How can you use “coenzyme” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In the case of pNPP hydrolysis, others have reported both saturated and unsaturated fatty acyl coenzyme A esters stimulate PP5 activity, with concentrations required for half-maximal stimulation approximately 10-fold lower than those of their corresponding free fatty acids [ 21 ] . We therefore tested whether a saturated fatty acyl coenzyme A ester could also stimulate Ppt1p.
Unlike PP5, the activity of Ppt1p toward 32P-casein was not stimulated by AA, arachidoyl coenzyme A, or linoleoyl coenzyme A over a range in concentration from 10-500 μM (Fig.
Statins, potent compounds that inhibit cholesterol synthesis in the liver by blocking 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA), have been reported to induce osteoblast activity and lead to bone formation, both in tissue culture and in rats and mice [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 ] . These findings, if confirmed and extended to include humans, have the potential to introduce immediate new treatment options to patients with low bone mass and osteoporosis.
Patients on dialysis have more coronary artery disease (CAD) and CAD-related mortality than the general population [ 1 ] . Elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol level is an independent risk factor for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) [ 2 ] . The 3-hydroxy-3methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins) have been associated with decreased all-cause mortality in dialysis patients in a registry-based study [ 3 ] and clinical trials are underway to confirm this benefit [ 4 5 ] .
HMG CoA = 3-Hydroxy-3-methylgluatryl coenzyme A; MIRACL = Myocardial Ischemia Reduction with Aggressive Cholesterol Lowering; LDL = low density lipoprotein; RR = relative risk; CI = confidence interval; HDL = high density lipoprotein; PTCA = percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty; CABG = coronary artery bypass graft; ECG = electrocardiogram; A-2-Z = Aggrastat to Zocor; ACS = acute coronary syndrome; PROVE IT = Pravastatin or Atorvastatin Evaluation and Infection Therapy.
