The mechanism responsible for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-albumin internalization by columnar cells in culture obtained from the midgut of Bombyx mori larvae was examined by confocal laser scanning microscopy.

Our previous studies demonstrated interesting features of PAAmMAc particles during interaction with platelets: (1) PAAmMAc particles induce no calcium increase but enhance membrane fluidity of platelets: (2) thrombin induces no calcium increase in platelets when the platelets were mixed previously with PAAmMAc particles; and (3) PAAmMAc particles induce a calcium increase in platelets when they were treated previously with sodium azide (NaN3).
It was also revealed that the suppression of thrombin-induced calcium increase and the membrane fluidity increase in platelets by PAAmMAc particles were reduced by albumin-treatment of the particles.

This increase in Palbumin was inhibited by superoxide dismutase, catalase, or taurine (Palbumin = 0.035 +/- 0.06, -0.39 +/- 0.10, 0.028 +/- 0.06, respectively) and ameliorated by sodium azide (Palbumin = 0.21 +/- 0.03).

When added to faeces, alpha 1-antitrypsin, alpha 1-antichymotrypsin, and prealbumin were resistant to incubation (37 degrees C, 48 h), whereas albumin, IgG, IgM, and IgA were rapidly degraded (within 8-24 h).

Tween-80 or albumin preserved the hemolytic activity in PBS in which cultures of F. necrophorum had been suspended.
However, the addition of sodium azide, an energy metabolic inhibitor, significantly reduced the hemolytic activity.

8785384 Lee SH, Lee MG: Factors influencing the protein binding of azosemide using an equilibrium dialysis technique. Biopharm Drug Dispos. 1995 Oct;16(7):615-26.

The binding of azosemide was independent of the quantity of heparin (up to 40 U mL-1), AAG (up to 0.16%), sodium azide (NaN3, up to 5%), its metabolite, M1 (up to 10 micrograms mL-1), and anticoagulants (EDTA and citrate).
However, the extent of binding was dependent on HSA concentration: the values were 88.4, 91.0, 92.2, 94.2, 94.9, 94.9, and 94.9% at albumin concentrations of 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6%, respectively.

Binding of 125I-t-PA to HepG2 cells was inhibited by monosaccharides fucose and galactose and by the neoglycoprotein fucosyl-albumin.

Here it is demonstrated by using a novel biocompatible precursor that common proteins - albumin, caseins and gelatin - can mediate formation of hybrid nanocomposite materials through catalyzing the sol-gel processes and templating silica generated in situ.

A chromium (III) complex, transdiaqua [N, N'-propylenebis (salicylideneimino) chromium (III)] perchlorate ([Cr (salprn)(H2O)(2)] ClO (4)) in the presence of sodium azide and upon photoexcitation was found to bring about non-selective cleavage of bovine serum albumin (BSA).
