The selective stimulation of respiration in mixed cultures of bacteria and protozoa
… for short incubation periods. Sodium azide, 2, 4-dinitrophenol, and sodium fluoride were used for the selective stimulation of respiration or inhibition of assimilation processes. Sodium azide was the only agent which produced a marked degree of stimulation of respiration for either glucose, …

Characterization of Luteinizing Hormone - Releasing Hormone (Lhrh) Release From Rat Hypothalamus Using an in Vitro System
… leakage from intracellular Ca('++) stores (2,4-dinitrophenol) stimulated LHRH release. K('+)-evoked release of LHRH is also thought to involve a microtubular transport mechanism, since colchicine (10('-6) or 10('-5) M) inhibited K('+)-stimulated LHRH output. However, 10('-4) M colchicine …

A study of several factors incident to the absorption of choline from the small intestine of the albino rat
… by such enzyme inhibitors as phlorizin and 2, 4-dinitrophenol. Selective areas of choline absorption, and the effects of several enzyme inhibitors were, then, selected as the areas for investigation in the study described here.</p>

The role of respiration-dependent proton translocation in the acid tolerance of Gluconobacter oxydans
… were conducted using sodium azide and 2,4-dinitrophenol; both compounds prevented the acidification that otherwise occurred following glycerol addition. Because glycerol oxidation reversed the NaCl-induced flow of H + into the cell, it appeared that respiration might function to protect …

Chemical Inhibition of Nitrification: Evaluating Methods to Detect and Characterize Inhibition and the Role of Selected Stress Responses Upon Exposure to Oxidative and Hydrophobic Toxins
… metal), cyanide, octanol (hydrophobic) and 2,4-dinitrophenol (respiratory uncoupler). Of the different chemicals tested, the oxidative and hydrophobic chemicals showed severe nitrification inhibition relative to other treatment processes and therefore deserved further investigation. For …

Evaluating mitochondrial uncoupling potentials of A7E and DNP in Saccharomyces cerevisiae : implications for human obesity
… diminishes increasing basal metabolic rate. 2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) successfully uncouples but was banned in 1938 because of a narrow window between efficacy and toxicity. PURPOSE: To measure the ability of a blend that reportedly contains 17-dihydroxy-delta-5-etiocholane-7-one and …

AMP Deaminase 3 overexpression regulates cellular energetics and signaling for PGC-1α activation.
… and then treated for 1 h with 0.6mM 2,4 dinitrophenol (DNP). Nucleotides, amino acids, and proteins were extracted immediately after DNP treatment and measured by UPLC and Western Blot. To confirm DNP was not toxic, myotubes were washed, and samples were collected 1 h later for …

One Size Does Not Fit All: A Qualitative Study Exploring Unlicensed Weight Loss Drug Use In Women
… weight loss (UWL) drugs which comprise of 2,4 dinitrophenol (DNP), sibutramine and rimonabant are just one method used in enhancing and improving the body in line with social expectations. However, previous research exploring the use of these drugs has been confined to male dominated …

Biochemical Studies on Uncoupling Proteins and Glucose Metabolism in Skeletal Muscle
… L6 myotubes with the uncoupling agent, dinitrophenol resulted in an increase in glucose uptake, which was presumably a response to mitochondrial uncoupling. The glucose analogue, 2-deoxyglose is taken up into cells and phosphorylated but is not further metabolized. When 80% of the …

Transport of 5-methyltetrahydrofolic Acid Across the Rat Jejunum
… acid. Both 5-formyltetrahydrofolic acid and 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) were found to depress the tissue uptake and serosal transfer of 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid if present in the mucosal medium. 5-formyltetrahydrofolic acid may compete for the brush-border binding site and thus reduce tissue …

The Role of Multidrug Efflux Pumps in the Stress Response of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to Organic Contamination
… and antibiotic resistance development. PCP, 2,4-dinitrophenol, benzoate and Roundup® all induced antibiotic resistance. However, although MexAB-OprM is required for optimal growth in the presence of all chemicals, this particular efflux pump is only involved in increased resistance with PCP. This …

Influence of pH and NOM on Sorption of Phenols onto Aquifer Material
… of three different phenols (2-methyl-4,6-dinitrophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol and pentachlorophenol) on a natural sandy aquifer material collected from a bank filtration site was studied in flow through column experiments. In first step the sorption coefficients of investigated phenols …

Investigations into mechanisms of magnesium homeostasis in the isolated rat heart
… Uncoupling phosphorylation and oxidation using dinitrophenol (DNP) elicited a highly significant increase in Mg 2t efflux and a concomitant decrease in force. Lactate dehydrogenase activity did not significantly increase during perfusion of the heart with either increased [Na t] 0 or DMP, …

Molecular mechanism of magnesium transport in epithelial cells
… when acini were pre-treated with either 10 mM dinitrophenol (DNP), io M amiloride, 1 mM lidocaine or I mM quinidine there were significant (P <0.05) decreases in net Mg 2 efflux. Replacement of extracellular sodium [Na4]0 with either N -methyl-D-glucamine (NMDCI), or choline chloride resulted …
