Until now only few data have been reported on biochemically explicable pharmacological effects of flavonoid structures. When tested against arachidonic acid metabolism many flavonoids were found to be effective against the lipoxygenase and cyclo-oxygenase pathways. Some flavonoids were predominant inhibitors

Photooxidation reactions of 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) have been carried out in the presence of cyclometalated neutral and cationic iridium (Ir) complexes 1-6 as singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) sensitizers in order to investigate the (1)O(2) generation quantum yield and photosensitizing durability of the

Copper-induced peroxidation of liposomal palmitoyllinoleoyl-phosphatidylcholine (PLPC) is inhibited by alpha-tocopherol at micromolar concentrations. In our previous study we found that when the liposomes contain phosphatidylserine (PS), nanomolar concentrations of Toc were sufficient to inhibit peroxidation. In an attempt to gain
Interactions of sulfhydryl agents and soybean lipoxygenase inhibitors.
Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 123(1), 156-162 (1984-08-30)
Irreversible inhibition of soybean lipoxygenase-1 (SL-1) was accomplished via a controlled potential oxidative electrolysis of 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene (1,5-DHN) at +0.8 V vs SCE. The inactivation of SL-1 with this known inhibitor was greatly enhanced under these electrolytic conditions to which the
