Introduction: This study investigated the in vitro inhibition properties of newly synthesized coumarin derivates (C1-C5) against human carbonic anhdyrase I (hCA-I) and jack bean urease. Activities were expressed as IC50 (mg/mL), the concentration reducing 50% of the enzymes. The IC50 values for hCA-I ranged 5.20 µM from 12.10 µM, with compound C3 exhibiting the highest activity. The inhibition values for urease ranged 22.30 µM to 39.00 µM, the highest activity being observed in C5. Conclusion: Comparing the inhibitions with standard inhibitors of the enzymes, while the samples exhibited moderate inhibitions against hCA I, high inhibition was determined against urease.

The inhibitory effects of certain drugs on dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase from the bovine liver have been investigated. Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase [5, 6-dihydrouracil: NADP+ oxidoreductase, EC 1.3.1.2; DPD] enzyme was purified from the bovine liver. The purification was performed by preparation of homogenate, ammonium sulphate precipitation, and affinity chromatography. Moreover, some important modifications were made in the purification procedure. Purification of bovine liver DPD enzyme was obtained with a yield of 12.5%. SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was performed after the purification of the enzyme, and the electrophoretic pattern is discussed in this article. In addition, the effects of certain drugs on bovine liver dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase enzyme activity were investigated. Oxytetracycline, ciprofloxacin, ceftazidime, cefoperazone, amikacin, ornidazole, metronidazole, cefuroxime, cefepime, ampicillin, and amoxicillin, were used as drugs. All the drugs indicated the inhibitory effects on the enzyme. IC50 values of the drugs were determined by plotting activity % vs [I]. IC50 values of oxytetracycline, ciprofloxacin, ceftazidime, cefoperazone, amikacin, ornidazole, metronidazole, cefuroxime, cefepime, ampicillin, and amoxicillin 0.030, 0.046, 0.140, 0.610,1.820, 2.500, 3.600, 4.330, 4.370, 4.920, and 6.300, mM; the Ki constants were 0.050±0.01,0.090± 0.06, 0.130±0.045, 0.185±0.057, 2.010±0.55, 2.096±1.06, 2.115±1.00, 2.700±0.56, 3.730±1.48, 5.240±1.04, and 9.570±2.84, mM for bovine liver DPD, respectively. Ki constants for dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase were determined by Lineweaver-Burk graphs. All drugs showed non-competitive inhibition patterns.

Polyphenols are important secondary products of plants with the potential to inhibit carbonic anhydrases. The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibition effects of various phenolic standards, honey, propolis, and pollen species on human carbonic anhydrase I and II. The inhibition values (IC50) of the phenolics (gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, quercetin, catechin, tannic acid, and chrysin) ranged from 0.009 to 0.32 μg/mL, tannic acid emerging as the best inhibitor. The inhibition values of three different types of honey, heather, rhododendron, and chestnut ranged between 2.32 and 25.10 μg/mL, the chestnut honeys exhibiting the best inhibition. The ethanolic extracts of pollen and propolis exhibited good inhibitory properties, with IC50 values between 0.486 and 3.320 μg/mL. In order to evaluate the phenolic composition of bee products, phenolic profiles and total phenolic contents (TFC) were also measured. The inhibition ranking among the natural products studied was phenolic standards > propolis > pollen > honeys, and inhibition was related to TFC.
