1 | In order to gain insights into the mechanisms of this stimulation, we have compared the kinetics of human myeloperoxidase-dependent phenol, hydroquinone, and catechol metabolism. | catechol | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
2 | The specificity (Vmax/Km) of hydroquinone for myeloperoxidase was found to be 5-fold greater than that of catechol and 16-fold greater than that of phenol. | catechol | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
3 | These specificities for myeloperoxidase-dependent metabolism inversely correlated with the respective one-electron oxidation potentials of hydroquinone, catechol, and phenol and suggested that phenol- and catechol-induced stimulation of myeloperoxidase-dependent hydroquinone metabolism cannot simply be explained by interaction of hydroquinone with stimulant-derived radicals. | catechol | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
4 | These specificities for myeloperoxidase-dependent metabolism inversely correlated with the respective one-electron oxidation potentials of hydroquinone, catechol, and phenol and suggested that phenol- and catechol-induced stimulation of myeloperoxidase-dependent hydroquinone metabolism cannot simply be explained by interaction of hydroquinone with stimulant-derived radicals. | catechol | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
5 | These specificities for myeloperoxidase-dependent metabolism inversely correlated with the respective one-electron oxidation potentials of hydroquinone, catechol, and phenol and suggested that phenol- and catechol-induced stimulation of myeloperoxidase-dependent hydroquinone metabolism cannot simply be explained by interaction of hydroquinone with stimulant-derived radicals. | catechol | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
6 | These specificities for myeloperoxidase-dependent metabolism inversely correlated with the respective one-electron oxidation potentials of hydroquinone, catechol, and phenol and suggested that phenol- and catechol-induced stimulation of myeloperoxidase-dependent hydroquinone metabolism cannot simply be explained by interaction of hydroquinone with stimulant-derived radicals. | catechol | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
7 | Phenol (100 microM), catechol (20 microM), and imidazole (50 mM) did, however, all increase the specificity (Vmax/Km) of hydroquinone for myeloperoxidase, indicating that these three compounds may be stimulating hydroquinone metabolism by a common mechanism. | catechol | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
