Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
hGSTA 1-1 was inhibited by Malachite Green with a Ki value of the order of 10 microM. The inhibitory species appeared to be the dye-GSH adduct. This isoenzyme was not inhibited by either Crystal Violet or Ethyl Violet at concentrations up to 50 microM. hGSTM 2-2 was weakly inhibited by all three dyes tested with Ki values being in the range 40-80 microM. For all dyes the inhibition was best characterised as non-competitive. hGSTP 1-1 was not inhibited by Crystal Violet or by Ethyl Violet but was strongly inhibited by Malachite Green (Ki = 0.3 microM). The mode of inhibition appeared to be non-competitive but it seems probable that the mechanism is complex. There is at present no evidence to show clearly whether the dominant inhibitory species is the free dye or the adduct.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
