in the hypersusceptibility to pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure during diazepam withdrawal.

Biol. Pharm. Bull. 35(12) , 2243-6, (2012)

The present study was designed to clarify whether the arachidonic acid cascade contributes to the decreased threshold for pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure under benzodiazepine withdrawal in mice. The seizure threshold for pentylenetetrazole was significantl...

HPLC method for determination of lipoxygenase positional specific products.

J. Pharm. Biomed. Anal. 84 , 53-8, (2013)

Mammalian lipoxygenases (LOXs) play an important role in physiological and pathological processes through the biosynthesis of lipid mediators-leukotrienes, lipoxins and other arachidonic acid derivatives.There are four major families of LOXs that can be analy...

Nutritional potential of rice bean (Vigna umbellata): an underutilized legume.

J. Food Sci. 78(1) , C8-16, (2013)

Rice bean, a less known and underutilized legume, has emerged as a potential legume because of its nutritional potential. The nutritional quality of rice bean is higher as compared to many other legumes of Vigna family. In the present study, 16 diverse rice b...

Characterization of a bZIP gene highly expressed during ripening of the peach fruit.

Plant Physiol. Biochem. 70 , 462-70, (2013)

A ripening specific bZIP gene of peach was studied by ectopically expressing it in tomato. Two lines, with either a mild or a strong phenotype, respectively, were analyzed in detail. Transgenic fruit morphology was normal, yet the time spent to proceed throug...

Quality-related enzymes in fruit and vegetable products: effects of novel food processing technologies, part 1: high-pressure processing.

Crit. Rev. Food Sci. Nutr 54(1) , 24-63, (2014)

The activity of endogenous deteriorative enzymes together with microbial growth (with associated enzymatic activity) and/or other non-enzymatic (usually oxidative) reactions considerably shorten the shelf life of fruits and vegetable products. Thermal process...

Four 13-lipoxygenases contribute to rapid jasmonate synthesis in wounded Arabidopsis thaliana leaves: a role for lipoxygenase 6 in responses to long-distance wound signals.

New Phytol. 197(2) , 566-75, (2013)

Damage-inducible defenses in plants are controlled in part by jasmonates, fatty acid-derived regulators that start to accumulate within 30 s of wounding a leaf. Using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, we sought to identify the 13-lipoxygenases (...

Transcriptomic analysis of oxylipin biosynthesis genes and chemical profiling reveal an early induction of jasmonates in chickpea roots under drought stress.

Plant Physiol. Biochem. 61 , 115-22, (2012)

Drought is one of the major constraints in subtropical agriculture. Therefore improving water stress tolerance is of great importance to breed for drought tolerance in future. The first plant organ sensing dehydration is the root. Aim of the present work was ...
