Disease relevance of silver nitrate

  • As compared with historical controls, the incidence of gonococcal ophthalmia neonatorum decreased 83 percent among infants treated with silver nitrate and 93 percent among those treated with tetracycline [1].
  • Here we report that the active principle of AEF extracted from the spleen of mice with silver nitrate-induced AA amyloidosis was identified unequivocally as the AA fibril itself [2].
  • E. coli DNA, labeled in thymine, photosensitized by silver nitrate, and irradiated by 254 nm monochromatic light, was the substrate [3].
  • Using a one-step silver nitrate staining technique, routinely processed tumour tissues of 49 carcinomas of the colon were investigated to demonstrate silver-stained nucleoli (Ag-nus) and argyrophilic proteins associated with the so-called nucleolar organizer regions (Ag-NORs) [4].
  • In the mice subjected to corneal injury with silver nitrate and to intramuscular injection with either saline or a control adenovirus expressing beta-galactosidase (AdLacZ), corneal opacification composed of extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation, of infiltration of neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages, and of angiogenesis were all induced [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on silver nitrate

  • This new method yields more consistent results in fungal staining without background staining, since the reaction time in the ammoniacal silver nitrate solution is prolonged [6].

Chemical compound and disease context of silver nitrate

 

Biological context of silver nitrate

  • In most instances, the blastomere-derived chromosomes did not display silver-nitrate-staining NOR [17].
  • In the majority of cases, when blastomere nuclei remained in interphase, the characteristic silver-nitrate-staining fine reticular material either was not seen, or the nuclear contents were dispersed into clumps of chromatin-like material [17].
  • This dithymidine phosphate analogue is comparatively resistant to hydrolysis by nuclease P1, but the P-S bond is readily cleaved by aqueous solutions of either iodine or silver nitrate [18].
  • Studies of the chemotactic function of control granulocytes after incubation with sera from burned patients yielded similar results; only the sera from patients treated with silver nitrate failed to suppress normal leukotaxis [19].
  • Treatment of this intermediate with silver nitrate accomplished the desired cyclization to the electron-rich pyrrole derivative 2 in moderate yield [20].

Associations of silver nitrate with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of silver nitrate

  • Silver nitrate-stained gel electrophoresis demonstrated MMP and TIMP expression status [29].
  • Moreover, amyloid deposition in apoE-deficient mice as well as C57BL/6J control mice started 48 or 72 hours after injection of amyloid-enhancing factor and silver nitrate, although the amount of amyloid deposit in C57BL/6J control mice was slightly larger than that in apoE-deficient mice [30].
  • We monitored neuromuscular behavior, correlated with acetylcholinesterase and silver nitrate histochemistry at endplates, for changes in the timecourse of in vivo synapse elimination and assayed both thrombin activity and prothrombin expression in developing muscle [31].
  • We used the monoclonal antibodies PC-10, MIB-1, DO-1, 1B1O and EGFR 113 and the colloid silver nitrate (AgNOR) technique [32].
  • In experimental chronic inflammation, daily injection of silver nitrate (AgNO3) resulted in the deposition of 667 +/- 68 ng of amyloid A protein (AA)/mg of spleen after 25 days [33].
