Disease relevance of Coniferic acid

 

Psychiatry related information on Coniferic acid

  • Overall, our results predict that a treatment using nitric oxide-releasing ferulic acid may attenuate the processes that drive the pathology associated with Alzheimer's disease if the treatment is initiated before the neuroinflammatory processes can develop [6].
  • We recently reported protective effects of long-term administration of ferulic acid against learning and memory deficit induced by centrally administered beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta)1-42 in mice [7].
 

High impact information on Coniferic acid

  • The encoded enzyme, At4CL4, exhibits the rare property of efficiently activating sinapate, besides the usual 4CL substrates (4-coumarate, caffeate, and ferulate), indicating a distinct metabolic function [8].
  • Although the CAld5H/COMT enzyme system can mediate the biosynthesis of syringyl monolignol intermediates through either route, k(cat)/K(m) of CAld5H for coniferyl aldehyde was approximately 140 times greater than that for ferulate [9].
  • Unexpectedly, the K(m) values measured for the latter two substrates are three orders of magnitude lower than that measured for ferulic acid, suggesting that in lignifying tissues, syringyl monomers may be derived from their guaiacyl counterparts by hydroxylation and subsequent methylation [10].
  • The effects of topically applied curcumin, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, and ferulic acid on 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced epidermal ornithine decarboxylase activity, epidermal DNA synthesis, and the promotion of skin tumors were evaluated in female CD-1 mice [11].
  • Ferulic acid (FA) is an abundantly present phenolic constituent of plant cell walls [12].

Associations of Coniferic acid with other chemical compounds

  • Feruloyl-SCoA is the CoASH thioester of ferulic acid (4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-trans-cinnamic acid), an abundant constituent of plant cell walls and a degradation product of lignin [27].
  • Ferulic acid was far more toxic than caffeic acid to the wild-type strain, although the wild-type strain was more resistant to ferulic acid than was the virH mutant [20].
  • Quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics calculations were utilized to study the process of oxidation of a native substrate (ferulic acid) by the active species of horseradish peroxidase (Dunford, H. B. Heme Peroxidases; Wiley-VCH: New York, 1999), Compound I and Compound II, and the manner by which the enzyme returns to its resting state [28].
  • Xylan, which is a key component of the plant cell wall, consists of a backbone of beta-1,4-linked xylose residues that are decorated with arabinofuranose, acetyl, 4-O-methyl d-glucuronic acid and ferulate [29].
  • Despite its ability to accumulate UV-absorptive flavonoid compounds, the ferulic acid hydroxylase mutant fah1 exhibits more physiological injury (growth inhibition and foliar lesions) than either wild type or tt5 [30].
