Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of nonenzymatic glycation on functional and structural properties of hemoglobin.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in the presence of H(2)O(2), HbA(1c) degrades DNA and protein more efficiently than Hb a(0) and formation of carbonyl content, an index of oxidative stress, is higher by H bA( 1c).
Journal Article
Release of iron from haemoglobin--a possible source of free radicals in diabetes mellitus.
TL;DR: Increased blood glucose in diabetes mellitus stimulates nonenzymatic glycosylation of several proteins, including haemoglobin, which might produce free radicals, which, in turn, might be causing oxidative stress in diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Glycation of Hemoglobin on its Interaction with Trifluoperazine
TL;DR: The results suggest that drug action on hemoglobin is influenced by glycation-induced structural modification of the protein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on the interaction of hematoporphyrin with hemoglobin.
TL;DR: Spectrophotometric and spectrofluorimetric studies reveal that an interaction occurs between hemoglobin and hematoporphyrin, a photosensitizing drug used in photodynamic therapy, and appears to be predominantly electrostatic and enthalpy-driven in the lower range of porphyrIn concentration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Haematoporphyrin enhances the peroxidase activity of haemoglobin
TL;DR: Spectrophotometric study reveals that an interaction occurs between haemoglobin and haematoporphyrin which leads to a conformational change of the protein, which varies in a positive manner with the stoichiometric ratio of haenoglobin/haemoglobin.
