4 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
4.1 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Enzyme Inhibitors

Compounds or agents that combine with an enzyme in such a manner as to prevent the normal substrate-enzyme combination and the catalytic reaction. (See all compounds classified as Enzyme Inhibitors.)


Indicators and Reagents

Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents. (From Grant and Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed, p301, p499) (See all compounds classified as Indicators and Reagents.)


Poisons

Substances which, when ingested, inhaled, or absorbed, or when applied to, injected into, or developed within the body in relatively small amounts may, by their chemical action, cause damage to structure or disturbance of function. (From Dorland, 27th ed) (See all compounds classified as Poisons.)

Parke, D. V. The Biochemistry of Foreign Compounds. Oxford: Pergamon Press, 1968., p. 96


Salmonella typhimurium strain (OASS positive) (OASS, O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase) synthesize a toxic but non-mutagenic metabolite from cyanide and O-acetylserine. Salmonella typhimurium mutant DW379 (OASS deficient) is neither able to carry out this reaction in vitro nor produce the toxic metabolite in vivo. L-Cysteine reverses the cyanide metabolite mediated inhibition and thus allows OASS positive strains to grow in medium containing cyanide and O-acetylserine. The results suggest that the enzyme O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase catalyzes the reaction of cyanide and O-acetylserine to form the toxic metabolite. This metabolite from ninhydrin-positive, adheres strongly to the cation-exchange column, and migrates in thin layer chromatography to an Rf value similar to that of beta-cyanoalanine.

4.5 Mechanism of Action

CYANIDE HAS A VERY HIGH AFFINITY FOR IRON IN THE FERRIC STATE. WHEN ABSORBED, /CYANIDE/ ... REACTS READILY WITH TRIVALENT IRON OF CYTOCHROME OXIDASE IN MITTCHONDRIA; CELLULAR RESPIRATION IS THUS INHIBITED & CYTOTOXIC HYPOXIA RESULTS. SINCE UTILIZATION OF OXYGEN IS BLOCKED, VENOUS BLOOD IS OXYGENATED AND IS ALMOST AS BRIGHT RED AS ARTERIAL BLOOD. RESPIRATION IS STIMULATED BECAUSE CHEMORECEPTIVE CELLS RESPOND AS THEY DO TO DECREASED OXYGEN. A TRANSIENT STAGE OF CNS STIMULATION WITH HYPERPNEA AND HEADACHE IS OBSERVED; FINALLY THERE ARE HYPOXIC CONVULSIONS AND DEATH DUE TO RESPIRATORY ARREST. /CYANIDE/

Evoked release of transmitter at the squid giant synapse was examined under conditions where the calcium ion concentration in the presynaptic terminal was manipulated by inhibitors of calcium sequestration. Simultaneous intracellular recordings of presynaptic and postsynaptic resting action potentials were made during bath application of various metabolic inhibitors including sodium cyanide. Cyanide reversibly depressed the post-synaptic potential. The progressive reduction of post-synaptic potential amplitude was accompanied by a reversible increase in synaptic delay. The time course of block of the post-synaptic potential was similar for different agents and dependant on the rate of presynaptic activity (30-40 min at 0.01 Hz). Recovery of the post-synaptic action potential following block by cyanide was obtained within 40 min. Synaptic depression by the metabolic inhibitors does not result from changes in the presynaptic resting or action potentials, nor from a change in post-synaptic receptor sensitivity. The post-synaptic response to local ionophoresis of L-glutamate was unchanged following the inhibition of evoked release of transmitter by cyanide. Injections of EDTA into presynaptic terminals poisoned by cyanide produced transient increases in post-synaptic potential amplitude, suggesting that cyanide is having its effect through raising intracellular calcium rather than lowering ATP. Control experiments injecting EDTA into unpoisoned nerve terminals showed no apparent effect on evoked transmitter release.
