UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008099	Liver	A large lobed glandular organ in the abdomen of vertebrates that is responsible for detoxification, metabolism, synthesis and storage of various substances.	Livers
D010084	Oxidation-Reduction	A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471).	Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010847	Picolines	A group of compounds that are monomethyl derivatives of pyridines. (From Dorland, 28th ed)	Picoline
D011804	Quinolines
D011805	Quinolinic Acids	Dicarboxylic acids with a PYRIDINE backbone. Quinolinic Acids are downstream products of the KYNURENINE pathway which metabolize amino acid TRYPTOPHAN.	Acids, Quinolinic
D006912	Hydroxyquinolines	The 8-hydroxy derivatives inhibit various enzymes and their halogenated derivatives, though neurotoxic, are used as topical anti-infective agents, among other uses.	Quinolinols,Chiniofon
D015095	3-Hydroxyanthranilic Acid	An oxidation product of tryptophan metabolism. It may be a free radical scavenger and a carcinogen.	3 Hydroxyanthranilic Acid,Acid, 3-Hydroxyanthranilic
D062365	Aminobenzoates	Derivatives of BENZOIC ACID that contain one or more amino groups attached to the benzene ring structure. Included under this heading are a broad variety of acid forms, salts, esters, and amides that include the aminobenzoate structure.	Aminobenzoic Acids,Acids, Aminobenzoic
