Alanine dehydrogenase of the N2-fixing blue-green alga, Anabaena cylindrica.

The L-alanine dehydrogenase (ADH) of Anabaena cylindrica has been purified 700-fold. It has a molecular weight of approximately 270,000, has 6 sub-units, each of molecular weight approximately 43,000, and shows activity both in the aminating and deaminating directions. The enzyme is NADH/NAD+ specific and oxaloacetate can partially substitute for pyruvate. The Kampp for NAD+ is 14 muM and 60 muM at low and high NAD concentrations respectively.

Problems in selection of topical anti-inflammatory corticosteroids.

Desonide, a non-fluorinated topical corticosteroid (16-alpha-hydroxyprednisolone acetonide), is compared with its fluorinated analogue, triamcinolone acetonide, as to vasoconstriction ability and epidermal penetration rate. Clinical effectiveness of desonide is further assessed by means of a double-blind paired comparison with an accepted potent fluorinated steroid, betamethasone 17-valerate. It is demonstrated that fluorination of the steroid molecule is not necessary to achieve potent topical anti-inflammatory effect. Vasoconstriction and epidermal penetration are not enhanced by fluorination in the drugs studied.
