Journal ArticleDOI
Staurosporine inhibition of intracellular free Ca2+ transients in mitogen-stimulated Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced formation of ethane and n-pentane by rat hepatocytes in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide.
TL;DR: Although DMSO apparently stimulated lipid peroxidation by hepatocytes, as measured by ethane and n-pentane formation, there was no increase in the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive material.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comment on the absence of calcium regulation of human thioredoxin reductase
John E. Oblong,Garth Powis +1 more
TL;DR: The activity of a purified form of human placental thioredoxin reductase was found to not be affected by mM concentrations of calcium, well above intra‐ and extracellular physiological levels, and the suggestion that an E‐F hand is present in Escherichia coli thioreductase is strongly contested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic stability of experimental chemotherapeutic agents in hepatocyte: tumor cell co-cultures
TL;DR: Hepatocyte co-culture methodology provides a simple and objective means, amenable to large-scale screening, of distringuishing metabolic activation or inactivation of a given compound from other pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic factors with a minimum of material.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pharmacokinetics and metabolism of the antitumor agent sulfamic acid 1,7-heptanediyl ester (sulfamic acid diester) in the mouse and beagle dog.
TL;DR: Sulfamic acid diester was taken up by blood cells and only slowly eliminated with a whole blood gamma half-life of 42 h in the dog and 32H in the mouse, and did not react with glutathione in buffer, whole blood, or 100 000 g rat liver cytosol.
