Words similar to succinate
Example sentences for: succinate
How can you use “succinate” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Respiratory chain enzymes were measured in 10% homogenates using previously described methods as follows: NADH dehydrogenase [ 5 ] , NADH cytochrome c reductase [ 5 ] , succinate dehydrogenase [ 6 ] , succinate cytochrome c reductase [ 6 ] , cytochrome c oxidase [ 7 ] , and citrate synthase [ 8 ] . Enzyme activities were expressed as μmol/min/g of wet weight tissue.
It is a mixture of eight stereoisomers in equal amounts designated "dl" or all-rac tocopherol and does have antioxidant properties [ 4 ] . Thus, different forms of vitamin E can have different antioxidant properties as well as differences in their absorption, distribution, and metabolism [ 4 ] . There are also reports that some forms of vitamin E have activity against cancer cells in vitro [ 3 5 ] . For example, tocotrienol and vitamin E succinate are reported to have antiproliferative activity in human cancer cells whereas some forms of vitamin E are reported to induce apoptosis in cancer cell types but not in normal cell types [ 3 ] . Specifically, these apoptogenic forms include RRR-α-tocopheryl succinate and RRR-δ-tocopherol while the α, β, and γ tocopherol and acetate derivatives of tocopherol were not apoptogenic [ 3 ] . There are few reports on the use of vitamin E for treating tumorous cancers in vivo but the results are inconsistent [ 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ] . It is therefore essential that the form of vitamin E used in any research study as well as the dosage and the mode of administration be defined.
The in silico analysis predicted that the pta -strain optimally shifted the carbon flux from acetate to ethanol in P pta 3. However, in P pta 4, the optimal metabolic by-products included lactate, ethanol, and pyruvate, and under completely anaerobic conditions, succinate was also optimally produced as a metabolic byproduct.
The general term vitamin E refers to eight naturally occurring and synthetic tocopherols and tocotrienols and their acetate and succinate derivatives.
MHC = myosin heavy chain; RT-PCR = reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction; SDH = succinate dehydrogenase; SERCA = sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca 2+-ATPase.
