Mechanisms of action of isoniazidGraham S Timmins
College of Pharmacy, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA
Mol Microbiol 62:1220-7. 2006....
Requirements for nitric oxide generation from isoniazid activation in vitro and inhibition of mycobacterial respiration in vivoGraham S Timmins
College of Pharmacy, Toxicology Program, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque, 87131, USA
J Bacteriol 186:5427-31. 2004..We also provide in vivo evidence that INH-derived NO* can inhibit key mycobacterial respiratory enzymes, which may contribute to the overall antimycobacterial action of INH...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis prevents inflammasome activationSharon S Master
Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA
Cell Host Microbe 3:224-32. 2008..Thus, we uncovered a previously masked role for IL-1beta in the control of Mtb and a mycobacterial system that prevents inflammasome and, therefore, IL-1beta activation...
Nitrosative stress inhibits production of the virulence factor alginate in mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosaSimon R Wood
College of Pharmacy, Toxicology Program, Health Sciences Center, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, NM 87131, USA
Free Radic Res 41:208-15. 2007..Our data suggest that the lowered levels of innate-immune nitrosative mediators (such as GSNO) in the CF lung exacerbate the effects of mucoid P. aeruginosa, by failing to suppress alginate biosynthesis...
Confinement-induced quorum sensing of individual Staphylococcus aureus bacteriaEric C Carnes
Department of Chemical and Nuclear Engineering, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA
Nat Chem Biol 6:41-5. 2010..To demonstrate the benefit of confinement-induced quorum sensing to individuals, we showed that quorum-sensing bacteria have significantly greater viability over non-QS bacteria...
Endothelin-1-mediated increase in reactive oxygen species and NADPH Oxidase activity in hearts of aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) null miceAmie K Lund
College of Pharmacy, School of Medicine, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, USA
Toxicol Sci 88:265-73. 2005..In addition, the ET-1-mediated increase in ROS appears to be initiated via increased NAD(P)H oxidase activity...
Pharmacological modulation of cGMP levels by phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors as a therapeutic strategy for treatment of respiratory pathology in cystic fibrosisJens F Poschet
Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, University of New Mexico School of Medicine, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 293:L712-9. 2007..Our study suggests that phosphodiesterase 5 inhibition provides an opportunity for simultaneous and concerted correction of seemingly disparate complications in CF...
Nitric oxide generated from isoniazid activation by KatG: source of nitric oxide and activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosisGraham S Timmins
College of Pharmacy, Toxicology Program, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, USA
Antimicrob Agents Chemother 48:3006-9. 2004..In conclusion, INH-derived NO* has biological activity, which directly contributes to the antimycobacterial action of INH...
Inactivation of a bacterial virulence pheromone by phagocyte-derived oxidants: new role for the NADPH oxidase in host defenseJacob M Rothfork
Research Service, Albuquerque Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Albuquerque, NM 87108, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 101:13867-72. 2004..Thus, oxidant-mediated inactivation of an autoinducing peptide from S. aureus is a critical innate defense mechanism against infection with this pathogen...
Low concentration of arsenite exacerbates UVR-induced DNA strand breaks by inhibiting PARP-1 activityXu Jun Qin
Program of Toxicology, College of Pharmacy, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131 0001, USA
Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 232:41-50. 2008..Together, these findings show that arsenite at low concentration exacerbates UVR-induced DNA strand breaks by inhibiting PARP-1 activity, which may represent an important mechanism underlying the co-carcinogenicity of arsenic...
Direct visualization of mouse brain oxygen distribution by electron paramagnetic resonance imaging: application to focal cerebral ischemiaJiangang Shen
Center of Biomedical Research Excellence, College of Pharmacy, University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, USA
J Cereb Blood Flow Metab 29:1695-703. 2009..We believe that this imaging method can be used for monitoring the effects of therapeutic intervention aimed at enhancing brain O(2) supply, which is crucial in minimizing brain injury after stroke...
Mycobacteria inhibit nitric oxide synthase recruitment to phagosomes during macrophage infectionBarbara H Miller
Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of Michigan School of Medicine, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109 0620, USA
Infect Immun 72:2872-8. 2004..certain microorganisms have the ability to prevent or reduce colocalization with iNOS; and (iv). spatial exclusion of iNOS may play a role in Mycobacterium tuberculosis pathogenesis...
