Inhibition of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-induced nitroblue tetrazolium reduction in mouse peritoneal macrophages by various tumor promotion inhibitors. 1985

Y Ohkawa, and K Iwata, and H Shibuya, and N Inui

The effects of various inhibitors on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) in mouse peritoneal macrophages were investigated. The reduction was inhibited by phospholipase A2 inhibitors, such as dibromoacetophenone, the lipoxygenase inhibitor nordihydroguaiaretic acid, an NADH-dehydrogenase inhibitor, the microfilament inhibitor cytochalasin B, oxygen radical scavengers such as superoxide dismutase, antioxidants such as butyl hydroxyanisole and non-specific inhibitors such as retinoic acid. The reduction was not affected by the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin or the H2O2 scavenger catalase.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.

D009245 NADH Dehydrogenase A flavoprotein and iron sulfur-containing oxidoreductase that catalyzes the oxidation of NADH to NAD. In eukaryotes the enzyme can be found as a component of mitochondrial electron transport complex I. Under experimental conditions the enzyme can use CYTOCHROME C GROUP as the reducing cofactor. The enzyme was formerly listed as EC 1.6.2.1. NADH Cytochrome c Reductase,Diaphorase (NADH Dehydrogenase),NADH (Acceptor) Oxidoreductase,NADH Cytochrome c Oxidoreductase,Dehydrogenase, NADH
D009580 Nitroblue Tetrazolium Colorless to yellow dye that is reducible to blue or black formazan crystals by certain cells; formerly used to distinguish between nonbacterial and bacterial diseases, the latter causing neutrophils to reduce the dye; used to confirm diagnosis of chronic granulomatous disease. Nitro-BT,Nitrotetrazolium Blue,Tetrazolium Nitroblue,Blue, Nitrotetrazolium,Nitroblue, Tetrazolium,Tetrazolium, Nitroblue
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
D010704 Phorbols The parent alcohol of the tumor promoting compounds from CROTON OIL (Croton tiglium). Tigliane,Tiglianes

D005260 Female Females
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D000975 Antioxidants Naturally occurring or synthetic substances that inhibit or retard oxidation reactions. They counteract the damaging effects of oxidation in animal tissues.
