Les EROs, à cause du stress oxydant qu’elles génèrent, sont impliquées dans de nombreuses pathologies, notamment l’athérosclérose. Les monoamine oxydases (MAOs) sont deux flavoenzymes responsables de la dégradation des catécholamines et des amines biogènes comme la sérotonine ; elles sont une source importante d’EROs. Il a été montré qu’elles peuvent être impliquées dans la prolifération cellulaire ou l’apoptose du fait du stress oxydant qu’elles génèrent. Ce travail de thèse a montré que la MAO-A, en dégradant son substrat (sérotonine ou tyramine), active une voie de signalisation mitogène particulière : la voie métalloprotéase- 2/sphingolipides (MMP2/sphingolipides), et contribue à la prolifération de cellules musculaire lisses vasculaires induite par ces monoamines. De plus, une étude complémentaire a confirmé l’importance des EROs comme stimulus mitogène (utilisation de peroxyde d’hydrogène exogène), et a décrit plus spécifiquement les étapes en amont de l’activation de MMP2, ainsi que l’activation par la MMP2 de la sphingomyélinase neutre (première enzyme de la cascade des sphingolipides).

Academic Editor: Derek J. McPhee Received: 25 November 2014 / Accepted: 15 February 2015 / Published: 19 February 2015 Abstract: Glycation is an ageing reaction of naturally occurring sugars with dermal proteins, with clinical signs appearing in vivo around age 30, and increasing steadily/regularly with age. The suppleness of the dermis is affected by the formation of bridges between proteins and sugars (Maillard’s reaction). The accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in skin plays a very important role in skin ageing. Therefore, natural compounds or extracts that possess antiglycation activities may have great anti-ageing potential. In the present study, Silybum marianum flower extract (SMFE) was demonstrated to possess antiglycation activity. We found that SMFE inhibits glycation reaction between BSA and glucose. In addition, antiglycation activity of SMFE was confirmed in a human skin explants model.

    1-ALKYL--1-PHENYLHYDRAZ INES: THEIR SYNTHESIS AND OXIDATIVE REARRANGEMENT LACELAN MACLEAN B.Sc. Ph.D. Chemistry UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH 1977 To Irod parents ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. A.J. Bellamy for his advice, encouragement. and assistance throughout the duration of this study. I also thank the staff and fellow students of the Chemistry Department for their general helpfulness: in particular Dr. E. Stefaniuk and Mr. C.D. Anderson for supplying samples of 2-forxnylstilbene and pent-3-en-2--one respectively, and Mrs. J. Gorrie for her care in typing this thesis. Finally, I thank the Science Research Council for financial support. L.M. I have composed this thesis which describes my own work. Where the work of other authors is referred to, this is clearly indicated. ABSTRACT OF THESIS Some historical aspects of the oxidation reactions of 1,1-disub- stituted hydrazines are reviewed. In particular, the evidence for the proposed intermediacy of diazenes in these reactions is outlined and the nature of the oxidation products is considered in the broader context of diazene-generating reactions. The synthesis of l-alkyl-l-phenylhydrazines has been examined and several preparative procedures are discussed. The alkylation of the sodium salt of phenyihydrazine with the appropriate alkyl halides was found to be the most successful method; the hydrazines prepared in this way all had substituents of the allylic type. Purification (to remove residual phenyihydrazine) can be achieved by selective recrystallisation of the hydrochloride derivative from benzene. Some limitations of this general method are described. The oxidation studies were carried out using lead tetra-acetate and mercuric oxide.

  • HAZARD ASSESSMENT REPORT Hydrazine
    HAZARD ASSESSMENT REPORT Hydrazine CAS No. 302-01-2 Chemicals Evaluation and Research Institute (CERI), Japan This report was prepared by CERI in collaboration with National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NITE) under the sponsorship of New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). Preface to the English Version of the Hazard Assessment Reports For six years from April 2001 to March 2007, Chemicals Evaluation and Research Institute (CERI/Japan) was engaged in a project named “Chemical Risk Assessment and Development of Risk Assessment Methods” under "Comprehensive Chemical Substance Assessment and Management Program" funded by New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO/Japan). Under this project, about 150 chemical substances were selected among those designated as Class-I Chemicals in the Law for Pollutant Release and Transfer Register and Promotion of Chemical Management (hereafter PRTR Law)1). The selection criteria of these chemicals were their priorities for risk assessment based on their production levels and environmental/human health concerns. CERI developed the hazard assessment reports of these selected chemical substances based on the review and evaluation of the environmental and human health hazard data obtained from the existing evaluation documents released by the regulatory agencies and international organizations as well as those from the published scientific literatures. The data review and compilation of the reports were conducted according to the guidelines2) and the guidance manual2) developed for this project. The proposed hazard assessment reports by CERI were reviewed by the experts in the relevant scientific fields from both inside and outside this project for accuracy, relevance and completeness. The final reports were published in Japanese after going through the deliberation by the “Council on Chemical Substances” under the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI/Japan), which is responsible for regulation of chemical substances in Japan.

Clements II Synthesis of Insecticidal Mono- and Diacylhydrazines for Disruption of K+ Voltage-Gated Channels, Elucidation of Regiochemistry, and Description of Conformational Isomerism by NMR Spectroscopy and Computation Joseph Shelby Clements II ABSTRACT Based on the success of diacyl-tert-butylhydrazines RH-5849 and RH-1266 in controlling agricultural crop pests, we endeavored to synthesize our own diacylbenzyl- and arylhydrazine derivatives for use against the malaria vector Anopheles gambiae. In the process of producing a library of compounds for assay against An. gambiae, it became clear that employing regioselective acylation techniques (in molecules that feature two nucleophilic, acyclic nitrogen atoms α to one another) would be imperative. Synthesis of the library derivatives proceeded rapidly and after topical assay, we found three compounds that were more toxic than the RH- series leads. One of the three displayed an LD50 value of half that of RH-1266, though patch clamp assay concluded that toxicity was not necessarily linked to inhibition of mosquito K+ channel Kv2.1.

It has been found that under the optimum condition (pH 5.0) in cyclic voltammetry, the oxidation of PH occurred at a potential of about 250 mV on the surface of the modified electrode. The linear range of 0.6 to 900.0 µM and a detection limit of 1.31 × 10 -7 M were observed for PH in optimum conditions. The modified electrode showed an excellent character for electrocatalytic oxidization of PH, hydrazine (HZ) and sulfite (ST). Finally, this method was also examined as a selective, simple and precise electrochemical sensor for the determination of PH, HZ and ST in real samples such as urine and water samples. Keywords: Phenylhydrazine, hydrazine, sulfite, carbon nanotube paste electrode, voltammetry 1. INTRODUCTION Carbon paste electrode (CPE) is a special kind of heterogeneous carbon electrode consisting of mixture prepared from carbon powder (as graphite, glassy carbon and others carbonaceous materials) and a suitable water-immiscible or non-conducting binder [1-3]. The use of carbon paste as an electrode was initially reported by Adams [4].

A Contribution to the Study of Hydroxyazo-bodies. The researches which have been made in recent years with regard to the constitution of "quinone hydrazones" prove conclusively that these bodies under the conditions of examination are not quinone derivatives but hydroxyazo-compounds; where quinone hydrazones might have been expected rearrangement invariably seems to take place with formation of hydroxyazo-bodies. Thus Borsche (Ann.1907, 357,171) found that by condensing o-nitrophenylhydrazine with p-benzoquinone there resulted not the quinone hydrazone but the isomeric hydroxyazo-body:- o h2h n h c 6h 4no2 n :n c 6h 4k o 2 o o 0 OH The spectroscopic evidence,at any rate for the para-quinones, also supports the view that where quinone hydrazones might be ex­ pected hydroxyazo-bodies are formed.
