Melatonin and its kynurenin-like oxidation products affect the microbicidal activity of neutrophils
(Elsevier B.V., 2006-02-01)
Activated phagocytes oxidize the hormone melatonin to N-1-acethyl-N-2-formyl-5-methoxykynuramine (AFMK) in a superoxide anion- and myeloperoxidase-dependent reaction. We examined the effect of melatonin, AFMK and its ...

Inhibition of in vivo leishmanicidal mechanisms by tempol: Nitric oxide down-regulation and oxidant scavenging
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2008)
Tempol (4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy) has long been known to protect experimental animals from the injury associated with oxidative and inflammatory conditions. In the latter case, a parallel decrease in ...
Antiherpes simplex virus type 2 activity of the antimicrobial peptide subtilosin
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2014-11)
In the present study we evaluated the antiviral activity of subtilosin, a cyclical peptide isolated from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, against herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) in cell cultures and we investigated subtilosin ...
Fungicidal activity of a phospholipase A2-derived synthetic peptide variant against Candida albicans
(2007-09)
pEM-2, a 13-mer synthetic peptide variant derived from myotoxin II, a phospholipase A2 homologue present in Bothrops asper snake venom,
has shown potent bactericidal activity in previous studies due to the combination of ...
Microbicidal Action of Indole-3-Acetic Acid Combined with Horseradish Peroxidase on Prototheca zopfii from Bovine Mastitis
(SPRINGER, 2010)
We investigated the toxic effect of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) combined with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on Prototheca zopfii from bovine mastitis. P. zopfii isolates were identified and characterized by morpho-physiological ...
Microbicidal effect of medicinal plant extracts (Psidium guajava Liun. and Carica papaya Linn.) upon bacteria isolated from fish muscle and known diarrheia in children
(Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2019)
High concentrations of sodium chloride improve microbicidal activity of ibuprofen against common cystic fibrosis pathogens
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2018-05-17)
Ibuprofen (IBU-H), a widely used anti-inflammatory, also shows a marked antimicrobial effect against several bacterial species, including those involved in cystic fibrosis such as Pseudomona aeruginosa, methicillin resistant ...
